Lybæk, R: How to implement Co-generation with District Heati

This research project seeks to discover how developing ‘‘hot‘‘ countries can benefit from highly efficient and mature technologies presently implemented in countries in the North. In order to combat climate change, developing countries also need to adobt to more efficient renewable energy technologies in the future. Thus, biomass based co- generation with supply of district heating is a favorable technology, as it generates both power and heat, and enables distribution of the latter to industries or households etc. This study reveals where and how to implement such efficient energy technologies in ‘‘hot‘‘ countries in the South, where the heat demand is limited. This is done by emphasing on an energy system development in a case area in Thailand; Navanakorn Industrial Promotion Zone. The contribution from the research study is a ‘‘Guideline‘‘ of how to implement such projects in Thailand, or in other countries in the South.
