Abstract

This technical memorandum addresses different approaches that can be used to overcome the economic barriers to combined heat and power (CHP) projects. The approaches discussed include payback period, net present value, benefit cost ratio, internal rate of return, and equivalent uniform annual net value. The report includes a case study to better explain the different approaches. Published by Brown and Caldwell and WERF. 40 pages. Online PDF. (2012)
