CHP FAQ

Listed below are some common questions that we get asked about the CHP systems.

Can it work off-grid?

No. The EC Power system can only function when connected to a three phase (400V) electrical supply. It needs a significant current to start the generator and can only produce power when synchronised to a three phase grid connection.

Will it produce electricity when there is no need for hot water?

No. The system will only operate when there is a requirement to heat water and the electricity generated will then be used within the property, or exported to the grid if not not needed.

If you wish someone to contact you and to receive more information please enter your details into our CHP Enquiry Form.
