Cogeneration


Explanation:
The development of Cogeneration in the Netherlands has shown that this is the most effective utilisation of the produced energy. Indeed, even the technology required for Cogeneration or Combined Heat and Power (CHP) is similar to techniques used in conventional power-generating systems.
