CHP - Air Quality Guidance

Title: Air Quality Guidance for Local Authorities

Source: Environmental Protection UK

In common with other combustion appliances, emissions from combined heat and power (CHP) systems should be managed to ensure potential air quality impacts are controlled.

Management of combustion appliances can include product and fuel standards, emissions abatement equipment, regulatory controls and/ or planning controls to restrict where certain appliances can be installed. This guidance aims to help local authorities understand and manage emissions from CHP systems, with a focus on the most  common types found in the small/ medium size range – natural gas fuelled internal combustion engines and gas
turbines.
