For a more stable supply of highly efficient and environmentally-friendly energy
  Daegu City Gas CES (Community Energy System) Division¡¯s cogeneration plant is scheduled to provide electricity and heat from natural gas to apartments and single family dwellings for 8000 families as well as schools and commercial facilities. In a cogeneration system small gas turbines powered by natural gas produce electricity and the exhaust drives an absorptive chiller and heats water. Then the heated water (waste heat) is harnessed collectively to supply the demand for electricity as well as air conditioning and heating. This method can increase the overall efficiency of a system and meet an energy surge of over 70% of peak load. It can also supply power automatically in case of an electricity shortage or sell its surplus to KEPCO. In addition, CES eases the burden of the construction of large power plants because it is built to appropriate scale in regions where energy is needed (such as in New Town developments) with a lower construction cost as compared to existing plants. Finally, because it uses natural gas -- clean fuel LNG -- it helps preserve the environment by not polluting the air.
