Worldwide Gen-Set & Cogeneration Directory covers and focuses on the gen-set industry, encompassing companies involved in Combined Heat and Power (CHP) or cogeneration. This stems from the increasing recognition of cogeneration as a highly viable form of reducing greenhouse gases in a decentralised power market, while still retaining a high level of efficiency. This coverage also reflects the dual focus of Worldwide Independent Power - which concentrates on both standby power and CHP.

The growth in recognition of CHP, if not necessarily in its use, and the support it is receiving from some governments, point to an increase in the usage of CHP to improve energy efficiency. With all the benefits that CHP plant can provide to those with high heat and power requirements, as well as the many potential cost savings, CHP should really take off over the next few years, fuelled by liberalisation taking effect in Europe, although the prospects in the US are a little less clear.

Some areas in Asia are steadily picking up after the recession; which could be a driver towards another surge in demand. This view has to be tempered though, with some analysts predicting a slowdown in the US economy and, perhaps, triggering a global recession.

Whatever happens in the global economy and, more specifically, within the independent power industry, it will be covered and analysed in Worldwide Independent Power and Idependent Power Asia.

With all the changes that continue to take place in the industry, this directory is indispensible. Available both in hard-copy format, as well as this online version arranged by industry category,  Worldwide Gen-set & Cogeneration Directory is a simple-to-use, yet comprehensive aid to the industry.
