Comprehensive Energy Solutions Delivering Electricity, Cooling, and Heating from a Single Integrated System
The BROAD CCHP (Combined Cooling, Heating & Power) System delivers a comprehensive energy solution by integrating cogeneration and thermally driven absorption technology to produce electricity, chilled water, and hot water, all from a single waste heat powered plant. This trigeneration system harnesses exhaust heat from gas turbines or generators, channeling it into high-efficiency absorption chillers for cooling and into heat recovery units for space or process heating.
Capable of achieving total system efficiencies between 60%–80%, BROAD's CCHP solutions dramatically reduce lifecycle energy costs, carbon emissions, and reliance on grid electricity. With the same lithium bromide absorption core used in our chillers, BROAD CCHP units eliminate CFC/HFC refrigerants while enhancing part-load performance through industry-standard vacuum system control and heat exchanger integrity.
Proven in large-scale applications such as university medical campuses (e.g., University of Maryland), district heating networks, and industrial facilities, BROAD's CCHP systems provide plug-and-play distributed energy, even in locations with constrained grid eligibility, supporting decarbonization, resilience, and ROI across commercial, industrial, and institutional sites.
