Home About Us System Design & Benefits CHP Facility Upgrade Information Contact Us System Design & Benefits As a combined heat and power (CHP) plant, district energy system and micro-grid in one, MATEP provides efficient, sustainable, reliable and resilient energy. System Defined Features A co-generation or CHP plant, MATEP simultaneously generates electricity and useful thermal energy from the combustion of a single fuel. As a district energy system MATEP produces steam and chilled water at a central plant. The steam and chilled water are then piped underground to individual buildings for heating, domestic hot water, sterilization and air conditioning. MATEP is a micro-grid, a power network that can operate independently of the main grid, creating resiliency for the designated area. The combination of the production of electricity, heat and cooling systems in one facility makes MATEP a tri-generation or a combined cooling, heat and power (CCHP) plant.

Using approximately 24 percent less fuel than required to supply electricity from the grid and produce steam with a boiler, the system also prevents emissions of air pollutants, which eliminates as much as 117,500 tons of CO2 emissions per year (the quantity of emissions generated by the electric consumption of 13,000 homes). MATEP has been honored with an ENERGY STAR CHP Award in recognition of outstanding pollution reduction and energy efficiency from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the CHP Partnership.
