of today while anticipating and preparing for the needs of tomorrow.
CCI has been in the cogeneration
business for many years and built its reputation in the industry with a
"win-win" philosophy. We respond to our clients' ideas and concerns relating

installation and service.
CCI is built on a strong
foundation of industry knowledge and experience which increases our ability
to serve you, our customers, with the most advanced cogeneration technology
available. Our reputation is built upon the success of numerous installations
covering a broad range of system sizes, technologies and configurations.
As an owner and operator of its own cogeneration systems, CCI understands
what is required to meet your energy needs.
Cogeneration is defined
as the production of two useful forms of energy – heat and power – from
a primary source of energy such as natural gas or oil. For instance, cogeneration
systems typically produce electrical power via a reciprocating engine or
gas turbine and recover a large percentage of the heat energy retained
in the lubricating oil, exhaust gas and coolant water systems to maximize
the utilization of the primary fuel. Therefore, cogeneration systems enjoy
an inherently high efficiency and have the potential to significantly reduce
costs of a facility's energy-related operations. Distributive or on-site
premium power has many advantages to meeting your needs!
