How does the combined heat and power system operate?
When there is demand for heat in the home the system runs, burning natural gas as the energy source. First the heat energy is used to produce electricity and then it is used to heat the home. The freewatt system combines Honda’s MCHP engine-generator technology with today’s most efficient gas heating technology for unrivaled total energy efficiency in combined heat and power delivery. This provides a total energy efficiency that the conventional arrangement of separate space heating and grid-supplied electric power cannot approach.
