Databases

DOE has supported the development of several combined heat and power (CHP) and distributed energy (DE) databases that have proven to be "go-to" resources for end users. These resources include an installation database that tracks CHP projects in all end-use sectors for all 50 states, as well as a database of regulatory requirements for small electric generators. A searchable database of CHP project profiles compiled by the DOE Regional Clean Energy Application Centers (CEACs) is also available.
