AB  - Gas-based combined heat and power (CHP) has maturedenough to be regarded as the next evolutionary step inpromoting energy efficiency use in the urban environment.Although its potential market is increasing, little researchhas been conducted into the combined technical effects thata high penetration of these units may have on both naturalgas and electric (G&E) distribution networks. This paperpresents a power flow tool that performs a simultaneousassessment on some technical impacts that a highpenetration of heat-driven cogeneration units may have onG&E networks. A case study is presented and results showthat as expected, the gas demand increases as well as thelosses associated with its delivery, while the opposite effectsoccur in the electrical system. However, less evident is theload profile variations distribution networks will experienceand that overall energy losses will vary according to theCHP penetration and the type of technology used. The studyshows that an integrated G&E analysis offers a freshperspective in quantifying the effects cogenerationtechnologies will have on energy distribution networks.
