Gas turbines and engines that only generate electricity convert only 40% to 45% of the fuel they consume into electricity and cause a great loss of energy as waste heat. Cogeneration and Trigeneration systems save 30-40% in energy consumption by using this waste heat. In other words, a gas turbine or gas engine that generates only electricity converts only 40-45% of the fuel input to electricity, while the efficiency reaches 80-90% in cogeneration systems. Efficiency reaches about 95% in trigeneration systems.

Cogeneration and Trigeneration systems can be applied to industrial facilities that constantly require heating and cooling, such as steam, hot water, hot gases / air, etc. The sectors where Cogeneration/Trigeneration technology is most efficient are the manufacturing industry and service sectors where electricity and heat consumption are high, stable and continuous throughout the day.
