Storage & Containment

Operating a CHP package requires the use of potentially harmful substances, and precautions must be taken, both at the design stage and during operation, to prevent accidental releases. 

There are numerous design and engineering standards and codes of practice for improving levels of safety and reducing the risk to the environment from accidental leaks or spills of hazardous substances. In particular natural gas, Oils & Chemicals are considered.

The UK heat map has been developed as a tool aimed at assisting power station developers consider the opportunities for combined heat and power (CHP) as required under planning policy. However it can also be used by both small and large organisations to help identify the locations where CHP, renewable heat plants and district heating would have the greatest technical and economic potential, and therefore the largest positive environmental impact.
