Abstract
The increase in efficiency and decrease of pollution are the main objectives in electricity and heat generation. The cogeneration perfectly answers to these issues. The cogeneration installations based on recovered components (RCCI) could be an interesting solution for developing countries having low financial resources. Are RCCI feasible? Are they really efficient? Are they really environmental friendly? The answers to these questions are given in this work. The answers are based on three years operating experience of the first Romanian RCCI, based on GTE 2000 generating set and CAF 6 hot water boiler.
