A Centrica Business Solutions Case Study
Related Companies, a real estate owner/operator, was facing poor performance from six existing CHP units at Manhattan Plaza in New York City. The system was not delivering the expected uptime, savings, or maintenance benefits, so the company needed a better approach to operating and maintaining its Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plant.
Centrica Business Solutions was brought in to redesign the CHP setup and then take over operation and maintenance under a five-year agreement. After evaluating the system and implementing recommended changes, Centrica Business Solutions improved gas consumption, increased power generation, and lifted uptime to over 90%, helping Manhattan Plaza achieve annual savings of £273,000 and reduce its carbon footprint by more than 20%.
