In the News
The European Commission said it had drawn up a proposal for a law to promote the combined generation of heat and power, cogeneration, which it says saves energy and combats climate change.
The Commission said in a statement that the directive would encourage EU states to promote cogeneration through a systematic identification and progressive realisation of the national potential for high-efficiency cogeneration.
EU states would have to report on the progress achieved towards meeting this potential and measures taken.
To remove barriers to cogeneration, EU states would have to guarantee that power from cogeneration would be transmitted through the national grid without discrimination.
It would also facilitate access to the grid for electricity produced from cogeneration units using renewable energy sources and from units with a capacity of less than one megawatt.
It would also ensure that guarantees of origin of electricity from cogeneration could be issued on request.

Indonesia Power said it plans to build a new 40-MW geothermal power plant in Kamojang, Central Java.
A company executive Herman Darnel Ibrahim said the subsidiary of the state-owned electricity company PLN is looking for financiers for the US$80-million project.
Geothermal will be a major source of energy to generate power in the future, Herman said.
He said construction of the new plant will take two to three years after fund is available.
He said the project will be built in cooperation with the state-owned oil and gas company.

The Energy Commission has allowed 20 small power generation plant operators to sell electricity produced from renewable energy resources to Tenaga Nasional Bhd, Energy, Communications and Multimedia Minister Leo Moggie said. He said the operators are now working out the commercial arrangements to sell the electricity through Tenaga�s distribution grid system. The commission received 37 applications with a combined capacity of 150 MW under its small renewable energy power programme (SREP), which was launched last year. This move is in line with the government�s plans to use renewable energy to produce 5% of the country�s power generating capacity by 2005. Of the 20 operators, two companies�Bumibiopower Sdn Bhd and Jana Landfill Sdn Bhd�have already signed agreements with Tenaga. Tenaga has also agreed in principle to buy electricity generated by Felda using bio-mass technology. As part of its downstream activities, Felda will construct four 20-MW power stations that will use oil palm husks as fuel.
