Cogentpower:
Precinct-based systems delivering exported energy to multiple buildings

Cogeneration (or trigeneration) has the ability to significantly increase the energy efficiency of a given site and reduce carbon emissions by up to 60%, but despite these benefits the technology has struggled to gain traction within the Australian energy market place due to many challenging market conditions and technological constraints. Specifically the inability to connect to an entire site load split across multiple grid feeders and the inability to export energy and gain the benefit of its lower carbon coefficient at remote sites.

CogentPower can only be provided by a distributed generation supplier such as Cogent aligned with a major electricity retailer such as Origin and the purchase of this product allows site owner’s to concentrate on their core business, while Cogent delivers and manages the key energy requirements to ensure the site’s environmental credentials are achieved.

Coca Cola Place – 40 Mount Street, North Sydney

An arrangement between Cogent and Investa represents the first commercial building in Australia to pave the way for precinct-based trigeneration systems that can serve multiple buildings.

Find out more about how Cogentpower has overcome operational challenges and will enable other organisations to share surplus lower-carbon benefits between buildings.

Cogentpower involves:

Customised onsite plant that imports and exports energy.
Cogent’s build, own, operate and maintain (BOOM) cogeneration business model which eliminates the technical and financial complexities, and significantly reduces the risks that site owners may experience when trying to implement and operate their own cogeneration plants.
Exported energy attributed to the customer’s other grid feeders or remote sites.

Cogentpower customer benefits
