Abstract
Today we are challenged with increasing concerns over global climate change, dependency on depleting hydrocarbon forms of energy, the growing scarcity of water resources to support quality of life infrastructure, and sustainability of infrastructure development on natural resources under current technologies and practices. Our future depends upon the development and commercialization of technologies in the field of renewable energy sources for cogeneration or combined heat and power (CHP). These renewable sources could include biomass, biogas, synfuels, and solar power.
