        The J316 is a great fit for any type of application, from peaking to baseload.

        Scope of supply:

        Combined Heat and Power Module (CHP Module) solutions allow customers to generate power and heat simultaneously at a very high total efficiencies, reaching 90% and even more.

        Usual scope of supply:

        • Engine and alternator installed on the frame
        • Control panel, gas train
        • Heat exchangers including exhaust gas heat exchanger

        CHP Modules can generate hot water or steam at various parameters and can be integrated with your existing heat infrastructure. You can select the option that fits your project’s needs among the various heat recovery schemes provided by Jenbacher.

        The scope of supply can be extended further with various balance of plant options (BOP), reach out to our specialists for help in selecting scope of supply and BOP options to fulfill your project’s needs.

        CHP Modules can be installed inside a building or inside a container. To see more details about Jenbacher’s containerized solutions, click here.

        Balance of Plant (BOP)

        The right auxiliary equipment is of critical importance in ensuring that a power solution is economically feasible and provides your business with reliability, availability, and efficiency. Click on the provided BOP options to learn more.
        Reach out to our experts to select the configuration that fits your business’ needs.

        Available BOP elements may vary, depending on the engine and application type.
