Abstract

In this paper the authors analyze different alternatives to provide energy utilities to a hospital center with cogeneration systems with diesel engines and gas turbines. The study considers several power sizes and control strategies, so it shows the influence of these parameters, showing that in this case the options with diesel engines are more efficient than the equivalent ones with gas turbines.
