The cost of microturbine operation must be compared to the purchase of electricity and purchase of natural gas for the building’s hot water boilers. Rates for natural gas and electricity will vary with time of year, and may vary with time of day. Development of a model is underway that will take real-time data on building loads and rates for electricity and gas and determine a point at which the microturbine should be dispatched. The model should be capable of displaying the net benefit, or cost, of microturbine operation under different operating scenarios.
