Combined Heat and Power Association

The CHPA lobbies the government to take full advantage of CHP technology, seeing 'efficient generation' as a key aspect of climate change policy. Members include major UK generation and distribution networks. The CHPA shares offices at Grosvenor Gardens with a number of other carbon trading, offsetting and renewables/greenwash lobbyists. Ex-Director of the CHPA David Green is now CEO of the UK Business Council for Sustainable Energy, based in the same building.

Activities

In their own words:

'The aim of the CHPA is to promote the wider use of combined heat and power and community heating. To do this, the Association works with its members, Government and other non-Government organisations to:

• address the barriers that currently face CHP and Community Heating;
• ensure that when Government policies are developed they allow CHP and Community Heating to play their full role in delivering economic, social and environmental benefits to the UK;
• educate and inform Government, business and the wider community about the benefits of CHP and the great potential that exists in the UK to take advantage of it. '
