Combined heating, cooling and power (CHCP) plants are one of the most efficient options for meeting the entire energy demand of humankind. Today, they are used very widely arround the world and the use of these has an increasing trend. High efficiency of CHCP plants help to reduce CO2 emmision and this make them environment friendly compared to
other energy supply methods from fossil fuels. In this study, a comparasion of energy demand coverage of a commercial hospital located in Konya, Turkey with a CHCP plant and a conventional system which is installed now, is performed. The electrical load and heat load for both space heating and hot water were obtained by using real consumption data of the hospital for previous years. Economic analysis was performed, the feasibilty and enviromental impact of both systems are compared.
