Based on current cogeneration  technology, a large range of cogeneration capacity is technically  possible for a fixed amount of steam consumption in an  industrial plant. This paper describes a financial approach based  on internal rate of return to determine the preferred  cogeneration capacity for an individual industrial user of steam  and electricity. An assumed hurdle rate is applied to calculate  the expected level of project implementation. Based on energy  data for 112 heavy energy users in Taiwan, the method is then  used to estimate the economic potential of cogeneration. The  results provide a description of aggregate potential for the  firms for base line conditions and for a range of scenarios for  parameters such as fuel and electricity prices, buy- back rate, and  cogeneration technology. 0aCogeneration of electric power and heatxTaiwan1 aFoell, Wesley K., eChairperson1 aMora, Jean-Claude, eExamination Committee0 aPrida Wibulswas, eExamination Committee2 aGovernment of R. 0.
