UK energy services scheme ends with 1free1 CHP unit ■ Denmark-based supplier of micro CHP systems EC Power has launched a new energy services scheme in the UK that provides customers with low-carbon electricity and heating at a discounted price, with the added bonus ofa free micro CHP system at the end ofthe contract. The new 'x-ergy' scheme marks a breakthrough in the under 20 kWe micro CHP sector. Customers who sign up to a 1 0-year x-ergy contract will have no capital outlay, with fınance being provided by the Co-operative Bank. At the end of the contract customers keep their CHP system, free of charge. EC Power's Managing Director Ashley Grist believes that the scheme is set to change the way some organizations, particularly local authorities and housing associations, buy their energy: 'At the moment it is common practice for customers to negotiate energy prices around contracts oftwoyears but that severely limits the period of price stability and predictability. The x-ergy concept profoundly changes all that by providing customers with a substantial degree of protection against spiralling electricity prices for 1 O years. The x-ergy tariff is directly linked to the price ofgas and the gas price is far more stable than that of electricity. From the customer's point ofview that means more stability and predictability and much less ofa rollercoaster ride.' The x-ergy contracts will include full system installation and comprehensive maintenance throughout the contract period, as well as the 'giveaway' CHP system at the end of the contract period. And, thanks to EC Power' s new-for-old service scheme, systems are replaced when required, so for most customers that will mean they will be left with a practically new CHP system at the end oftheir x-ergy contract. EC Power is part of the Statoil Group, which delivers 1 0% ofgas imports intothe UK.
