CHPQA guidance note 29: Alternative fuels - energy inputs

Details

For Combined Heat and Power Quality Assurance (CHPQA) all fuel energy inputs must be based on actual gross calorific value (GCV) in the as-fired condition.

Since determination of calorific value (CV) in the laboratory is normally based on dry fuel, knowledge of the moisture content of the fuel as fired is also required.
