CHP Business Impact Scenario

Radio Tower Hotel, NYC

With high commercial electricity prices, the 23-story Radio Tower mixed-use property and its 89,000-square-foot, 221-key boutique hotel in Northern Manhattan face significant cost challenges, including some of the highest commercial electricity rates in the country.

 

Combined Heat & Power (CHP) systems could be a great solution, aided by New York State's energy-efficiency incentives. The recaptured heat from CHP can be used for space and water heating, offsetting natural gas consumption.

Key Benefits*

  • Energy Cost Reduction: Lowers the cost of electricity from 18.1 cents per kWh to just 2.8 cents per kWh and reduces energy costs by nearly $283,000 in the first year while eliminating service charges.

  • Financial Value: Generates a ten-year value of $7.2 million, including $4.2 million in increased asset value.

  • Return on Investment: Delivers a 75% Internal Rate of Return.

CHP Business Impact Scenarios use current energy data to make projections and exclude financing and incentives to estimate the Internal Rate of Return and Ten-Year Value. These figures are preliminary estimates, with more accurate projections to be determined by the Combined Heat & Power Primary Energy Accelerator.
