CHP Business Impact Scenario
Scandic Helsinki Simonkenttä
Situated in one of Europe’s coldest climates, the 360-room Scandic Helsinki Simonkenttä encounters several challenges, including winter low seasonal demand, with average occupancy rates around 50-60% in the city. Additionally, the high cost of living and wages in Finland, along with the need for significant investments in energy-efficient technologies, presents further difficulties.
A viable solution to address these challenges could be Combined Heat & Power (CHP) systems. CHP can help reduce energy costs, particularly for electricity. In Finland, the Energia- ja ympäristötuki program offers financial support for investments in CHP systems, providing an opportunity to lower operational expenses while enhancing energy efficiency in the 108-square-foot hotel.

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.

These scenarios are based on publicly available data, primarily from sources such as the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), British Columbia Utilities Commission (BCUC), UK Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS), Deutsche Energie-Informationsdienst (EID), Statistics Finland (Tilastokeskus) and Greek Regulatory Authority for Energy (RAE).
