Children’s Hospital of San Diego is installing a 3.4-megawatt co-generation system that will supply approximately 98% of the 200-bed hospital’s power. The system, funded in part by a $2-million loan from the California Energy Commission, will be fueled by natural gas. The generation process will produce 99% of the heat needed for space heating, sterilization, and hot water.
