Level I Trauma Center In New York City Chooses MTU Onsite Energy Trigeneration Power System Solution From Rolls-Royce
Combined cooling, heating, and power system expected to generate $1.6 million in annual operational savings.
Rolls-Royce will deliver two MTU Onsite Energy natural gas-fueled combined cooling, heating, and power (CCHP) trigeneration systems to Richmond University Medical Center, a Level I trauma center in Staten Island, New York (USA).
The trigeneration project is being managed by developer Innovative Energy Strategies (IES) and is part of a multi-million-dollar facility expansion adding a substantial increase in treatment capacity. As one of two Level I trauma centers on Staten Island, Richmond University Medical Center recognized the importance of alternative power supply solutions, especially after experiencing the devastation of Hurricane Sandy in 2012.
