The source notes that a site may contain more than one CHP scheme; the capacity categories have changed since publication in the 2013 Digest. Additionally, MicroCHP schemes installed under FIT are not included in these figures. At the end of 2015, 498 such schemes were registered on Ofgems Central FIT Register totalling 0.51MWe.
This statistic displays the total capacity of installed Combined Heat and Power (CHP) schemes with a capacity between 100 kilowatts electrical and one megawatt electrical in the United Kingdom (UK) from 2010 to 2018. It shows that the total capacity of these installation schemes increased significantly over this period from 196 megawatts electrical in 2010, to 351 megawatts electrical in 2018.
