The objective of the NAMA is to implement 40 small scale high efficiency CHPs plants, ranged from 40kWe to 1000kWe, with a total capacity of about 20MW, at sites where heat loads exist throughout the year such as hospitals, hotels, residential living blocks, industrial enterprises etc. The total country potential of such CHPs is much higher and may reach 80 units and more. The heat produced by these small high efficiency CHPs will be used at sites where CHPs are built. The electricity produced will cover the sites’ needs and the surplus will be delivered into the electric network. Internal Combustion Engines (ICE) CHP technology fueled by natural gas was selected as the most reliable and cost effective technology to implement through this NAMA. The NAMA project implementation is planned for 8 years. The estimates indicate that the implementation of this NAMA will lead to 32% fuel savings resulting in USD 4.39 million annual cost savings for CHPs owners and 41,456 tonnes of CO2 eq per year GHG emissions reduction. The realization of the NAMA will decrease the country power deficit by 3% by the year 2025. The cost of foreign investments to reduce 1 tonne of CO2 in Moldova CHP NAMA project is equal to USD11/tCO2.
