Renewable Power Systems Belfast & Northern Ireland
BSH Limited designs renewable power systems combining biomass, hydrogen fuel cells, combined heat and power and heat recovery, integrated with heating and cooling through combination fuelled plantrooms.
Renewable Power Systems Belfast reflects BSH Limited's renewable-energy engineering across commercial and industrial buildings. BSH is committed to energy efficiency and helping reduce carbon emissions across the UK and Ireland through promoting the use of future fuels, including hydrogen, and renewable power systems are where that commitment takes engineering form.
Renewable power covers the on-site generation and heat sources that run on renewable or zero-emission fuel — biomass boilers, hydrogen fuel cells, combined heat and power running on renewable fuel, and the heat recovery that turns waste heat into useful energy. Because BSH designs combination fuelled systems that include heating, cooling, combined heat and power, domestic and control systems, the renewable power is integrated with the building's services rather than running as a standalone generation unit.
BSH's consultancy specialisms include biomass heating designs, fuel cell, co- and trigeneration systems, bespoke Electrolyser power systems, and zero-emission H2P hydrogen-to-power grid scale — the equipment basis behind a renewable power system rather than a concept.
Biomass, fuel cells and CHP together
A renewable power system can combine a biomass boiler — using the Atmos wood and pellet fuelled range BSH represents across the UK, Ireland and the East Coast of the United States — with hydrogen fuel cells and combined heat and power running on renewable fuel. Because each source is part of a combination fuelled system, the controls sequence them where each performs best rather than running them in isolation, so the renewable generation is actually used rather than exported or curtailed.
Heat recovery as renewable energy
Heat recovery turns waste heat from on-site generation or process into useful heating, hot water or — through absorption chilling — cooling. Yazaki absorption chilling primarily utilises heat as its main power source, so recovered heat becomes low-carbon cooling rather than being vented, and BSH holds the accolade for the largest trigeneration plant room in Europe in 2012, designed and built for Tesco in Naas, Co. Kildare, Ireland.
Hydrogen as a future fuel
BSH's consultancy specialisms include bespoke Electrolyser power systems, modular Electrolyser manufacturing, hydrogen filling stations, and zero-emission H2P hydrogen-to-power grid scale. Through the relationship with Sime, cast iron condensing boilers can be specified for mixed-gas hydrogen operation, and BSH is the only UK company to utilise four of their boilers to use mixed gas hydrogen as a fuel — giving a renewable power system a staged route to zero-emission generation.

Problem · Reaction · Solution
How BSH can help
Problem
A renewable power system installed as a single technology — a biomass boiler for heat, or a fuel cell for power, without the integration that uses the recovered heat and coordinates the sources — delivers only part of the carbon saving it was meant to, and can run inefficiently because it was sized for one output rather than against the building's real loads. Where the renewable sources are procured separately, the efficiency an integrated system would capture is lost at the interfaces.
Reaction
Unintegrated renewable plant wastes recovered heat, under-uses on-site generation, and makes the staged introduction of future fuels harder because the real operating data is never gathered. Building owners and consultants need an engineering partner who designs the renewable power as a combination fuelled system, using the recovered heat and coordinating the sources.
Solution
BSH designs renewable power systems combining biomass, hydrogen fuel cells, combined heat and power and heat recovery, integrated with heating and cooling through combination fuelled plantrooms. Because the right renewable power depends on your fuel supply and loads, the next step is to discuss your requirements with BSH's engineers.
