Abstract

A combined heat and power (CHP) system supplys those both energies at very high efficiency. It has high potential for reduce CO2 emission from consumer sectors, especially in northern region, which has high demand for heat energy. On the other hand, introducing CHP system has a possibility to change heat and power supply chain and produce economic percussion in the region. In this study, input-industry relation analysis was applied for introducing CHP system in Hokkaido and investigated the potential of economic percussion for the Hokkaido region. The results show that the economic percussion of introducing CHP system cause to reduce in “Electric” division and to increase in “Gas” division. And the effect is different depend on a power source of grid connected electric power which CHP system replace, such as thermal power source and all-mixed power source. The analysis also shows that the economic percussion has effect for the domestic industry sector but not for Hokkaido region.
