TABLE 2-5 Combined Existing and Potential BCHP by Electrical Power Average Demand (MW) Sorted
from Highest to Lowest
It should be noted that from an average electrical power demand standpoint, the
first five sectors (in Tables 2-4 and 2-5) represent approximately 75 percent of the total
average electrical power demand of all the sectors.
Although the schools sector (second highest potential) does not differentiates
between primary schools and secondary schools, a market analysis report by Ryan
