CEWT TriGen Pilot – Key Differentiator Summary

Most distributed power solutions for data centres focus primarily on low-emission power generation. CEWT TriGen extends this concept by integrating power generation, cooling, thermal recovery, renewable hydrogen, CO₂ capture, and renewable gas (RNG) production into a single system architecture. Key Differentiators of CEWT TriGen: • Power Generation – Provides reliable dispatchable power for data-centre applications. • Cooling Integration – Utilises recovered thermal energy to support absorption cooling systems. • Waste Heat Recovery – Improves overall system efficiency through thermal integration. • Renewable Hydrogen Integration – Incorporates renewable hydrogen as part of the carbon recycling process. • CO₂ Capture – Recovers CO₂ generated during power production. • CO₂ Utilisation – Uses captured CO₂ as a feedstock rather than treating it as waste. • Renewable Gas (RNG) Production – Converts captured CO₂ and renewable hydrogen into renewable gas. • Closed Carbon Loop – Creates a pathway toward circular carbon utilisation rather than one-way emissions. Strategic Positioning: Most data-centre energy solutions stop at power generation. CEWT TriGen extends the value chain by recovering thermal energy for cooling and recycling captured CO₂ into renewable gas, creating a pathway toward a circular carbon energy system. For data-centre operators, this architecture addresses several emerging challenges: • Reliable 24/7 power availability • Growing cooling demand • Fuel security and resilience • Carbon footprint reduction • ESG and sustainability objectives • Future carbon-management requirements The primary differentiator is not the engine itself but the integrated system architecture. CEWT TriGen combines power generation, cooling, CO₂ recovery, renewable hydrogen, and renewable gas production into a single platform, consistent with CEWT’s broader Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT) vision of defossilisation through system-level integration.
