Towers in Manhattan Gather Heat for Power. By Alec Appelbaum, NYTimes, February 24, 2009. "A small but growing number of commercial landlords in New York are installing energy-efficient power stations known as cogeneration plants, or cogens for short. Unlike conventional power stations, which let excess heat dissipate into the air as exhaust, cogens reuse that cast-off energy for heating and cooling. Given the improved efficiency, combined with government incentives and rising electricity costs, some landlords are now finding it cost-effective to install cogens and generate their own power."
