The University of New Hampshire received a $2.3 million Project Grant from the Department of Energy's Renewable Energy Research and Development program (CFDA 81.087) awarded on July 1, 2025, with completion scheduled for June 30, 2026. The award funds the design, engineering, and construction of a back pressure steam turbine (BPST) system at the UNH campus in Lee, New Hampshire. The BPST system will leverage high-pressure steam currently available from the campus cogeneration plant to generate additional renewable electricity, increasing UNH's power generation capacity by approximately 10% while reducing electrical grid demand. By installing the BPST system in parallel with existing pressure-reducing valves, the project will enable electricity generation from steam that would otherwise be throttled for use in campus heating and pump operations. This infrastructure project will enhance both the efficiency and resilience of UNH's combined heat and power plant by optimizing the utilization of existing steam resources. The initiative is expected to benefit not only the university's microgrid but also the local energy grid by improving overall system performance and reducing reliance on external power sources. As a research-intensive land-grant institution with extensive experience in renewable energy technology development and demonstration projects, UNH is well-positioned to execute this cogeneration optimization initiative under the Department of Energy's renewable energy program.Federal Grant Award Summary
