Yes, mCHP units can be used for a home. Units in the 1-3 kW range can provide heat and power for a standard 1,800 sq ft home. Larger homes with greater demands including a pool, or multi-family dwellings would require a unit from 3-10 kW of power. Large apartment buildings, commercial establishments and light industrial use may require units sized from 10-50 kW of power. For large industrial/institutional buildings with high demand loads, CHPs in the 50 kW+ range are not uncommon.
