The cogeneration system is oneof the methods for the effective usage of energy. The cogeneration system in recent technology is about 30%more effective in reducing fuel consumption and carbon footprint compared to the power and heat productionefficiency for traditional systems feeding by fossil fuels. Over the last decade, extensive research has beenundertaken on the optimization and use of low-capacity internal combustion gas engines in micro-combinedheat-power systems. Problems such as the technology used in the micro-cogeneration system, fuel type andperformance, efficiency of the system, utilization of different fuel types, noise, emission, maintenance problemshave not been solved yet. In recent years, intensive studies have been carried out on the fuel cells that arebeing used for the cogeneration system, but the cost and the low life span of fuel cell cogeneration systems arepreventing it from becoming widespread. With the proposed system, it will be easily applied in small scale placessuch as houses, offices, campuses, hospitals, shopping malls, and electricity and heat production efficiency willbe used effectively for low CO2 emission. In this paper, the integration of an internal combustion engine whichhas 9.8kW and 1500 revolutions per minute (rpm) properties, a synchronous generator and grid connectionhave been successfully achieved. The simulated engine specifications are that three-cylinder and 4-stroke ottocycle. Also, injection type and fuel oil specifications of this engine are carburization and natural gas respectively.The performance results of the proposed system have been obtained by using MATLAB/Simulink.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMühendislikElektrik ve ElektronikEnerji ve YakıtlarArticle16941643386293
