    Aspects of using the small-scale combined heat and power modules in buildings is presented in this paper. At first the problems of energy demand analysis, which is the key point of a co-generation plant sizing procedure, are discused. Then the demonstration project of a small-scale co-generation plant is presented. The plant is fuelled with natural gas, and it supplies energy to a group of three different buildings. Basing on this case, the problems of optimal sizing of a small-scale CHP plant for a building energy supply system are presented and discussed. Calculation procedures are shown together with the results of sample analysis. The factors influencing the final configuration of the system are indicated.
