Cogeneration is the simultaneous production of electricity and useful heat from a single fuel source, typically through the use of a power plant or industrial facility. This process increases energy efficiency by capturing waste heat that would otherwise be released into the environment. Cogeneration systems are also known as combined heat and power (CHP) systems.

This is a cogeneration power station.

Potentially. This would depend on the size of the cogeneration, and on the location in the electrical grid. Generally, the larger the cogeneration, the more requirements will be placed on it to act like a typical power plant (specific MVAR/MW output within specified power factor ranges, must stay online for faults, etc.).
The definition of the word 'cogeneration' means that electricity is produced from either an engine or power station and that the electricity is turned into useful heat.
In Cogeneration Plant : The generated steam in boiler is used for both power generation & process heating, thereby reducing the condenstion losses compared to thermal power plant. In combined cycle first is gas turbine , rather than wasting the flue gas from gas turbine, we are sending it into boiler and again generating steam for running steam turbine. Both the ways we are increasing the thermal efficiency of the plant
Did you mean "cogeneration"?

Cogeneration, or combined heat and power (CHP), is the production of electricity and useful thermal energy (such as heat or steam) from the same fuel source in a single process. This process increases the overall efficiency of energy production compared to separate generation methods.
All US Federal guildlines apply to Puerto Rico, so tha answer is Yes
In a power plant, energy is lost as heat through various processes such as combustion, friction, and inefficiencies in converting energy from one form to another. This lost energy contributes to the overall inefficiency of the power generation process.
