Here is my objection against deletion according to WP:GNG

   If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, 
   it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list.

"Significant coverage" The German CHP sector covers about 30 GW, in the EU it is >100 GW. The question on the economics is important.
"Reliable" Matthes/Ziesing have published this index first in 2011, VKU (association of municipal utilities) payed for and uses it, others reuse it.
"Sources" do not have to be available online or written in English but there are many German sources available which are translateable.
"Independent of the subject" As common in academia, Matthes from Öko-Institut publishes regularly on the COGIX, but there are also secondary sources.
"Presumed" I presume that the COGIX concept is an interesting topic worth an wiki article, as it is an extension of the spark spread methodology for CHP.
