Capstone Turbine Corporation secured a contract to employ its microturbine technology at a new renewable energy facility that generates electricity from biogas.
Capstone recently agreed to deploy a microturbine generation system for a French biogas plant, helping to provide critical baseload renewable energy infrastructure to the nation. Capstone’s microturbine design can generate electricity from both biogas emissions, such as methane from green waste and livestock manure, and more traditional power sources.
“Capstone is excited to be an essential part of the development of these biogas projects and helping create renewable biogas-to-energy and renewable natural gas-to-energy projects as the new fuels of choice in the green economy,” said Darren Jamison, Capstone’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Capstone’s strategy has been focused on the fortification of our core energy efficiency and natural resource market verticals while simultaneously diversifying into additional market verticals like biogas and renewable natural gas,”
