Capstone Green Energy Secures Repeat 1MW Order for District Heating Application in Italy
Capstone Green Energy Corporation (NASDAQ: CGRN) announced a follow-on order for a C1000 Signature Series microturbine from IBT Group, its authorized distributor in Italy, to power a district heating plant in Bardonecchia. The microturbine, scheduled for commissioning in December 2023, is designed to improve energy efficiency and reduce emissions by integrating heat and power production. This second order follows the successful installation at the Breuil-Cervinia plant in 2016, showcasing the reliability of Capstone's technology. The company continues to focus on low-carbon energy solutions as demand for district heating grows in Italy.
- Received a follow-on order from IBT Group for a C1000 microturbine, indicating customer satisfaction.
- The microturbine will enhance energy efficiency and reliability for the Bardonecchia district heating plant.
- Previous successful installation at Breuil-Cervinia led to confidence in Capstone's technology.
- None.
A Cogeneration Power Plant Will Provide Clean, Reliable Electricity and Thermal Energy
“District heating is an ideal use for Capstone’s microturbines. By combining heat and power production for an area, so many efficiencies are gained compared to distributed and disconnected buildings and boilers. We are always happy when our customers return for a second order because they have first-hand knowledge of the value and reliability of Capstone technology,” said
A natural gas-fueled C1000S microturbine will enable the continuity of electrical energy and heat service for the area’s population and provide increased energy security. In district heating systems, each user’s boiler is removed and they are connected to a single hot water distribution network. This makes it possible to produce heat at higher efficiency levels and with better emissions control. When the heat is produced through a cogeneration plant, the production cycle works more efficiently resulting in increased energy savings.
In 2016, Energetica S.p.A. commissioned a Capstone microturbine for the Breuil-Cervinia district heating plant. Having exceeded the company’s expectations with the first installation, plant operators selected Capstone’s innovative microturbine technology again as a trusted source of clean and reliable energy. The application provides the best economic value to the customer and is designed to lower energy costs, increase resiliency, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
“Our customer was already familiar with Capstone’s highly efficient cogeneration systems. This repeat order demonstrates that they clearly value both the power reliability offered by low emission, clean energy microturbine-based systems,” said
