The Capstone C200 microturbine is an adaptable, low-emission, and low maintenance power generation system. A turbine-driven high-speed generator is coupled with digital power electronics to produce high quality electrical power. The Capstone microturbine is a versatile power generation system suitable for a wide range of applications. Capstone's proprietary design allows users to optimize energy costs while operating in parallel with an electric utility grid. The Alternating Current (AC) electrical power output from the microturbine can be paralleled with an electric utility grid or with another generation source. The microturbine can act as a Stand Alone generator for standby, backup, or remote off-grid power. Multiple systems can be combined and controlled as a single larger power source, called a MultiPac. The microturbine can efficiently use a wide range of approved hydrocarbon-based gaseous fuels. The microturbine produces dry, oxygen-rich exhaust with ultra-low emissions. Utilizing both the generated electric power and the exhaust heat can provide even greater energy cost savings.
