Vergent provides customized microgrid solutions and on-site energy technology systems to help customers meet their carbon reduction, energy savings and resiliency goals. Microturbines run on natural gas, landfill gas, digester gas, renewable natural gas (RNG), associated gas, liquid fuels, and even hydrogen. Well-suited for multiple types of heat recovery, microturbines excel at utilizing waste head to efficiently produce hot water, steam, chilled water, or process heating.

In addition to generating power and heat year-round, the Capstone microturbines can operate as life-safety backup generators to power critical loads during emergencies. Many customers use CHP to extend – or avoid – costly replacements to their existing HVAC equipment. Our specialists will customize and engineer the heat recovery solution for each project based on its unique needs.

With over 100 technology patents, these systems combine an aero-derivative turbine, a magnetic generator, and advanced inverter-based power electronics.  The true beauty of this technology lies in Capstone’s patented air bearings, which allow for zero friction and require no lubrication oil or cooling system. 

Oh, and did we mention?  The microturbine has only one moving part!
