Distributed Energy

  

Co-generation

Distributed small scale co-generation is more challenging than large-scale power plants, but it is more naturally scaled to human living patterns.

A Steam and Stirling Quasiturbine takes advantage of the fact that a Quasiturbine is a pure expansion engine [hydrostatic turbine], unlike most other engines (except piston engines).
A quasiturbine could be used for moderate to low temperature steam applications.
Small Quasiturbines (under 1 MW) can be operated at very low RPM suitable for generator direct drive.
  • No costly gearboxes would be required.
Quasiturbine Stirling Engines offer a unique energy recovery solution for small applications.
  • a small quantity of water could make the QT-Stirling engine work like a closed circuit steam engine.
