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.
