ElectraTherm's power systems use a simple design, off-the-shelf components and patented expander technology to create exceptional value for customers. The cost is extremely low relative to output – three to four cents per kW hour during payback period, and under a penny per kW hour thereafter. Most customers who purchase an ElectraTherm Waste Heat Generator or Gas Pressure Reduction Generator will make their investment back in energy revenue, savings, and carbon credits in just two short years.
Built on skids, ElectraTherm systems are both modular and mobile, meaning they are easy to transport and install as single units or in clusters. Installation is a plug-and-play event local to the heat source, and with few moving parts, long term maintenance is also minor. ElectraTherm power systems are highly-reliable, built to withstand caustic environments.
ElectraTherm's Twin Screw Expander operates at improved levels of efficiency and reliability compared to conventional turbo expanders, but at 10% of the price. This patented technology allows ElectraTherm to achieve a system price advantage of 35-50% over traditional turbo driven, small-scale power systems.
The electricity generated from ElectraTherm power systems fits the definition of "green power" and will likely qualify for current and upcoming government subsidies to support sustainable, non-polluting energy sources. In the meantime, ElectraTherm power systems offer a quick return-on-investment, even without subsidies.
