247Solar - Model Heat2Power -Atmospheric Pressure Hot Air Turbine
The 247Solar Heat2Power turbine is the first commercial turbine to produce power using atmospheric-pressure hot air, with no combustion or emissions. With the 247Solar Heat2Power turbine, industrial facilities that produce hot exhaust can now harness an otherwise-wasted resource to power operations. It works when high-temperature industrial exhaust gas (min. 850?/1500F) is supplied to the turbine at ambient pressure, where it passes through a proprietary high-temperature heat exchanger. This transfers the heat to the turbine’s compressed air, which enters the turbine’s expander at the required pressure and temperature to drive the turbine. No fuel is required, and no emissions are produced by this process. Industrial facilities can also sell this emissions-free power as an additional revenue stream.
247Solar’s unique turbine uses hot air instead of fuel to produce up to 200 kWe on demand.
The Heat2Power™ turbine can also burn almost any liquid or gaseous fuel – from dirty flare gases and landfill methane to natural gas, diesel, and even 100% hydrogen.
It is a key component that makes possible our 247Solar Plants™ and HeatStorE™ storage systems.
