Ingersoll Rand Microturbines are Extremely Clean Generating Technologies

Gas-turbine-powered generators are the cleanest combustion technology available today


To the extent that current and emerging power technologies permit, world environmental and health standards for emissions are increasingly becoming more restrictive.  Considering the alternatives available for effectively and economically reducing emissions, microturbines and other gas turbine-driven power-generation equipment may soon be the only combustion technologies permitted for continuous on site energy installations.


As standards for air emissions tighten, many facilities using reciprocating-engine-powered generators will face problems with compliance.

Ingersoll Rand's microturbine meets all global emissions regulations


This includes even the most stringent California air emissions standards.  Ingersoll Rand microturbines are currently certified by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) as meeting the requirements of their distributed generation program for both fossil fuel and "waste gas" applications (landfill gas and digester gas).


In fact, the Ingersoll Rand microturbine was the very first microturbine to acheive the most stringent CARB 2007 natural gas certification, and was the only certified microturbine for almost three years!


Microturbines are a committment to energy savings and a clean environment

  • Ingersoll Rand microturbines are designed to be economical, reliable, and environmentally friendly.
  • Growing global change to small, independent on site generators favors clean microturbine energy.
  • Microturbines can operate continuously on hydrocarbon or renewable fuels to either offset utility power or generate renewable power revenue.
  • Cogenerated hot water, space heat, or process heat helps conserve energy resources and reduce global impact.
  • Microturbines offer better energy management and comply with environmental emissions regulations.
