In North Carolina, Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc. completed the installation of its 6.6-megawatt combined heat and power (CHP) microturbine system at a landmark renewable energy facility in North Carolina. This waste-to-energy project marks a meaningful step forward in the customer’s operational strategy by monetizing swine waste through a proprietary pyrolysis process to produce renewable biogas. Capstone’s microturbines will convert this on-site biogas into 100% renewable electricity for grid export, while simultaneously delivering high-value thermal energy to support the facility’s internal operations. This integrated approach enhances project economics, improves energy efficiency, and creates a scalable model for recurring renewable power generation and long-term revenue growth.
The project was secured by E-Finity Distributed Generation, Capstone’s distributor for the Mid-Atlantic, Southern United States, and the Caribbean region. The sophisticated array consisting of one Capstone C600S microturbine and six Capstone C1000S microturbines is scheduled for final commissioning in March 2026.
