OGDEN, Utah, Sept. 12, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Qnergy, the
world's leading clean technology manufacturer of Stirling energy
systems, announces the PG1201 Generator package, designed to
provide prime power between 500W to 2,000W, with the industry's
lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
The mid-power range is becoming a cost driver in many
applications such as upstream well-pad automation and midstream
cathodic protection. PG 1201 covers the need for reliable,
low-maintenance, remote power in that range. The PG1201 Total Cost
of Ownership is $30 per watt over a
three year period, which is about 50% of the competition.
Development of the PG1201 was partly funded by the ARPA-E
GENSETS (Generators for Small Electrical and Thermal Systems)
program. The first public roll-out of the generator package was at
the ARPA-E Energy Innovation Summit on July
9, 2019, in Denver,
Colorado.
PG1201 has undergone months of testing at Qnergy's manufacturing
facility in Ogden, Utah. It is now
being deployed on beta sites for leading Oil and Gas companies. The
PG1201 system complements the larger PG5650, which covers higher
power ranges of 2,000W to 6,000W.
The PowerGen (PG) series uses the same base technology that was
recently recognized by NASA as setting "The longest-running heat
engine ever built."

"Customers told us about a variety of unmet remote-power needs
in the mid-power range, especially as some vendors moved out of
this challenging sector," said Dr. Ory
Zik, Qnergy's CEO. "For us, this was a reason to get into
the sector. We have spent about two years with key customers to
make sure that we designed a solution that meets their electricity
needs while providing the proven reliability benefits of the
PowerGen series, at the lowest possible Total Cost of Ownership to
our customers." He added. "We are thrilled to launch the solution
that our customers asked for."
Utah-based Qnergy is the
world's leading clean technology manufacturer of Stirling energy
systems. Qnergy provides reliable remote power generators for the
500W-10,000W range to help customers improve operational
efficiency, decrease operating cost and reduce emissions. Qnergy's
Stirling generators are an enclosed system that requires no
lubrication, maintenance or repair, delivering tens of thousands of
hours of uninterrupted operation.
