Anax Power generates renewable electricity from the pressure differential of natural gas moving through transmission and distribution pipelines. Most natural gas customers cannot use natural gas at the pressure that it moves through the pipeline, so regulator stations must reduce it to an acceptable amount. This pressure-reduction process is extremely inefficient and substantially reduces the gas’ potential energy. The 250 kW Anax-Star Turboexpander (ASTE) harnesses this wasted energy embedded throughout our natural gas supply infrastructure to generate clean, cost-effective, renewable energy and unlock gigawatts of electricity across the globe.
