1kW Ultra-Reliable Remote Power

The 1GEN, is a new form of ultra-reliable power generator based on thermo-acoustic physics. It produces 1 kW of electrical power from field gas, natural gas, or propane, with ultra-low maintenance (no sliding or rotating parts).
The 1GEN helps better equip remote off-grid well sites with power generation to eliminate pneumatic fuel gas emissions by powering air compressors and electric control.
We help our customers reach compliance with methane emission reduction regulations in the most environmentally challenging conditions.
