Capstone C200 Microturbines Going to China

Capstone Receives Order for C200 Microturbines for China Southern Power Grid Pilot Project
Capstone Turbine Corporation - 05.26.2009


Capstone Turbine Corporation (www.microturbine.com) (Nasdaq:CPST), the world's leading clean technology manufacturer of microturbine energy systems, today announced that it has received an order for three C200 microturbine systems for China Southern Power Grid Co., Ltd. ("CSG").

CSG was established on December 29th, 2002 as a result of the power sector deregulatory reform in China. CSG is one of two state-owned power grid companies in China. CSG invests in, constructs and operates the transmission and distribution networks in Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, Guizhou and Hainan provinces and regions.

The low-emission, highly efficient, natural-gas powered turbines will be installed in a 330,000-square-foot CSG dispatch building and serve as a pilot project to show the benefits of microturbines in a combined cooling heat and power ("CCHP") application.

The project also is designed to illustrate how CCHP projects can easily and safely connect to the CSG grid.

The Chinese Science Academy proposed the CCHP pilot project, which will produce 570-kilowatts of clean electricity and about 1,000-kilowatts per hour of thermal energy for the dispatch building.

The electricity will supplement power from the local utility, while the exhaust-heat energy generated by the compact C200 microturbines will be captured and run through an absorption chiller to produce air conditioning.
