Raising the Standards
Our Facilities
Equipment
We offer many equipment solutions including Cat, Waukesha, Cummins, White Superior, etc.
We are the exclusive distributor for Siemens and Scania.
Services
We service fracturing (frac) rigs, natural gas compressors and power generators, including emergency standby, prime power and Combined Heat and Power (CHP). Anything with an engine and whatever it drives, we can service. We have experienced techs who can work on diesel and natural gas engines.
Solutions
We are solution driven. We work with our clients to determine what they truly need and build a solution that is specifically designed for what they are looking for.
We can provide 150KW to 2MW Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems with a single unit and have the ability to parallel up from there.

Why Every Microgrid Should Contain a Natural Gas Generator: A Sustainable Solution for Uninterrupted Power Supply
A microgrid is a localized group of electricity sources and loads that can operate independently of the traditional centralized power grid.
Microgrids can include a variety of different power sources including renewable energy resources.
Typically, a microgrid consists of several essential components some of which are listed below:
Energy generation resources like; solar panels, wind turbines, fuel cells, D-UPS, diesel generator, or natural gas generators.
An battery energy storage system, BESS, to store excess energy and provide power when the solar and wind cannot.
A load (typically the group of electricity consumers on the microgrid).
A microgrid controller that controls and optimizes the generation, consumption, and storage of energy.
A controller and switching system that enables the microgrid to switch between operating in utility-connected or island mode.
An advanced communication system that enables the coordination and optimization of the microgrid’s elements.
A CASE FOR METHANE FUELED ELECTRICAL POWER GENERATION: PART 4 – POWER DENSITY
In Part 1 of this series we discussed greenhouse gas emissions, how they are applicable to methane and other energy sources including solar PV and batteries, and why the responsible use of methane must be considered as a viable energy source for the production of electricity.
In Part 2 of this series we took a look at energy return on energy invested, EROEI, for various energy sources and showed how methane had a much higher EROEI than many fuels including approximately three times that of solar PV.
In Part 3 of this series we examined the flexibility of methane as a fuel in comparison to hydrogen. Specifically we looked at; ease of access, affordability, safety, and transportability. Methane has advantages over hydrogen in every category.
In Part 4 of this series we will focus on power density and why this is a critical consideration for microgrids or any power system.
A CASE FOR METHANE FUELED ELECTRICAL POWER GENERATION: PART 3 – FLEXIBILITY
In Part 1 of this series we discussed greenhouse gas emissions, how they are applicable to methane and other energy sources including solar PV and batteries, and why the responsible use of methane must be considered as a viable energy source for the production of electricity.
In Part 2 of this series we took a look at energy return on energy invested, EROEI, for various energy sources and showed how methane had a much higher EROEI than many fuels including approximately three times that of solar PV. This led us to conclude that EROEI must be a heavily weighted factor when calculating the economics of power generation system.
In Part 3 of this series we will focus on the flexibility of methane as a fuel source compared to hydrogen.
