Gas Applications

Our gas engines play an enabling role in the transition to renewable energy. They have great application flexibility within natural gas, sewage gas, landfill gas and natural gas sectors.

For some 10 years Applied Power Engineering has been supplying solutions to the Gas engine market in the UK. We began working in the waste gas market within the utility industry as CHP (Combined Heat & Power) packaged units. More recently we have supplied a diverse range of markets from greenhouse CHP and CO2 solutions through to sewage and agricultural anaerobic digestion units.

Our modular CHP with Gas engines, which utilise engine heat to improve efficiency, can be up to 90% efficient. Installing an Applied Power Engineering CHP with Gas engine means that you can operate independently of the grid and generate a valuable new income stream.
