Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc. (the "Company” or “Capstone”) (OTCQX: CGEH), together with its subsidiaries, a leading provider of clean technology solutions using ultra-low emission microturbine energy systems, announced completion of its 6.6-megawatt combined heat and power (CHP) microturbine system at a renewable energy facility in North Carolina. This waste-to-energy project marks a meaningful step forward in the customer’s operational strategy by monetizing swine waste through a proprietary pyrolysis process to produce renewable biogas. Capstone’s microturbines will convert this on-site biogas into 100% renewable electricity for grid export, while simultaneously delivering high-value thermal energy to support the facility's internal operations. This integrated approach enhances project economics, improves energy efficiency, and creates a scalable model for recurring renewable power generation and long-term revenue growth.

The project was secured by E-Finity Distributed Generation, Capstone’s distributor for the Mid-Atlantic, Southern United States, and Caribbean region. The array consists of one Capstone C600S microturbine and six Capstone C1000S microturbines, scheduled for final commissioning in March 2026.
“The project represents a significant shift in agricultural waste management. By utilizing pyrolysis, a thermochemical decomposition process, the facility transforms organic swine waste into a clean-burning biogas,” said Vince Canino, President and CEO of Capstone Green Energy. “Our Signature Series microturbines are uniquely engineered to handle a wide operating window, along with variable compositions of renewable biogas – providing a resilient and low-emission alternative to traditional reciprocating engines. By converting agricultural waste into dependable renewable power and capturing microturbine waste heat for productive use, we create a true circular economy that delivers lasting value to the surrounding community.”
The system also functions as an odor-control solution, reducing environmental impacts while supporting local renewable energy goals. In addition to producing renewable electricity, the facility is expected to generate Carbon Emission Reduction (CER) credits.
“Projects like this show how distributed generation can provide real operational and environmental value,” said Jeff Beiter, Founder and CEO of E-Finity Distributed Generation. “By converting agricultural waste into renewable power and usable heat, the system supports odor control, improves efficiency, and enables the generation of carbon emission reduction credits, helping align economic performance with ESG goals.”
For nearly four decades, Capstone Green Energy has been a leader in clean technology, pioneering the use of microturbines to revolutionize how businesses manage their energy needs sustainably. In collaboration with our global network of dedicated distributors, we have shipped over 10,600 units to 88 countries, helping customers significantly reduce their carbon footprints through high-efficiency, on-site energy systems and microgrid solutions.
