Renewables and energy recovery applications

Make the efficiency of our renewables technology work for you. We deliver compressor and expander solutions for these applications:

Geothermal ORC power plants

Anchored firmly at the heart of your binary Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) based power plant, Atlas Copco turboexpanders help you to reliably harness low-to-mind temperature geothermal resources. These resources represent the largest share of the world’s geothermal energy potential.

Waste heat recovery ORC power plants

Many industrial processes produce heat as a by-product. Normally released into the atmosphere, this waste heat can be recovered and turned into useful electrical power. Find out how Atlas Copco turboexpanders help you to convert lost energy from flue, stack or combustion gas into a power-saving asset.

Pressure letdown stations

As natural gas continues to grow as a preferred energy source worldwide, pressure letdown stations are emerging as a growing field for emission-free electricity generation. Atlas Copco’s patented letdown solutions help you to reduce your pressure in an economical way, harvesting true green energy.
