Problem
Reliable power is essential for off-grid and unstable grid environments, particularly for critical infrastructure like telecom towers. Traditional power generation methods often involve high operational and maintenance costs, significant noise pollution, and substantial emissions, impacting both efficiency and environmental compliance.
Solution
Bladon Micro Turbine provides a clean, quiet, and reliable power generation solution through its Micro Turbine Genset (MTG). This technology utilizes patented microturbine and air-bearing systems to deliver continuous power with minimal maintenance requirements. The MTG is designed for fuel flexibility, allowing operation on diesel, kerosene, or HVO, and significantly reduces operational costs and environmental impact compared to conventional diesel generators. Its modular design and advanced air-bearing technology eliminate the need for engine oil and liquid coolants, further simplifying maintenance and reducing waste.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes telecom operators, tower infrastructure companies, and providers of remote or backup power solutions in off-grid or unstable grid environments.
Features
- 12kW (15kVA equivalent) power output from a variable speed microturbine engine.
- Fuel flexibility supporting diesel, kerosene, paraffin, or HVO, with blending capabilities.
- Air-bearing technology eliminating the need for engine oil, liquid coolant, or grease.
- Single annual in-situ service requirement, reducing site visits by up to 90%.
- Ultra-low emissions, meeting EU Stage V equivalent standards.
- Low noise operation, rated below 60dB(A) at 7 meters.
