FreeSpin® generates power and cooling from a constant energy source: pipeline pressure. With fast installation and resilient rotating equipment, it helps operators add reliable on-site capacity without added fuel input
Pressure reduction is routine and continuous across operating gas networks.
Active magnetic bearings reduce wear, maintenance, and overhaul requirements.
No added fuel means less exposure to electricity and fuel price volatility.
Verde Power is using Sapphire’s modules as the prime mover in our pipeline generation projects.
Pressure reduction is a continuous operating requirement in the gas value chain. FreeSpin® captures that ongoing energy flow to deliver steady electricity and cooling.
The rotating shaft is supported by active magnetic bearings, which eliminate mechanical contact in normal operation. That reduces wear and extends design life compared with conventional rotating equipment.
The system converts pressure energy already present in the gas stream into rotational energy for electricity generation, while also producing cooling during expansion. No separate combustion process is required.
Baseload projects are a strong fit anywhere pressure is routinely reduced, including transmission systems, processing facilities, distribution assets, and industrial sites with steady local load..
