At the beginning of the month, the company received a $2.6M follow-up order from its Switzerland-based distributor for its C200 MicroTurbine® systems. The distributor, Verdesis Suisse SA, ordered the systems which will be deployed at multiple biogas sites throughout Austria, Germany and Spain. Previous microturbines ordered from Verdesis have been deployed in a variety of applications, including biogas, at sites throughout Belgium, France, Switzerland and Germany.

In response to the new order, Beat Naef, Verdesis Suisse SA’s president and chief executive officer, stated, “We have installed Capstone microturbines previously with positive results…We have been impressed with Capstone Turbine’s leadership in clean and green microturbine solutions and we look forward to working together in the future.”
