CAPSTONE SIGNS 9-YEAR FPP SERVICE CONTRACT ON NEW C1000S TRIGENERATION INSTALLATION AT HISTORIC 100-
VAN NUYS, Calif. -- Capstone Turbine Corp. announced that E-Finity Distributed Generation, Capstone's exclusive distributor for the Mid-Atlantic and Southeastern United States and the Caribbean, signed a 9-year Factory Protection Plan (FPP) long-term service contract covering a C1000S ICHP (Integrated Combined Heat and Power) trigeneration solution installed at a 100+ year old university in Washington D.C.
The Capstone C1000S with Capstone integrated heat recovery modules was originally shipped in February 2019 and was commissioned in December 2019. The Capstone solution is used for 24x7 electrical and thermal generation and is configured as Dual Mode (i.e., capable of providing back-up power to critical loads in the event of a grid outage). The university also installed two 100-ton absorption chillers that enables them to simultaneously produce electricity, heat and cooling thermal energy, making it an extraordinary trigeneration solution.
The university selected the Capstone C1000S ICHP factory-integrated power package primarily due to its clean energy initiatives and energy resiliency requirements. The 9-year FPP provides complete service coverage, including scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, and also includes E-Finity's advanced remote monitoring system.
