Capstone Green Energy Installing Microturbine at Frozen Processor

Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc., a leading provider of clean technology solutions using ultra-low-emission microturbine energy systems, announced a significant project win with a premier producer of premium frozen Mexican foods.
The company, recognized for its high quality, pepper focused product line distributed across Mexico and the United States, has selected the Capstone C800S microturbine to support its growing thermal intensive manufacturing operations.
The client was seeking a reliable and efficient solution to meet rising energy demands and sustainability goals. The project will leverage the Capstone microturbine’s clean exhaust heat in a Combined Heat and Power (CHP) application.
This thermal energy will be used to preheat water for its boilers and to deliver consistent thermal energy for cooking processes, both mission-critical elements of its production workflow.
By integrating the C800S, the processor aims to significantly reduce energy costs, lower pollutant emissions, and strengthen overall operational reliability.
The adoption of Capstone’s microturbine technology underscores the customer’s commitment to efficient, environmentally responsible manufacturing, while ensuring dependable production capacity to meet ongoing market demand.
“As food manufacturers push to elevate efficiency, reduce costs and enhance reliability, Capstone’s microturbines in CHP applications stand out as a proven, resilient, affordable and sustainable energy solution,” said Vince Canino, president and CEO of Capstone Green Energy. “This project underscores how our innovative clean technology delivers consistent, high-quality thermal energy to empower continuous production, strengthens energy resilience, and drives long-term operational success for our clients.”
The turnkey project, secured by DTC Machinery, Capstone’s exclusive distributor in Mexico and Central America, is scheduled to be commissioned in early 2026.
