Reliable, Clean, Power On Demand.
Cogeneration (CHP) Power Systems
Simultaneous Power and Heat from a Single Fuel Source
Combined Heat and Power for capturing the energy you already pay for into both electricity and usable heat.
The Cogeneration/CHP Advantage
Efficiency That Works in Your Favor
Nearly two-thirds of the energy from typical electricity generation is wasted in the form of heat released into the atmosphere. As compared to the use of typical power plants and on-site boilers, cogeneration captures and uses heat that would otherwise be wasted and dramatically increases overall efficiency.
One Combustion Event, Two Outputs. The Flex Turbine® prime mover burns fuel once. Electricity is produced immediately. Exhaust and jacket heat, which conventional systems vent by design, are recovered and redirected to your thermal loads.
On-Site Generation Eliminates Transmission Losses. Grid electricity typically loses 8–10% in transmission. CHP power is generated where it’s used, so there’s zero transmission loss and power is immediate availability.
Displaces Two Separate Systems. A CHP system replaces or supplements both a grid connection and a standalone boiler, consolidating cost centers and maintenance schedules.
Efficiency Scales with Runtime. The more hours your system runs, especially in facilities with continuous thermal and electrical demand, the greater the accumulated efficiency and financial advantage becomes.

The FlexEnergy Advantage – Engineered Differently, Supported Completely
FlexEnergy Solutions brings something the equipment alone cannot: deep engineering expertise, end-to-end project ownership, and a commitment to system performance over the full life of your investment.
| Site-Specific Engineering Every FlexEnergy system is designed around your actual load data. | Turnkey Project Delivery From feasibility analysis to installation, commissioning, and operator training – FlexEnergy manages the full project lifecycle under a single point of accountability. | Remote Monitoring Our MyPower and MyPower+ remote monitoring system integrates with your existing BMS and provides real-time data and monitoring to keep runtime high. |
| We Are the OEM: Long-Term Service Agreements Our Flex Care service contracts are available to cover planned maintenance for 5 years and up to 20 years. 24/7 emergency support structured to protect the economics of your CHP investment from day one. | CARB Certified For California customers, the Flex Turbine® GT333S is Certified for pipeline natural gas use to the California Air Resources Board (CARB) Distributed Generation Standard. | Fuel Flexibility by Design Our systems are built for multi-fuel operation – so as natural gas gives way to biogas or hydrogen blends, your system remains viable without capital replacement. |
Cogeneration System Benefits – Measurable Returns Across Every Dimension
FlexEnergy CHP solutions are engineered to deliver benefits that show up on your energy bills, your balance sheet, and your emissions reports, not just on a spec sheet.
80%+Combined system efficiency vs. ~35% for grid power alone | 30–50%Reduction in total energy costs for qualifying facilities | 40%Lower carbon emissions vs. separate heat and power systems | 3–7 yrTypical simple payback period for commercial & industrial installations |
- Energy price stability – lock in a predictable cost of generation
- Resilience – maintain critical operations during grid outages
- Demand charge reduction – lower peak-period billing from utilities
- Potential revenue through grid services and incentive programs
- Sustainability credentials – measurable emissions reduction for ESG reporting
Cogeneration delivers the greatest return in facilities with simultaneous, year-round demand for both electricity and heat. These are industries where the economics are consistently compelling.
