Flowing Energy is ready to scale on a multi-billion dollar opportunity to make electricity from geothermal and wasted heat
Breakthroughs in design and manufacturing allow us to sell at the same cost per unit of capacity with twice the efficiency and twice the energy density of Organic Rankine Cycle systems.
Our solution is unique
Stirling engines have the highest theoretical efficiency of any engine. Flowing Energy solves three fundamental barriers to their success at scale.
Energy density
Heat exchange inside each cylinder greatly reduces mass
Lubricant-free pistons
Graphite labyrinth design ensures near-perfect sealing with low friction
Fast heat transfer
Unprecedented heat transfer with minimal pressure drop
Game changer for heat to electricity
Solves for the 50% of industrial heat lost as waste per US Department of Energy. Doubles electricity generation per well for Enhanced Geothermal projects.
Geothermal – 150˚C
15-20% efficiency
Industry – 250˚C
22-26% efficiency
Generator sets – 350˚C
29-32% efficiency
Poised to take off
Working Prototype
Developing efficiency curves. Testing to date matches our performance model
Ready to Scale
300 kWe in a 20 foot shipping container including power electronics. Infinitely scalable
Strong Customer Interest
Household names in the industrial and generator markets
