Event Summary
This course will cover the opportunity to generate clean power on natural gas pipelines, without the need to burn gas. The technology is called a natural gas turboexpander generator, and it uses the pressure and flow of natural gas to spine a turbine and generate clean power. This technology has unlocked new business opportunities for North America’s natural gas pipelines to create economic and environmental value for pipeline stakeholders.
Attendees will receive 1.5 Professional Development Hours upon completion.
Learning Objectives
- What are turboexpanders? How do they work?
- Where can you deploy turboexpanders?
- What can you do with the power generated by a turboexpander?
- Building the “Carbon Negative Regulating Station”
Who Should Attend
Executives interested in learning about clean energy solutions, sustainability/new technology/environmental teams, technicians looking for new ways to use the pipelines.
