Get More Power Independent And Cut Your Total Energy Costs 20% - 70% - Immediately!

You have high power demands, MBS and Flex Energy can help. We can deliver on-site, gas-turbine powered, grid-isolated, grid parallel, or dual-mode power solutions of between 300 kW and 1,300 kW, or 1.3 megawatts, in a matter of months, for a cost that averages about half of what the electric utility charges, with finance charges included. 

Apart from a turbine-powered generator, heat can be used directly, or a pre-chilling apparatus can convert thermal energy to cooling units. ​MBS Engineering has designed and installed a number of natural gas Turbine Cogeneration Systems, helping commercial clients save money on energy, as costs for electricity from the power grid continue to rise.

​Gas turbines (or microturbines) are the most powerful form of clean energy available today. Efficiencies of about 85% are achievable because of the waste heat recovery component of the systems, called cogeneration. These systems cut energy bills, generate reliable power and give the quickest return on investment of any energy system on the market – by far.
