Gas Turbine Power For K-12 Schools And Universities

Heat Is Mission-Critical For Safety And The Comfort Of Your Students

A gas turbine or microturbine to heat or power your school just makes good sense. Best of all, the total cost is less than half what you're currently paying for electric. Let's face it - beside taking longer, electric just isn't that efficient - typically running at 30% efficiency, next to natural gas' 85% efficiency.  

MBS Engineering, as natural gas engineering experts, are authorized re-sellers of high-end gas turbines from a variety of world-class vendors. Our aim is to deliver reliable power, and remedy high electric bills costs - tailored to your need and budget. Learn about one manufacturer (Flex Energy) and their gas turbine. ​​

Gas Turbines Represent A Quantum Leap In On-Site Power

Cost

• Cheaper Than Electric Utility, Even With Finance Charges
  Typically about half of the $0.15 to $.30 per kWh - financing and gas cost included​
• You Own The Microturbine After Financing, And It Can Be Redeployed
  Take power generation control back from the utility company​​

Environment

• Advanced Combustion Controls And Lowest Emissions In Its Class
  Power like this simply can't go cleaner than natural gas and Flex Energy/MBS
• Utility Electric Is Only 30% Efficient
  Microturbines push 85% (with cogeneration)​
• Clean Waste Heat
  Uncontaminated exhaust heat

Reliability

• Power When You Can't Afford Outages
  Natural gas is more disaster-reliable, in addition to being more affordable, than electric 
• Unparalleled Reliability
  Tens of millions of run-time hours and counting

Flexibility

• High Power, On-Site
  Bring power to where you need it, in a compact footprint
• Widest Fuel Tolerance Of Any Small Gas Turbine
  Can run on various gas types, including captured methane (farms)​
• Stand Alone or Grid Connect
  Independent, Parallel, or Dual-Mode

Control

• Power Whether The Electric Company 'Approves'
  More and more, electric utilities are simply turning down industrial electric requests​
• Remote Monitoring
  Complete view at all times

Superior Engineering

• One Moving Part And 8 Hours Of Maintenance, Annually
  Simple and powerful, with maintenance costs are figured into financing​
• Robust Build Quality And A Durable, Weather-Proof Housing 
  Ready for any weather conditions, and suited for heavy industry​
• Load Management Without Batteries
  No high-speed alternator

Ease

• 6 Month Order-To-Install
  Installation time of roughly 2 - 3  weeks
• Maintenance Included
  Not just maintenance costs, but activities, are covered in you financing
