June 2, 2010 (FinancialWire) — Capstone Turbine Corp. (NASDAQ: CPST) said that it released the CR200 Medium BTU microturbine product that meets the world's most challenging global emission requirements, including California's stringent waste gas emission standard.

Waste gas typically refers to gas which is produced by the biological breakdown of organic matter. Producing energy from these applications using gas which is otherwise flared avoids the need to use non-renewable resources such as coal, oil, or natural gas to produce an equivalent amount of energy.

Certification to the waste gas emission standard by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) makes approved technologies such as the CR200 much easier to site in California.

Capstone microturbines are capable of burning waste gases with methane content as low as 30%. The CARB waste gas emissions requirements are achieved with Capstone's low premix combustion technology inherent to the microturbine and require no exhaust after treatment.

Capstone Turbine claims to be the world's leading producer of low-emission microturbine systems, and the first to market commercially viable microturbine energy products. Capstone Turbine has shipped over 5,000 Capstone MicroTurbine(R) systems to customers worldwide. Capstone is headquartered in the Los Angeles area with sales and/or service centers in the New York Metro Area, Mexico City, Nottingham, Shanghai and Singapore.
