RIGID HVAC CO., LTD
STIRLING RS1000
From remote sites to critical missions, RS1000 delivers unstoppable electricity power!
Powering the Future with Clean, Reliable Energy.
The Stirling engine is an external combustion engine that avoids the explosive shockwork of traditional internal combustion engines. As a result, it achieves high efficiency, low noise, low emissions, and low operating costs.
Unlike conventional generators, the Stirling Generator can run on a wide range of fuels – from natural gas, biogas, propane, hydrogen, and coal gas to diesel, LPG, and even solid fuels like wood. It can also harness solar thermal energy. As long as the hot chamber reaches 180°C, the engine begins operating, delivering about 25% electricity and 70% usable heat.
Whether you need to supplement unreliable grids or power standalone facilities, the RS1000 ensures that your operations remain reliable, efficient, and sustainable.
