Sapphire Technologies Partners with Tallgrass and Evolve Energy for Largest US Installation of Turboexpanders to Generate Clean Energy + Reduce Carbon Footprint

--News Direct--

Sapphire Technologies, developer and manufacturer of energy recovery systems for hydrogen and natural gas industrial applications, has partnered with Tallgrass Energy, a leading US energy infrastructure company, to pursue a nationwide clean energy project to install over 72 turboexpander systems over the next 3 years. Evolve Energy, a leading critical infrastructure and data center service company, has partnered with the firms to develop a turboexpander process control system capable of responding to the variable temperatures, pressures, and flow rates of the natural gas pipeline network. Evolve will provide integration services for Tallgrass, and the clean power generated by Sapphire’s turboexpanders will be consumed in Evolve’s data centers. This installation is Sapphire Technologies’ largest deployment of turboexpander systems in the US to date.

Sapphire Technologies’ FreeSpin® In-Line Turboexpander will provide Tallgrass with unique technology that decarbonizes the pipeline, allowing the firm to reduce its greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction targets rapidly. Tallgrass Energy selected Sapphire Technologies’ turboexpander because it is a low-capex, low-opex clean energy technology.

"This exciting partnership provides us an opportunity to tap into the US market using our turboexpander technology with Tallgrass Energy,” said Freddie Sarhan, CEO at Sapphire Technologies. “Our partnership with this industry leader will help them decarbonize while deploying clean energy solutions across the United States.”

“We are looking forward to the adoption of Sapphire Technologies’ turboexpander systems into our pipeline infrastructure and are confident this partnership will help ensure we achieve our mission of providing leading energy solutions that create a cleaner energy future,” said Justin Campbell, VP of Power and Transmission at Tallgrass Energy.

The turboexpander project is believed to be the single-largest supply agreement for turboexpanders sold into the midstream sector, highlighting the U.S.’ continued adoption of clean energy technologies.

“Evolve is excited for this opportunity to work with Sapphire Technologies and Tallgrass, where we can utilize our experience to power data centers utilizing clean energy,” said Tye Johnson, CEO at Evolve. “We hope to continue partnering with companies that prioritize clean energy projects by deploying new and exceptional technology.”
