In addition, with global economic concerns at a high, climate change worries have been pushed to the backburner.

Capstone Turbine has been supplying its microturbines to Chinese companies for years. Back in 2009 the company added two distributors in China focused on securing biogas applications in landfills, agriculture and wastewater treatment plants. Microturbines are small power generation systems using a gas turbine engine, based on related turbines used in transportation. Fuel cells have been accused of being expensive, leading competitors such as Capstone Turbine to argue that microturbines hold a brighter future.
