# Qnergy

> Qnergy is an Ogden, Utah cleantech manufacturer that builds Free Piston Stirling Engine generators to mitigate methane emissions at the source. Its PowerGen systems turn waste methane and other gaseous fuels into reliable, grid-quality remote power - and can destroy methane while doing it - serving oil and gas operators, landfills, livestock farms, and other off-grid sites worldwide. Led by cleantech veteran Ory Zik, the company has deployed thousands of units, abated millions of tonnes of CO2e, and is expanding into landfill gas abatement and voluntary carbon markets.

- **Founded:** 2009
- **Headquarters:** Ogden, Utah, United States
- **Founders:** Ory Zik (CEO)
- **Team size:** ~85 employees
- **Products:** PowerGen Series, Air / CAP Pneumatics, TORCH4, Vapor Recovery Unit (VRU), Qnergy Dashboard
- **Notable:** Only company with a commercial Free Piston Stirling generator., First generator to enable 100% methane destruction, exceeding EPA guidelines by orders of magnitude in third-party testing., Thousands of units deployed since 2018 across multiple continents.

## Products & services

- **PowerGen Series** — Free Piston Stirling Engine generators available at 600, 1200, 1800 and 5650 watt levels that convert natural gas, propane, biogas and associated gas streams into grid-quality remote power with minimal servicing and low total cost of ownership.
- **Air / CAP Pneumatics** — Compressed air pneumatic solutions engineered to replace methane-venting pneumatic devices at gas well sites with clean compressed air.
- **TORCH4** — A landfill-gas-powered Stirling Engine generator and enclosed flare system built for small, unregulated landfills to mitigate methane and reach compliance with minimal operating cost - described as the only system capable of reliable unmanned operation on landfill methane.
- **Vapor Recovery Unit (VRU)** — Vapor recovery for smaller tank storage systems, capturing gas that would otherwise be vented.
- **Qnergy Dashboard** — Remote monitoring and control platform for tracking and managing deployed units.
- **CLEAR Carbon Credits Program** — A program that converts verified methane abatement from deployed systems into voluntary carbon credits sold to buyers such as Climate Investment.
