AQYLON designs, manufactures and installs Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) solutions for the industrial generation of green electricity. ORC technology makes it possible to generate clean, renewable energy deployable from low to high power ratings with a minimal environmental impact and at a competitive cost.

 

Drawing on its unique expertise, AQYLON offers its industrial customers specialist advice on energy efficiency to help them lower their energy bills. This technology can be applied in a variety of fields such as in industries (cement, glass, metallurgy, incinerators, etc.), power production (diesel or HFO engines), as well as in environment and renewable energies such as geothermal, solar thermal, biogas and biomass.

 

AQYLON offers a standard range of 500 kWe, 1,000 kWe and 2,000 kWe ORC modules for three main applications:

Engine's flue gas heat recovery (gas, biogas, diesel and heavy fuel)

Industrial waste heat recovery (Heat to Power, Waste to Power)

Biomass power plants with or without cogeneration

 

The company also offers custom turbomachinery – ORC modules, and steam turbines – that:

can be adapted to any source of heat > 90°C to recover industrial waste heat, engines' jacket water, geothermal energy, thermal solar energy, etc.;

offers higher than average outputs.

 

The proprietary innovations and software developed by Aqylon can boost performance by up to 25% at a cost of up to 30% lower, and can be adapted for any application.

 

The solutions are flexible and can be optimized for each customer’s specific requirements.

 

What is unique about AQYLON – other than its innovative technology – is its sales approach. Two business concepts are offered :

Direct sales, including product installation and maintenance

A fully financed solution using an ESCO-type model, with zero investment from the customer, against the sale to the customer of the electricity generated, at a price 5 to 30% lower than the customer’s usual electricity cost (PPA)

 

AQYLON is developing in high-growth markets, both in France and abroad. The company plans to participate in a number of international exhibitions in 2015 to raise awareness of its technology and expand its customer portfolio: PowerGen Asia from 1 to 3 September in Bangkok (booth H30), ASME ORC from 12 to 14 October in Brussels, and CREF from 19 to 21 October in the Dominican Republic.
