Etalim Inc. has dedicated 17 years to developing a unique thermoacoustic generator set (genset), 1GEN, that at volume will a cost effective wellsite electrification solution. It has no sliding or rotating parts, making it ultra-reliable and maintenance-free. The technology burns field gas in an external combustion system, making it insensitive to fuel impurities. It is optimally sized and has ideal characteristics for powering gas wells. This Canadian-designed and built genset is ready for manufacturing scale-up and is undergoing field testing at TRL8. Natural gas producers in Western Canada have expressed strong interest in deploying this technology to electrify gas wells to eliminate methane venting. The goal of this project is to establish pilot production, deploy 15 units in the field toward TRL9, and secure initial unit sales.
