Hyliion Awarded $6 Million Federal Grant to Advance Methane Emission Reductions in the Oil and Gas Industry
The project will demonstrate the KARNO generator’s unique ability to operate on well-head gas to produce sustainable, near-zero emissions electricity. In 2023, Hyliion successfully tested gas from the Permian Basin, highlighting the generator’s fuel-agnostic design and its capability to utilize unprocessed gas. This distinctive capability positions the KARNO generator as a groundbreaking solution for reducing flaring and methane emissions while delivering efficient, scalable power.
“The KARNO generator is redefining what’s possible in sustainable energy production by turning waste gas that would normally be flared into valuable power,” said Thomas Healy, Founder and CEO of Hyliion. “This funding opportunity allows us to demonstrate the potential of our innovative technology in providing meaningful solutions to combat methane emissions in the oil and gas industry.”
The KARNO generator is an innovative linear generation system powered by heat and enabled by 3D metal printing. Its hermetically sealed design, with only one moving part per shaft, allows for long maintenance-free operation, making it ideal for remote and demanding environments like oil fields. Additionally, its flexibility to operate on more than 20 fuel types, including raw field gas, ensures it can adapt to diverse energy needs while reducing environmental impact.
