SUSTAINABLE ENERGY SOLUTIONS
Environmental compliance and sustainability drive Solar’s product design and development programs.
We help our customers build a better more sustainable world, with products that facilitate reduced greenhouse gas emissions along with better operational efficiency.
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE ENERGY INVESTMENT TAX CREDIT
At Solar Turbines, we are committed to advancing sustainable energy solutions. As the industry advances toward lower greenhouse gas emissions, we’re dedicated to helping you meet your sustainability objectives. We have a variety of combined heat and power (CHP) products and services in place to support your efforts in reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
We will work with your team as the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) provides significant tax incentives and credits covering the development of new or upgraded energy facilities. The Energy Investment Tax Credit (ITC) is a newer incentive for installing CHP systems. We are ready to help you with this opportunity while we strive toward being more energy efficient.

SUSTAINABILITY REPORT
As demand for renewable energy has increased, Solar is an experienced sustainability partner, helping our customers build strategies around fuel flexibility, renewable fuels, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Sustainability is a focus area of Caterpillar’s enterprise strategy - and as a subsidiary of Caterpillar, Inc. we are proud to be a part of their longstanding commitment to helping customers build a better, more sustainable world.
For more than 90 years, customers have used Caterpillar's equipment to develop infrastructure, energy, and natural-resource assets that improve living standards in their communities. Over the past year, Caterpillar has shown that their dedication to building better is stronger than ever.
COMMITTED TO SUSTAINABLE ENERGY SOLUTIONS
Our long-standing commitment to energy innovation has helped drive reductions in greenhouse gas emissions—for us and for those we serve.
Here’s how Solar and Caterpillar are driving progress by reducing greenhouse gas emissions:
- Developing innovative low carbon solutions
- Producing low exhaust emissions that meet or exceed standards around the world
- Giving new life to existing products
- Transforming our safety performance
- Operating resource-efficient facilities through reduction in greenhouse gases and hazardous waste, recycling, and conservation
- Responding when natural disasters strike and building better communities
HYDROGEN POWER
In 1985, we introduced a Hydrogen-rich power generation package solutions that have, since then, contributed greatly to global hydrogen use, with units logging more than two million hours of operation with up to 70% Hydrogen gas (H2).
SYNTHETIC GAS TO ENERGY
Solar Turbines can help your business with renewable electricity by converting waste to energy. Synthetic gas, or Syngas, consists primarily of hydrogen and carbon monoxide. Syngas is usually the product of gasification of coal, biomass or Municipal Solid Waste (MSW).
SOLONOX™ TECHNOLOGY
Solar’s gas turbine engines are available with pollutionprevention SoLoNOx™ dry lean-premixed combustion technology. This advanced combustion system provides the most cost effective and sustainable approach to reduce NOx emissions. More than 3500 gas turbines with SoLoNOx technology have been installed worldwide, logging more than 350 million operating hours.
