Capstone Green Energy to Deliver Scalable 2MW Microturbine System for Government-Backed Power Station in Remote Oceania Community

Capstone Green Energy to Deliver Scalable 2MW Microturbine System for Government-Backed Power Station in Remote Oceania Community

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 27, 2025--
Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc. (the 'Company' or 'Capstone') (PINK: CGEH) and Capstone Green Energy, LLC., announced that its Australian distributor, Optimal Group, has been selected as the EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) contractor for a remote community power generation project in the Oceania region. The project will deploy two Capstone C1000S Signature Series microturbines in a scalable configuration to deliver an initial 2 megawatts (MW) of reliable, low-emission power to an isolated community. This system is designed for expansion, with the ability to scale up to 5MW of power.
Commissioning of the initial 2MW installation is targeted for November 2025. The power station will be located near a natural gas fuel conditioning plant for conversion into LPG that will serve the Asia Pacific region. The project will off-take a portion of the natural gas from this process for the Capstone microturbines. The power generated by this facility will be exported to the local grid, meeting the community's current energy demand of 2MW. As additional residents and businesses connect to the grid over the coming years, the station's capacity is expected to scale up to 5MW.
'Being able to serve the needs of remote, underserved communities is especially meaningful for us,' said Vince Canino, President and CEO of Capstone Green Energy. 'Our ability to operate on alternate fuels in such isolated locations reinforces Capstone's original design philosophy of providing compact and mobile power solutions – visionary thinking that was introduced by Capstone's founders, James Noe and Robin McKay, almost 40 years ago. Our long-standing company culture of daring greatly and iterating towards success is why Capstone's microturbines can provide a much lower carbon footprint on a sustainable basis compared to diesel generators, and we are able to do so while offering unmatched reliability and availability. Even in the most challenging environments, we are able to provide a very attractive total cost of electricity.'
Capstone's modular microturbine design allows the system to easily scale with growing demand, ideal for evolving community needs. With a single-shaft design as the only moving part, plus air bearings that eliminate the need for lubricating oils and coolants, Capstone microturbines require minimal maintenance. This not only creates some of the highest availability factors in the industry, but it also leads to significant cost savings—an essential benefit for any project in remote locations.
This project will also transition the region away from reliance on diesel for power generation. By utilizing refined natural gas instead of diesel, the project will reduce NOx, CO2, and VOC emissions. It will also eliminate particulate matter (PM2.5) emissions all together. Additional benefits that contributed to the selection of Capstone's technology include its quieter operation. Because our microturbines run on a cushion of air, noise is significantly less than that of reciprocating engines which run at substantially higher decibel levels.
'This is yet another project that showcases our commitment to transitioning businesses and communities away from the pollution and messiness of diesel generation. This power station will provide a reliable source of electricity to the local community and significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Energy security will also be enhanced via the use of locally produced gaseous fuel,' said Craig Dugan, CEO of Optimal Group. 'Optimal's territory includes some of the most remote and challenging locations globally. Leveraging Capstone's technological flexibility allows us to deliver intelligently clean solutions at a lower total cost of ownership, with high availability and reliability. These solutions, which are renewable fuel-ready, integrate seamlessly with other renewable energy systems as well. We not only can make an impact today, but we have also designed in the ability to be future proof.'

IndiGrid to Acquire Solar and Transmission Assets Worth INR 2,175 Crore

The acquisitions are expected to be funded through a mix of equity, internal accruals, and debt, with the net debt-to-AUM ratio projected to reach approximately 62 per cent following the transaction You're reading Entrepreneur India, an international franchise of Entrepreneur Media. India Grid Trust (IndiGrid), one of the country's largest publicly listed infrastructure investment trusts in the power sector, has signed definitive agreements to acquire two operational energy assets for a combined enterprise value of up to INR 2,175 crore, including adjustments. The announcement was made through a press release issued by the company. The acquisition includes a 300 MW solar power project and a high-capacity transmission system, both already in operation. The move is part of IndiGrid's ongoing strategy to expand its footprint in the renewable energy and transmission segments while strengthening its asset base across key regions. The solar asset, Renew Solar Aayan Private Limited (RSAPL), is situated in Barmer, Rajasthan, an area known for strong solar irradiation. Operational since March 2024, RSAPL is backed by a 25-year power purchase agreement with the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI), offering a fixed tariff of INR 2.37 per unit. The project is a wholly owned subsidiary of ReNew Solar Power Private Limited and sits in close proximity to another IndiGrid-owned project, RSUPL, enabling operational synergies and enhanced regional presence in renewables. The second acquisition, Koppal Narendra Transmission Limited (KNTL), is a build-own-operate-maintain (BOOM) inter-state transmission system project in Karnataka. Commissioned in October 2023, it consists of about 276 circuit kilometers of transmission lines and a transformation capacity of around 2,500 MVA. KNTL is jointly owned by ReNew Solar Power Private Limited (51 per cent) and KNI India (49 per cent), a joint venture between Norfund and KLP. Its strategic location supports long-term grid expansion in the rapidly growing southern region. Pending necessary regulatory and contractual approvals, IndiGrid will assume full ownership and management control of both assets. The acquisitions are expected to be funded through a mix of equity, internal accruals, and debt, with the net debt-to-AUM ratio projected to reach approximately 62 per cent following the transaction—still within comfortable limits for future investments. "India's power sector is at a pivotal juncture, with the need for robust transmission infrastructure and accelerated renewable integration becoming more critical than ever," said Harsh Shah, managing director of IndiGrid. "These acquisitions align with our long-term strategy to participate meaningfully in this transformation by owning and operating essential infrastructure that supports grid stability and energy access."

Warning over $3,480 debt facing millions of Aussies: ‘No choice'

Millions of Australians are turning to credit cards as high mortgage rates and the rising cost of living make it harder to keep up. Credit card debt has jumped to more than $18 billion, the highest level in nearly four years. More than one million Australians have maxed out their available credit and opened a second credit card, new Finder research found. The average balance per consumer is now standing at $3,480. Finder personal finance expert Sarah Megginson told Yahoo Finance living expenses have outstripped earnings and many Aussies were putting the balance on credit cards. RELATED Millennial reveals huge money reality facing nearly one million Aussies Major Coles move to take on Chemist Warehouse, Bunnings, Amazon Centrelink payment change happening next week: 'Will increase' 'With limited savings to absorb those higher costs, many Australians have had no choice but to take on more credit card debt to manage rising costs,' she said. Finder's survey of 1,005 respondents found one in four Australians had switched credit cards or added a new credit card over the past year. One in 10 Aussies did it in pursuit of rewards points, while the same proportion were seeking a lower interest rate. Around 6 per cent had applied for a balance transfer, while 4 per cent were looking for lower transaction fees. Australia's credit card debt rose to $18.13 billion in March, Reserve Bank of Australia data found, with spending hitting new record highs. The total value of credit card transactions rose by $382 million or 1 per cent in the month, and $1.2 billion or 4 per cent compared to the same time a year ago. RBA data shows the average credit card rate over the last 12 months was 18.49 per cent, out of the cards charging interest. That means Australians have paid out nearly $3.3 billion in credit card interest charges in the past year. Findex financial advisor Jess Bell said credit cards can get a 'bad rap' because people don't understand the rules around them. 'I like to use it for my own cashflow in the way that any direct debits are done on credit cards, so I don't have to think about it,' she told Yahoo Finance. "At the end of each month or each statement that's due, we pay it off in full. I forecast all my bills for the year with an added 5, 10 per cent buffer for all my expenses.' She said it was important to have a strategy in place so you can repay your bill each month and avoid paying interest. 'That's where it can be a really good strategy is you don't just spend it on the credit card and not keep putting money away for when the credit card [bill] comes due. That's where people get stuck,' she said. While credit cards can be a common part of some Aussies' day-to-day money habits, others can find themselves in a 'downward debt spiral' due to some bad mistakes. Finder previously found 13 per cent of Aussies had fallen behind on repayments, with 8 per cent 30 days late, 4 per cent 60 days late, and 2 per cent more than 60 days behind. Missed payments will usually incur a late fee and interest charges, which can add up quickly, plus it can have a negative impact on your credit score. Megginson said it was important for Aussies to review their budgets. 'It's crucial for Australians to review their spending, create a realistic budget, and explore lower-cost credit options,' she said. 'A few smart moves now — like consolidating debt or setting repayment goals — can make a big difference in getting back in control.'

Please refer to the Prospectus for details including product features and the risk factors. Investment involves risks. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. There is no guarantee of the repayment of the principal. Investors should note: Global X MSCI Asia Pacific ex Japan ETF (the "Fund")'s investment objective is to provide investment results that, before fees and expenses, closely correspond to the performance of the MSCI AC Asia Pacific ex Japan Index (the "Index"). The Fund is subject to concentration risk as a result of tracking the performance of a single geographical region or country (Asia Pacific region excluding Japan). The Fund may likely be more volatile than a broad-based fund, such as a global equity fund, as it is more susceptible to fluctuations in value of the Index resulting from adverse conditions in the Asia Pacific region excluding Japan. The Fund invests in certain countries or regions in Asia Pacific region (excluding Japan) which may be considered as emerging markets. This may involve increased risks and special considerations not typically associated with investment in more developed markets, such as liquidity risks, currency risks/control, political and economic uncertainties, legal and taxation risks, settlement risks, custody risk and the likelihood of a high degree of volatility. Listed companies on the ChiNext market and/or STAR Board are usually of emerging nature with smaller operating scale. In particular, listed companies on ChiNext market and/or STAR Board are subject to higher fluctuation in stock prices and liquidity risks, Over-valuation risk, Differences in regulation, Delisting risk, and Concentration risk. The Fund may invest in mid-capitalisation companies, which may have lower liquidity and their prices are more volatile to adverse economic developments than those of larger capitalisation companies in general. The Fund may as a result suffer from a loss or delay when recovering the securities lent out. This may restrict the Fund's ability in meeting delivery or payment obligations from redemption requests. As part of the securities lending transactions, there is a risk of shortfall of collateral value due to inaccurate pricing of the securities lent or change of value of securities lent. This may cause significant losses to the Fund. There are risks and uncertainties associated with the current Mainland China tax laws, regulations and practice in respect of capital gains realized via Stock Connect on the Fund's investments in Mainland China (which may have retrospective effect). Any increased tax liabilities on the Fund may adversely affect the Fund's value. The trading price of the Shares on the SEHK is driven by market factors such as the demand and supply of the Shares. Therefore, the Shares may trade at a substantial premium or discount to the Fund's Net Asset Value. Payments of distributions out of capital or effectively out of capital amounts to a return or withdrawal of part of an investor's original investment or from any capital gains attributable to that original investment. Any such distributions may result in an immediate reduction in the Net Asset Value per Share of the Fund and will reduce the capital available for future investment.
