Based in Carson City, Nevada, Langson Energy, Inc. operates within the alternative energy equipment sector, focusing on power conversion systems that generate green power. Founded in 2010 by Richard K. Langson, the company develops technology to transform wasted or renewable pressure into electricity with no carbon emissions. Mr. Langson, an inventor and entrepreneur with four decades of experience, has a background that includes professional drag racing, where he developed insights into compression and expansion technology, and extensive work in the construction industry. His previous ventures and inventions have earned numerous accolades, including the Wall Street Journal Technology Innovation Award and an Edison Award.
Langson Energy's core business revolves around its proprietary Total Flow Generators™, which are essentially turbo-expanders that convert pressure into power. The company's product line includes the "Gas Letdown Generator" (GLG) for various gases and the "Steam Machine" for different types of steam. These systems are engineered to capture energy that is typically lost in industrial processes, such as at gas pressure reduction stations where high-pressure gas is stepped down for use. A key benefit of the GLG is the significant cooling effect produced during gas expansion, offering a dual payback by generating power and providing refrigeration, which can be valuable for facilities like data centers. The Steam Machine is designed to handle wet, saturated, or contaminated steam that would damage traditional turbines, making it suitable for applications in ethanol plants, geothermal sites, and other industrial facilities.
The business model centers on providing custom-designed, modular generators tailored to the specific conditions and goals of each client's site. Prospective customers can submit a project evaluation form, after which Langson Energy provides an estimate of potential electricity generation and cost. The company emphasizes the lower capital and operating costs of its helical screw technology compared to conventional steam turbines. The systems are designed for reliability and low maintenance, capable of providing continuous, base-load power 24/7, which is an advantage over intermittent renewable sources like solar and wind.
