Compressed air production consumes a significant portion of electricity generated world-wide. The fragility of power infrastructure in many developed countries, and the growing Chinese economy, has created very large markets for compressed air plants that run off Diesel and natural gas fuels. Australia's reliance on coal introduces the added greenhouse incentive of reduced electricity use. This project will demonstrate a novel air compressor concept that features a natural gas fuelled micro-gas turbine. This device is expected to have comparable thermal efficiency to other air compressors, but with very significantly reduced greenhouse and overall emissions, much quieter operation, lower cost and increased device compactness.

压缩空气生产消耗了全球发电量的很大一部分。许多发达国家电力基础设施的脆弱性，以及不断增长的中国经济，为使用柴油和天然气燃料的压缩空气工厂创造了非常大的市场。澳大利亚对煤炭的依赖增加了减少用电量的温室效应。
