Broadwind, Inc. announced an $8 million order for its proprietary Mobile Pressure Reducing Systems (PRS) and related accessories, including both its legacy medium flow and newly introduced high flow PRS model. First launched in 2021, Broadwind's mobile natural gas decompression systems are a key component utilized in "virtual pipelines", an alternative method for supplying compressed natural gas to regions without established pipeline infrastructure. This technology plays a vital role in ensuring that natural gas can be used in large volumes as a lower emissions replacement for diesel fuel and coal in applications without access to a pipeline.
The new Broadwind High-Flow PRS doubles the flow capacity of a legacy medium flow unit, while maintaining an identified sized envelope, controls architecture, and operator interface. The Company continues to invest in IP that seeks to further expand the PRS product family, positioning Broadwind to support a broad range of product applications in the natural gas and hydrogen delivery space. The Company continues to anticipate that its clean fuels product offering has the potential to be 10% of total revenue by 2025.
