About Gigawatt Company

The Gigawatt Company has expanded its engineering services since 2011 with a Ph.D. MBA Mechanical Engineer Mario Sagastume Mena who is one of the founders, worked hand in hand with non-traditional geothermal power generation projects from Powertube, a company led by Doyle Brewington that built a technology capable of producing energy from the heat of the earth, this technology based on an Organic Rankine Cycle, that's how we gain the company great experience, knowledge and inspiration to consolidate the company's creation in 2023. Our goal has always been to lead the Guatemalan community toward a technologically advanced future, with baseload quality of energy for each project, and social benefits for surrounding communities, as well as environmental care, we work carefully to stay within needs while offering maximum value to the end consumer of energy and to our customers who are electric power distributors. One of our main goals is to decrease prices for the end consumer. Our human talent at the company has accumulated over 30 years of experience working in Hydroelectric Power Plants, Biomass Plants, Mining Industries, Cement Industries, Solar Plants, and other industries, we know the electric market in the region very well, and we are very deep into it.  Baseload Power generation in electricity  is our main goal, with molten salt high technology we are able to conquest the market.

SUPER CRITICAL TEMPERATURES MOLTEN SALT TO ENERGY

Molten Salts have a history of reliable performance in the energy industry since the 1950s.  Elements used in molten salts for thermal applications include but are not limited to: sodium, calcium, potassium, fluoride,  lithium, sodium, zinc,  magnesium, and boron. 

The most widely used varieties are nitrate-based mixtures. Depending on the specific use, the blends are formulated for optimal  specific heat capacity, thermal conductivity, melting point, and density.  AGP's patents are inclusive of all varieties of molten salts.

-Molten salt is an excellent Heat Transfer Fluid (HTF).

-It is environmentally benign, non-toxic, and non-flammable.

-It lasts over 30 years with little degradation.

- It is 2-4 times as thermally conductive as water.

-It has a low vapor pressure.

-It has a high specific heat capacity, and only loses 1% of its heat per day in a properly insulated tank.

-It is very stable above 400°C and, depending on the species of molten salt, has working temperatures from 65°C – 1000°C.

 

In case you're wondering, even common table salt (NaCl), when heated enough, becomes a molten salt.  However, its very high melting point of around  800ºC precludes it from being an option for geothermal processes where temperatures of  less than 400ºC are much more practical.

Siemens Energy

With over 150 years of experience and located in 90 countries, we have a global team of 99,000 people who share a common passion: finding answers to the energy challenges of today and tomorrow. The diversity of this team, together with the collaboration with strategic partners, has allowed us to address the complexity of today's energy landscape, ranging from conventional to renewable energy, grid technology, storage and the electrification of industrial processes.

Our mission is to support companies and countries with what they need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and make energy reliable, affordable and sustainable. We energize society.

OASIS GEOPOWER

MOLTEN SALT, OASIS GEOPOWER IN OMAN

American GeoPower (AGP) develops innovative and practical solutions to effectively transform how geothermal energy is accessed, harvested, stored, and distributed. A key component of our geothermal energy technology is using molten salts in a closed-loop system that can extract thermal energy from hot briny fluids and ultra-high temperature sources such as hot rock, and even magma.

 

These are the sources that will unlock the true potential of geothermal power. We believe that our granted patent systems represent the best means of capitalizing on ultra-high temperature geothermal energy available today. Our technologies also offer an effective means to enhance conventional geothermal systems.
