IPT has authored over 48 U.S. and international <a href="technology/patents.htm" target="_self">patents</a> and has accumulated over 1,250,000 hours of power plant operations experience. </p> <p>The first Cheng Cycle power plant, located at San Jose State University, was developed, owned, and operated by IPT at the time of its construction in 1984. The <a href="applications/sjsu_plant.htm" target="_self">San Jose Cogeneration Project</a> is currently operational and is approaching 250,000 hours of continuous operations. The <a href="engine_specs/spec935a.htm" target="_self">Cheng Cycle Spec 935</a> was subsequently developed by Allison after the San Jose project was built.</p> <p>Between 1985 and 1990, IPT developed five <a href="applications/index.htm" target="_self">additional Cheng Cycle plants</a>. During this period of project development, IPT refined and perfected its <a href="archives/ccd_sum_CC_tech_and_knowhow.pdf" target="_self">know-how</a> by way of constant feedback from the plants it was operating, as well as the joint development efforts between IPT and Allison Gas Turbines. Design improvements included case steam injection, nozzle steam injection, boiler cold end design, lubrication system, and steam purity, among others. Between 1991 and 1994, IPT performed service evaluations and testing in conjunction with Allison Gas Turbines at IPT's SRI power plant location, resulting in significant improvements to the Allison product line, including 1st stage turbine TBC vanes, LE3.x combustion liners, turbine 1st stage blade materials and coatings, turbine lab seals, and <a href="nozzle_steam/overview.htm" target="_self">nozzle and case steam injection</a>. </p> <p>During the 1990's, IPT's focus was targeted towards <a href="technology/CC%20Series%207%20Part%201.pdf" target="_self">Cheng Cycle product</a> licensing, engineering, and operations and maintenance of power plants. IPT's licensees during this period were US Turbine in North America, DETCO in Australia, Voest-Alpine (ELIN) in Europe, and Hitachi Zosen and KHI in Japan. IPT's licensees around the world continued developing Cheng Cycle power plants throughout the 90's, and today there are over <a href="technology/installations.htm" target="_self">130 Cheng Cycle installations worldwide</a>. </p> <p>Between 1995 and 2000, IPT was the exclusive authorized distributor for Jenbacher biogas fueled engines in California. Jenbacher biogas fueled engines have a leading market share in Europe due to superior emissions, efficiency, and durability. Over the last few years Jenbacher biogas fueled engines have been introduced into North America where they rapidly are establishing new standards for "state-of-the-art" biogas enginators.</p> <p>Between 1996 and 1999, IPT contracted with the <a href="landfill-gas-facility.pdf" target="_self">Monterey Regional Waste Management District (MRWMD)</a> to install two Jenbacher 320, 900 kW, landfill gas engines at their power facility in Marina, California. IPT provided engineering, construction, permitting, financial analyses, maintenance, and field service support to MWRMD between 1994 and 1999.</p> <p><a href="contact_us/index.htm" target="_self">Headquartered in San Jose, California</a>, IPT's primary business today is operations and maintenance of power plants, engineering, field service, project development, and 501-K engine sales and leasing.</p> <p><b>International Power Technology's services include:</b></p> </font><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <tr><td valign="baseline" width="42"><img
