Curtis Engine & Equipment, Inc., "The Power Solutions Company," has 60 years of experience in supplying generator sets, automatic transfer switches, switchgear, specialty housings and mobile generator sets in the Mid-Atlantic region.

Curtis Engine has signed a license agreement with Worcester County, Maryland. Curtis will extract, process, and generate electrical energy from methane produced in the county landfill. Also included in the agreement is the construction of the power plant, installation of two Waukesha engine generators, and the operation and maintenance the facility. The project will provide electricity to the landfill and resell excess capacity to the regional grid. The two-megawatt, $3.5 million project will be operative by year-end 2007.
Curtis Engine, as a subcontractor to Johnson Controls, Inc., will provide three Waukesha engines to make electricity and steam at the Baltimore, Maryland project. The new energy facility is expected to save Baltimore City $1.4 million annually in energy cost and reduce the need for a 20-foot methane flare at the site. Curtis Engine will also operate and maintain the facility on behalf of Johnson Controls. The plant is expected to go online mid-year 2007.
