microturbine
Small spinning powerplant
A microturbine is a small gas turbine engine, typically producing less than 500 kilowatts of power.
These compact units burn natural gas or other fuels to generate electricity or mechanical power, often used for distributed power generation, backup systems, or combined heat and power applications: The building uses a microturbine for on-site electricity.
