Catalytica Energy Systems Inc., a public company based in Mountain View, will be setting up shop in Fiesta Tech Centre, a business park at the southeast corner of Baseline Road and Arizona Avenue. Phoenix-based Hewson Development Corp. is constructing build-to-suit for the high-tech firm on a parcel at 1388 N. Tech Blvd.. The building will be ready to occupy in October.

Steven Schwarz, Hewson's senior vice president, says the attraction for Catalytica is Fiesta Tech Centre's "location, mature park-like landscaping and the corporate appearance of the building design." The business park is less than a mile south of Superstition Freeway and near the Chandler Tech Corridor, which has a number of high-tech manufacturing firms such as Motorola and Intel.

Catalytica is a leader in the discovery, development and manufacturing of advanced products for more effective energy production. Its first product, Xonon Cool Combustion, is a breakthrough combustion technology that achieves ultra-low emission levels for gas turbine power production. It also is working on fuel processing for fuel cells and adaptation of Xonon technology to micro-turbines, hybrid gas turbine fuel cells and diesel applications.
