WALTHAM, Mass., May
26, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Tecogen® Inc.
(NASDAQ: TGEN) announced today it is joining Bates Troy, Inc. and
state, county and local leaders at the May
27, 2015 unveiling of their new Tecogen Combined Heat and
Power (CHP) System.
The Tecogen system will generate over 90% of the power required
for the Binghamton, NY property.
It is providing electricity, heat, domestic and operational hot
water for the washing facility. It will lower operational energy
costs and significantly reduce the production of criteria
pollutants, the compounds contributing to smog. The system also
provides emergency back-up power to this state-designated critical
facility.
Bates Troy provides clean linen to over 3,000 patient beds per
day. As a provider of an essential health care service, the company
is required to be prepared for emergencies such as loss of power.
The Tecogen system will take over when utility power is lost and
keep the facility operational during outages like those experienced
in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy or, more applicable to the
Bates Troy operation, the Susquehanna River Floods of 2005, 2006
and 2011.
"Participating in this unveiling and open house event provides
Tecogen an opportunity to show our technology to other guests
interested in this cost-effective, environmentally friendly
technology for their facilities," said Robert Panora, President and COO of
Tecogen. "We are proud to be a part of the on-going
environmental efforts being taken by Bates Troy."
