WALTHAM, Mass., Nov. 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Tecogen®
Inc. (NASDAQ: TGEN) today announced the sale of a CM-75 kW CHP unit
to Titan Energy for installation at Watertown High School,
Watertown CT. The combined heat
and power module will be fitted with Tecogen's ultra-low emission
system, bringing emission of harmful pollutants down to near-zero
levels, an important feature for equipment operating in a sensitive
school environment. The CM-75 will provide on-site power along with
heating for the facility.
As has been highlighted by Tecogen in the past (illustrated in a
Case Study about the Company's installation at Waverly Junior
Senior High School in Waverly, NY
- http://www.tecogen.com/resources-case-studies.htm - and an
article in the Winter 2015 edition of The Hotchkiss School's Hotchkiss Magazine -
http://www.tecogen.com/about-us-news-and-events-tecogen-in-the-news.htm),
CHP and other Tecogen technologies can provide an excellent
solution for school administrators wanting to gain control of
energy and heating costs. "Harvard
University was among the first CHP installations in Company
history and schools account for just under one fifth of our total
installed base today, a testament to the suitability of our systems
for such applications," said Tecogen President and COO Robert Panora. "With decades of experience
installing, operating and servicing equipment for educational
facilities, education officials can be confident that our systems
are solid long term investments."
The equipment sale includes a 10 year service agreement,
ensuring the installed equipment will be well maintained and
operating at peak performance for the school community. Speaking
about the project, Adam Teff, General Manager of Titangen (a
division of Titan Energy) commented, "Titan Energy, Tecogen and
Watertown look forward to bringing
the co-generation endeavor at Watertown High School to a positive,
successful conclusion. This project was made possible by Tecogen's
long track record of product innovation and reliable customer
service, and by Watertown's
willingness to allow Tecogen and Titan the opportunity to succeed
where others have failed. We look forward to a long, healthy,
productive relationship between all parties."
