Laundromat Chooses Tecogen for Clean(ing) Power W

WALTHAM, MA --(Marketwired - August 30, 2017) - Tecogen ® Inc. ( NASDAQ : TGEN ), a clean energy company providing ultra-efficient, clean, natural gas powered on-site power, heating and cooling equipment, is pleased to announce the sale of two InVerde e+ units to a commercial wash facility in Mount Vernon, NY. The units are being installed in conjunction with the construction of the facility and will have the capacity to supply the business with all of its hot water and a majority of its electrical needs. Tecogen's exclusive microgrid technology will ensure consistent and optimal utilization of the equipment, keeping the business running even if the utility fails.

Regarding the project, Joe E Gehret, Director of Field Operations for Tecogen, commented, "The units are being installed as part of the construction of the facility. Once up and running, the facility should produce almost two thirds of its own energy."

Tecogen Co-CEO Benjamin Locke stated, "The ability to deliver both a consistent and reliable supply of high temperature hot water and electricity makes Tecogen's InVerde e+ an ideal fit for the laundry business. Not only do the resulting savings flow right to the bottom line, but InVerde's industry-leading efficiency and extremely low emissions, thanks to Ultera, address growing customer awareness of the impact that cleaning our clothes has on the environment."
