WALTHAM, Mass., June 2, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Tecogen®
Inc. (NASDAQ: TGEN) is pleased to announce the sale of a second
Tecochill® CH-400 chiller to Stanley Black & Decker for use in their
manufacturing plant in Reynosa,
Tamaulipas, Mexico. Providing natural gas powered space
conditioning and process cooling to the approximately 4000 employee
manufacturing facility, the Tecochill chillers offset electric
demand from the facility, saving the plant owner money while
freeing electrical capacity. This freed capacity may be repurposed
for direct use in powering the plant's core manufacturing processes
and equipment.
Speaking about the repeat order, Arturo Cantu, General
Manager of Tecogen's local representative, Calfrost
de Mexico noted, "This follow on order came after
strong performance from the first unit installed last year and is a
testament to the appropriateness of the technology for this sort of
customer."
Benjamin Locke, Tecogen co-Chief
Executive Officer added, "Natural gas powered cooling makes a lot
of sense for manufacturing facilities in Mexico looking for affordable and reliable
alternatives to aging electric chillers that are often costly to
operate and vulnerable to an unreliable electric grid. The
additional chiller order builds on sales momentum we have seen in
Mexico and supports our continued
expansion in the territory. This perfectly aligns with our strategy
of expanding geographically by first introducing our chillers and
Ilios heat pumps and then following with combined heat and power
equipment after the new territory's installed base has reached
critical mass to support a dedicated service team."
The initial order was announced in January 2015 and detailed in a prior press
release.
