WALTHAM, Mass., April 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- TecogenĀ® Inc.
(NASDAQ: TGEN) today announced the sale of a CM-60 combined heat
and power (CHP) system to a newly constructed 135 unit, 11 floor
luxury apartment building in Northern New
Jersey. The Tecogen CHP unit will deliver electricity and
domestic hot water and provide significant energy savings through
Tecogen's patented low emissions system, Ultra, nearly eliminating
the production of criteria pollutants and compounds contributing to
smog.
Tecogen's Ultra emissions technology is a certified "Clean
Technology" by the State of NJ.
This certification states that Tecogen cogeneration systems have
been identified as a non-significant source of emissions according
to New Jersey emissions
regulations. As such, the New Jersey Department of Environmental
Protection has determined that Tecogen cogeneration systems do not
need air pollution preconstruction permits or operating
certificates.
"Our systems offer significant cost-savings and a quicker
construction start for developers in New
Jersey," said Robert Panora,
President and COO of Tecogen. "In addition, Tecogen provides
a cost-effective, environmentally-friendly solution that increases
a building's desirability with today's consumers."
The developer of the residence is pursuing LEED Gold
Certification from the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC).
