Tecogen Receives Tecochill Order for Arizona Cultivation Facility

Waltham, MA - (NewMediaWire) - July 12, 2022 - Tecogen Inc. (OTCQX: TGEN), a clean energy company providing ultra-efficient and clean on-site power, heating, and cooling equipment, is pleased to announce the sale of a 400-ton Tecochill chiller to an indoor cultivation facility being built in Arizona. The chiller will provide cooling for the facility using inexpensive natural gas, with the free waste heat utilized for dehumidification. A maintenance contract is expected to be executed once the units are installed later this year and will be serviced out of Tecogen's West Coast factory service center.

Many gas companies provide discounted gas to customers that meet certain standards for operation.  In this case, Southwest Gas is providing a 25% discount on gas delivery for use in the Tecochill system, further reducing the cost of operating the Tecochill system.    

“Indoor cultivation facilities continue to be a strong market for our chillers,” noted Benjamin Locke, Tecogen’s CEO.  “As the rapid growth of these facilities continues, the importance of operational cost savings becomes more important.  The Tecochill solution provides significant cost savings compared to traditional methods of facility cooling and dehumidification.  We anticipate continued sales for indoor cultivation throughout 2022.”
