Energetix wins boiler order from E.ON

LIVERPOOL-based Energetix Group has announced that it has received an order from E.ON for a batch of the Kingston microCHP boilers produced by its Genlec subsidiary.

E.ON has ordered an initial batch of small boilers which will be tested at facilities in Germany and in the UK.

These appliances are currently being produced on a six station pilot batch assembly line developed by the company in conjunction with a major manufacturer of white goods and boilers.
 
Adrian Hutchings, CEO of Energetix, said:  “We are delighted to have received the order for these appliances from E.ON, which helps to support our view of the major potential for the product.

“It’s pleasing that the first units will be tested in Germany and the UK, particularly as the UK is the largest boiler market in the world with well over a million boilers being sold in the UK every year.

“We entered into an MoU with E.ON in January 2008 and this order is another step in the process of E.ON becoming a route to market for the Kingston product. I am hopeful that this will be followed by orders from customers of a similarly high calibre.”

Andrew Thomas, microCHP portfolio manager at E.ON, said that the integrated microCHP boilers were a good way to allow customers to generate electricity while heating their homes.

“Our agreement with Energetix serves to further underline our commitment to supporting the commercialisation of new low carbon technologies, which are good for the environment and good for our customers.”
