Enters Waste Heat to Power Market via BITZER US Subsidiary<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Reno (Nevada), January 30, 2017. BITZER, the world\u2019s largest independent manufacturer of refrigeration compressors, announces the acquisition of ElectraTherm, a leader in distributed, waste heat to power generation. <\/em><\/p>\n

ElectraTherm\u2019s Power+ Generator\u2122 utilizes waste heat on applications such as internal combustion engines, biomass boilers, flare gas (at oil and gas wells, wastewater treatment plants and landfills), geothermal\/co-produced fluids, and more. ElectraTherm\u2019s Power+ fleet exceeds 50 machines in operation in 12 countries and has surpassed 75 years of runtime.<\/p>\n

ElectraTherm\u2019s Power+ Generator uses Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) technology to capture waste heat and convert it to clean electricity. Hot water is the only fuel consumed by the Power+. The waste heat is used to produce a high pressure vapor that expands through ElectraTherm\u2019s twin screw power block, spinning an electric generator to produce fuel-free, emission-free power to be consumed on site or exported to the grid. After turning the expander, the vapor is condensed back into liquid through a liquid loop radiator. The Power+ produces power from an unutilized resource, increases site efficiency and can also reduce site cooling loads.<\/p>\n

\u201cDeveloping energy-efficient solutions is one of our main goals \u2013 and the waste heat to power market offers tremendous potential\u201d, says Peter Narreau, President of BITZER North America. \u201cElectraTherm\u2019s ORC technology enables us to make better use of the abundant, and untapped resource of waste heat. This builds on BITZER\u2019s commitment of responsible climate protection. There are clear synergies in our markets and technologies, and we are eager to combine our efforts to further grow our respective markets.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWith BITZER\u2019s expertise in refrigeration and compressor technology, ElectraTherm is a natural fit,\u201d says John Fox, ElectraTherm\u2019s Managing Director. \u201cWe see a powerful opportunity to grow our position as the leader in waste heat to power with our best-in-class product and team by leveraging BITZER\u2019s excellent reputation and global presence.\u201d<\/p>\n
