OTTAWA, ONTARIO - September 10th, 2013 - Thermal Energy International Inc. (TSXV: TMG) ("Thermal Energy" or the "Company"), a leading provider of custom energy efficiency and emission reduction technologies to energy intensive industries and institutions worldwide, today announced that it has received both a heat recovery system order and a GEM(R) steam trap system order from a major publicly owned hospital. The two orders total, in aggregate, approximately $780,000. Both the heat recovery and GEM(R) steam trap systems are expected to be installed and revenue earned over the next six months.
"These two orders are the second time in the last 3 months where we have been successful selling both a heat recovery system and a GEM(R) steam trap system to the same facility at the same time" commented William Crossland, President and CEO of Thermal Energy. "Focusing on corporate accounts and cross-selling opportunities such as this is a key part of our strategy to leverage sales growth and these recent orders are evidence this strategy is beginning to pay off."
The heat recovery and GEM(R) steam trap systems to be installed at the hospital are calculated by Thermal Energy to reduce the hospital's annual fuel consumption by 31% and reduce the hospital's total carbon emissions by approximately 8%. The projects will also provide a payback of approximately 2.4 years, with an expected life of 20 years.
With this order Thermal Energy's order backlog currently stands at approximately $8.7 million of which approximately $0.5 million is related to long term contracts and is not expected to be reflected in revenue within the next 12 months. Thermal Energy includes in "order backlog" all purchase orders received for product or services that have not yet been reflected as revenue in the Company's published quarterly financial statements.
