Distributors, energy centers, engineering firms, end users and investors are invited to learn about Tecogen opportunities, technology and meet with the staff and leadership of the company.

The systems onboard are equipped with Tecogen's innovative patented Ultra-emissions system which virtually eliminates criteria pollutants (contributors to smog).

The trailer comes with full exhibition capabilities including a slide-out section expanding the meeting space to accommodate large crowds for presentations on integrated LED monitors running automated and customizable presentations.

"Tecogen systems are a commercially available clean energy solution that directly addresses national priorities including increasing energy efficiency, reducing emissions, and improving energy security," said Robert Panora, President and COO of Tecogen. "Tecogen technology is founded on practical, economical and innovative solutions that meet the needs of a broad base of consumers.
