Thermal Energy International Helps Prominent Beer Company Brew Up More Emissions Reduction



OTTAWA, ONTARIO – TheNewswire -February 24, 2021 – Thermal Energy International Inc. (“Thermal Energy” or the “Company”) (TSXV:TMG) an innovative cleantech company and global provider of energy efficiency and emissions reduction solutions, has been commissioned by a prominent multinational brewer to supply a turn-key heat recovery system to one of its North American sites.

The system, valued at over $1,000,000, will feature two of Thermal Energy’s proprietary heat recovery technologies, working in tandem to reduce fuel use and minimize carbon emissions. While it will be the first time these technologies have been applied to the sector in this way, the order represents an established market for Thermal Energy, with the Company now working with three of the top five brewers worldwide.

Both the FLU-ACE® condensing heat recovery unit and HeatSponge indirect heat recovery unit will recover waste heat exhausted from the site’s boilers. The energy will then be repurposed to heat the water required for three separate applications; reverse osmosis which removes contaminants, deaeration which protects the steam system from the effects of corrosive gases, and boiler makeup water.

By reducing the steam load, the project is expected to increase energy efficiency, reduce fuel use, and save an estimated 8 million litres of water annually, as well as reduce CO2 emissions by over 1,800 metric tonnes per year, which is equivalent to removing more than 380 cars from the road. The project provides a payback for the customer of just under 4 years.

“We have worked with a number of different breweries and beverage producers over the years, with our technology proving particularly applicable to the industry,” said William Crossland, CEO of Thermal Energy.

“Together with our engineering experience with the specific needs of the sector, this has meant that over the last few years we have secured energy efficiency projects for three of the world’s top five brewers. This latest order follows a highly successful GEM™ Steam Trap project at a partner site located in Europe.

“With this producer having over 50 sites across 10 countries, it is an excellent example of how we, as a company, can leverage our existing base of multinational and household name customers to promote growth in line with our strategic plan.

“This project also comes at a time when we must adapt to continue supporting our customers as COVID-19 safety protocols become part of everyday life. As a result, this will be the first system to be deployed without an on-site presence during installation. Our ability to work in collaboration with the client to achieve this marks an exciting new approach to projects and one we are likely to see more often.

“COVID-19 is also prompting a growing number of companies to re-focus on climate initiatives as part of a global green recovery response to the economic impact of the pandemic. With energy efficiency needed to deliver the majority of CO2 emissions reduction required to meet global targets, Thermal Energy is well positioned to support companies looking to ramp up their emissions reduction through energy efficiency and as we all look to ‘build back better’.”

The turn-key project includes engineering, equipment, installation, commissioning, and training. The project is expected to be completed and revenue earned within nine months.
