We look forward to Zestiq and their utility partners installing these BlueGen generators with early customers and then driving further BlueGen sales in The Netherlands market."Zestiq has been a BlueGen distributor for Ceramic Fuel Cells since July 2011. The shares rose 0.375p to 8.125p on the morning of the announcement.
