Trading Update
Inspirit Energy is happy to announce progress on several fronts which represents significant advance for the business towards its goal of the commercialisation of its Kinematic Stirling Engine-based micro-combined heat and power (mCHP) technology.
The new appliance control and power electronics set for the 2kWe and 3kWe variants have been delivered and commissioned at our Sheffield laboratories by Sentec (our controls development partner). This will allow the delivery of our first production appliance to a major utility shortly. Additionally we will have a demonstration appliance installed in our Sheffield facility for demonstration purposes and further deliveries will continue thereafter to our selected customers.
Manufacturing contracts for production quantities for the control and power electronic set are currently being negotiated and it is anticipated these will become available starting in June 2015.
Non Disclosure Agreements have been signed and there are on-going discussions with several manufacturing partners and a major European utility to explore roll out across Europe and the USA.
We have agreed terms for the appointment of a Sales and Marketing director, who will spearhead our growth in to other territories. We are also in discussion with potential installation partners to provide UK wide coverage for the installation and support of the micro-CHP unit and Heat and Power server packages, which incorporate the micro-CHP unit.
John Gunn, Chief Executive Officer commented: " This news release indicates the substantial commercial and technical progress that Inspirit Energy has made over the last few months and substantiates the exciting prospect of moving to significant Sales, Production and Installations over the coming months"
