BlueGen. Next generation electricity.

The worlds most efficient, small-scale generator


About the size of a washing machine and powered by sophisticated fuel cell technology, BlueGen can be installed on-site in your home or business. It connects directly to the natural gas supply, converting gas into clean, low carbon electricity, 24 hours a day. Its virtually silent and has low emissions which means signicantly reduced greenhouse gases and a small carbon footprint. BlueGen also has the highest electrical efciency (60 per cent), producing more electricity and using less fuel. When the thermal energy from BlueGen is recovered, total efciency increases a further 25 per cent to around 85 per cent.

Join the revolution. BlueGen units have already been installed in a variety of businesses and residential properties throughout Europe, including Germany, The Netherlands and United Kingdom. In Australia, government, councils and green technology leaders are following rapidly in their footsteps.

How does it compare with other generators? Typically, BlueGen produces over 13,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity on-site per year. Thats two or three times more than the average home needs, with any excess electricity exported to the grid. BlueGens optional heat recovery system also generates domestic hot water, producing up to 200 litres of free hot water per day ideal for commercial operations or kitchens and bathrooms. BlueGens high electrical efciency means its cleaner, with carbon emissions substantially reduced compared to grid power alone. BlueGen even has lower carbon emissions than combined grid and solar Photovoltaic (PV) power. Energy generation 24/7, whatever the weather. BlueGen generates electricity all year round, rain, hail or shine, providing a constant, stable source of clean electricity when compared to renewable energy. Combined with solar panels, BlueGens electricity output can be increased or decreased to suit specic needs. For example, its output can be increased during the evening when solar panels arent producing electricity and decreased during the day when they are. Next generation technology, available now. The popularity of fuel cell technology is growing rapidly and BlueGen is at the forefront. Fuel cells represent a clean energy future, where energy efciency is paramount and producing your own electricity is standard. BlueGen allows end users to achieve this, using technology developed through world leading research and practices.

Clean, controllable on-site power...

BlueGen fast facts

Signicantly reduces carbon emissions Unconstrained by seasons or weather, unlike renewable energy sources Integrates with renewable technologies such as solar Photovoltaic panels or solar thermal Located on-site, either inside or outside house/ofce Simple installation within a day using standard connections Unit is monitored online for any faults Hands-free ownership all maintenance performed automatically by service personnel

60% ELECTRICAL EFFICIENCY CLEAN, EFFICIENT POWER 24/7

FREE HOT WATER UP TO 200 LITRES PER DAY

VIRTUALLY SILENT NO NOISE OR VIBRATIONS

WIDE OPERATING RANGE POWER CAN BE TURNED UP OR TURNED DOWN

When electricity is generated centrally by traditional coal-red power stations, around 60% to 70% of energy is lost as heat. With BlueGen, up to 85% of the original fuel energy is used in the home.
