Thermal Energy International Inc. has received orders totalling approximately $2.5 million from a leading snack manufacturer to implement a water recovery, thermal energy efficiency improvement and carbon emission reduction project across multiple sites. All figures are shown in CAD. This order covers the engineering, supply and installation of GEMTM steam traps at 16 sites representing Thermal Energy's largest GEM TM project to date.

Sold as Custom Equipment, GEMTM steam traps are often installed by the customer's on-site maintenance team prior to commissioning by Thermal Energy, however for this customer Thermal Energy will oversee the full scope of installation work. The retrofit of GEMTM Traps is a cost-effective energy efficiency measure that will reduce water and energy consumption, as well as maintenance costs and greenhouse gas emissions. This project will deliver combined annual utility and water savings of over $650,000 annual CO2e reduction of 5,255 tonnes and save more than 10 million gallons of water per year.

Prior to this project, Thermal Energy had implemented GEMTM steam traps at some of the customer's other facilities and completed a $1.5 million heat recovery project at one site in 2019 that represented the application of new technology to a new heat source with this customer as part of a company-wide commitment to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
