WALTHAM, Mass., June 21, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tecogen Inc. (NASDAQ:TGEN), a clean energy company providing ultra-efficient, clean, natural gas powered on-site power, heating and cooling equipment, has obtained patent protection in Japan for its Ultera emissions technology. This patent gives Tecogen exclusive control over the Ultera technology in Japan and augments the Company’s Ultera patent portfolio. Tecogen also recently obtained an allowance of its patent application for the technology from the European Patent Office.
