OTTAWA, Nov. 29, 2012 /CNW/ - Thermal Energy International Inc. (TSX-V: TMG) a leading provider of custom energy and emission reduction technologies for energy intensive industries and institutions worldwide, is pleased to announced that the previously announced Greenpower Purchase Agreement between Fortress Specialty Cellulose Inc. ("Fortress Specialty") and Thermal Energy's subsidiary Forevergreen Energy Inc. has been extended for two years until December 31, 2014. The original arm's length agreement, entered into in June 2010, was set to expire on December 31, 2012.
The Greenpower Purchase Agreement provides for the purchase, by Fortress Specialty, of energy recovered by Thermal Energy's FLU-ACE® Waste Heat Recovery System installed at the Fortress Specialty mill in Thurso, Quebec. The FLU-ACE® Waste Heat Recovery System commenced operations and began delivering recovered energy to Fortress Specialty in June 2010.
