2G Energy AG and the Power Systems division of the Rolls-Royce technology group based in Friedrichshafen, Germany, have signed a cooperation agreement on November 8, 2019, for the mutual purchase of gas generators for combined heat and power plants (CHPs). Rolls-Royce will be supplied by 2G Energy gas generators and CHP modules in the 250 to 550 kW power range, both including and excluding heat extraction. Equipped with its own controls and other specific components, Rolls-Royce will market them under its MTU product and solution brand.

In return, 2G will purchase MTU Series 4000 gas generators from Rolls-Royce with an electrical output range of 776 to 2,535 kW for its CHPs for the decentralized generation of electricity and heat. A reciprocal service agreement is associated with the procurement partnership, whereby the service organizations receive the rights to the comprehensive servicing of the respective other manufacturer's products. This ensures optimum service for all engines integrated into the systems of both cooperation partners.
