The i2

The conventional home heating systems ( furnace/water heater/boiler) is long overdue for a breakthrough that can keep up with changing energy needs. In response, iGEN Technologies has developed the i2. This self-powered heating appliance delivers performance, security and savings through its patented technology by generating, storing and using its own electricity. The i2, which replaces a traditional furnace, will disrupt the stagnated home comfort industry through enhanced resiliency, higher efficiency, sustainability and an innovative business model.

The main i2 differentiator is simultaneous heat and power generation from the combustion of natural gas or propane. Up to 1000W of power can be generated to run the unit itself, with surplus power used within the home or stored in a battery. This makes the i2 blackout-proof, able to operate even during an electricity grid outage. As extreme weather conditions and electricity rates continue to increase throughout North America, the i2 becomes an attractive proposition to homes, cottage owners or small business entities seeking operational security and energy freedom.
