What EC Power does

EC Power A/S is a Danish privately held manufacturer of micro-combined heat and power (micro-CHP) systems, founded in 1996 and headquartered in Hinnerup, Denmark. The company designs and sells the XRGI® product line — gas-engine CHP units spanning 6 kWel to 80 kWel (in cascade) that generate electricity and usable heat simultaneously on-site, achieving up to 106% total efficiency and an A+++ EU energy efficiency rating. Specialized variants include XRGI® BIOGENIC for biogenic-gas operation, Black Start battery storage for outage resilience, and Power House / Energy Center packaged solutions for outdoor and district-scale deployments. EC Power serves residential, commercial, industrial, and public-institution customers (hotels, fitness studios, childcare centers, care homes, manufacturing, and district energy systems) through a certified partner network plus wholly-owned subsidiaries in Germany (EC POWER GmbH, Großbeeren) and the United States (EC POWER Inc., Rhode Island).

The business generates revenue through three streams: hardware sales of XRGI® units and integrated energy solutions, professional services delivered via the 360° all-around service (planning, installation, commissioning, maintenance, and subsidy advisory), and a recurring remote-monitoring subscription (My XRGI® / Energy Check Plus) that delivers monthly savings reports to operators. The company markets through trade fairs (HVAC EXPO Warsaw 2026, MCE Milan 2026), multilingual digital content, the EC POWER Academy training platform, and a Premium Partner program that routes leads to regional specialists. Management includes Managing Director Bjarne Bogner; Erik Rosenbom is the named data controller. EC Power holds 25 patents and has received 15 industry awards, with over 20,000 units installed globally and a claimed 60 million kg/year of CO2 savings from the installed base. The addressable global micro-CHP market is projected at USD 3.69B in 2026 growing to USD 5.77B by 2031 (9.3% CAGR), with Asia-Pacific representing the largest geographic share and residential applications growing fastest at 10.6% CAGR.

Broad incumbents

• Caterpillar (Cat® Electric Power): Caterpillar's Electric Power division supplies gas generator sets and CHP solutions for commercial, industrial, and institutional power applications worldwide. As a broad incumbent in reciprocating engine power generation, Caterpillar overlaps with EC Power's gas-engine CHP technology stack.
• Vaillant Group: Vaillant is a European heating technology group offering boilers, heat pumps, and CHP/fuel cell solutions under brands such as Vaillant, Saunier Duval, and Baxi. The company's micro-CHP and fuel-cell offerings overlap with EC Power's residential and commercial building focus.
• Bosch Thermotechnology: Bosch Thermotechnology is a division of Bosch offering heating, hot water, and CHP solutions across global markets. With a much wider product portfolio and distribution scale than EC Power, it competes for the same building heating-and-power customer budgets across Europe.
• INNIO (Jenbacher / Waukesha): INNIO (formerly GE's Jenbacher gas engine business) is a global leader in gas-fired reciprocating engines and CHP solutions for utility, industrial, and commercial applications. While larger-scale than EC Power's micro-CHP focus, INNIO competes in the broader cogeneration equipment market with overlapping gas-engine technology.
• Viessmann Climate Solutions: Viessmann is a leading German heating technology manufacturer offering a broad portfolio including boilers, heat pumps, and CHP/fuel cell systems. As a broad incumbent in building energy, Viessmann competes with EC Power's CHP offering while also fielding competing heat-pump technologies.

Regional players

• ENER-G Combined Power: ENER-G (now part of Central Power and Light / CPL) is a UK-headquartered CHP and energy services provider specializing in on-site CHP installations. They compete in the European micro and small commercial CHP segment with a regional services-led model similar to EC Power's partner-driven approach.

Direct peers

• Yanmar Energy System: Yanmar produces gas engine CHP and micro cogeneration units widely deployed in Japan and other Asian markets for residential and commercial use. Yanmar is one of the dominant incumbents in the Asian micro-CHP segment where EC Power is geographically underdeveloped.
• 2G Energy AG: 2G Energy is a German manufacturer of CHP systems using gas engines from 20 kW up to multi-MW ranges. They serve commercial and industrial customers with similar cogeneration technology, overlapping with EC Power's XRGI cascade configurations and competing for mid-market building and district projects.
• SenerTec (SenerTec Kraft-Wärme-Energiesysteme GmbH): SenerTec, headquartered in Germany, is the most established European micro-CHP manufacturer with its Dachs CHP unit widely deployed across residential and small commercial buildings. SenerTec directly competes with EC Power's XRGI® line in the same micro-CHP category and similar building customer segments.

Emerging players

• MTT Micro Turbine Technology: MTT Micro Turbine Technology (Netherlands) develops micro-turbine CHP units for distributed combined heat and power applications. MTT overlaps with EC Power's on-site cogeneration value proposition, differentiating on turbine rather than reciprocating engine technology in the small-scale CHP niche.
