REGI U.S. INC. And Its Subsidiary, RadMax Technologies, Inc.  Collaborating with EEMS International and Trans African Energy to Improve Heat Pump Efficiency for African Markets

SPOKANE, Wash., Jan. 17, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- REGI U.S., Inc. (“REGI” or “RGUS” or "the Company") (OTCQB:RGUS), The Board of Directors, Regi U.S., Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, RadMax Technologies, Inc. (RadMax), announced today the collaboration with EEMS International (EEMS), Guatemala City, Guatemala and Trans African Energy Pty Ltd. (TAE), Nairobi, Kenya to improve the overall efficiency of innovative heat pump units being developed specifically for African markets.

RadMax and EEMS are evaluating the use of RadMax’s Two-Phase Expander Generator (TPXG) in EEMS heat pump systems to confirm its ability to reduce operating costs by increasing overall system efficiency by 5 - 15%. The RadMax TPXG is able to capture energy normally lost as compressed gases pass through the expansion valves used in traditional vapor-compression heat pump systems. This energy is then converted to electricity which is used to reduce the overall energy consumption of the system.

EEMS and TAE are advocating for the development of “greener” and more efficient energy sources for the African continent. Upon successful completion of testing, TAE will enter into negotiations to become the exclusive distributor of the higher efficiency EEMS / RadMax heat pump systems for African markets. These high efficiency, low energy consuming systems are targeted for the agricultural zones of the fast-growing economies of the Eastern Africa Region (EAR).  Electricity from the grid in these areas is not always available making these systems highly desirable for heating, cooling and drying applications.

Laboratory testing will begin in early 2019 at RadMax’s testing facilities in Spokane, WA using equipment supplied by EEMS.  Field testing is expected to commence in mid-2019 and continue through the end of the year at TAE selected locations in Africa. Upon successful completion of field testing, RadMax and EEMS intend to commercialize EEMS products in Africa through TAE. Additional collaboration between the parties will focus on the development of larger geothermal energy producing projects for the region.
