- 2G to offer customers CHP power plant leasing

- "Innovation without Investment" both as rental or lease model for 2G
power plant financing available

Heek, Germany, June 8, 2015 - 2G Energy AG, a leading German manufacturer
of combined heat and power (CHP) systems, and De Lage Landen Leasing GmbH
(DLL), a global provider of leasing and financing solutions for companies
and a vendor finance specialist, are about to conclude a cooperation
agreement to offer leasing and hire purchase arrangements for 2G's natural
gas and biogas driven CHP plants in Germany. This cooperation agreement
enables 2G Rental GmbH, a wholly owned subsidiary of 2G Energy AG, to offer
its customers simple processing for the financing and refinancing of 2G
power plants.

As a CHP system manufacturer, 2G is thereby now also offering its customers
a lease solution to realize energy generation concepts by way of combined
heat and power, as an alternative to direct purchasing and rental transfer
for use. Under the slogan of "Innovation without Investing", the CHP system
lease model will be available on the market through 2G's sales operations,
especially in the technically standardized 2G CHP output class between 20
kWel and 550 kWel, as well as in the higher output range in the case of
standardized container solutions. For 2G's customers entering into a rent
or lease contract a premium service contract is mandatory. Through its
regular service 2G guarantees a very high availability of the CHPs.
Therefore, economics of 2G CHPs for the customers are best.

These value retaining CHP systems are generally to be returned to the
manufacturer at the end of the lease duration. Such standardized products
can be utilized easily at other deployment locations. This consequently
makes it easier to establish a second-hand market for technically rebuilt
2G CHP systems fitted with a new warranty. It also enables 2G CHP systems
to be sold in countries that have not been tapped sustainably for new
systems to date due to affordability.

Markus Kruse, Managing Director of 2G Rental GmbH: "Together with the
rental model, 2G Energy AG through its 2G Rental subsidiary has now created
two classic, standardized sales financing instruments. This allows us to
offer our customers on a one-stop-shop basis individual solutions that span
the CHP system itself, premium service contracts, providing financing
