FRANKLINTON, N.C. and VALETTA, Malta, Dec. 3, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- PRTI®, (http://www.prtitech.com) a leading waste tire to energy business based in Franklinton, North Carolina, has announced it has agreed to sell a majority controlling position in the company to Energen Global LTD (http://www.energenglobal.com) based in Malta, with offices in the UK. The transaction, at an undisclosed value, returns capital to PRTI's shareholders and provides growth funds for its rapid national expansion.

Jason A. Williams, President and CEO of PRTI said, "having evolved our technology to a high level of repeatability with over 90,000 operating hours and over 8400 starts/stops we are ready to scale. Our partnership with Energen Global, their team and capital, will enable the growth of PRTI. Energen Global focus on renewable, clean and alternative energy technologies, which demonstrate the mindset and resources to make them a natural partner in our next steps together. We are excited to augment the legacy grid here in the United States with our unique approach to energy creation and mining operations."

Speaking on behalf of Energen Gabriel O'Ciarba said " this has been one of the easiest investment decisions I have ever made, the team at PRTI lead by Jason Williams are exceptional, their technology is a game changer and the culture within the business is almost identical to that of Energen. Energen for some time have been working to expand our energy portfolio and, after much searching, we have identified PRTI's Thermal DeManufacturing® as the technology able to effectively create energy from tyres and is a natural fit for our existing technology portfolio." He continued "With the planned rapid national expansion of PRTI® locations, we will be able to build a decentralized energy grid comprising waste to value in an extraordinary way."
