Ze-gen lands $2.5m in financing

Boston-based energy company Ze-gen has raised $2.5 million from Pinnacle Ventures, a private venture capital fund located in California that provides debt and equity financing to early-stage companies.

Ze-gen is a clean energy company that develops and deploys waste gasification into synthesis gas with nearly zero emissions.

Since its founding in 2004, Ze-gen has raised more than $8 million. The money will be used to design and construct the first commercial size synthesis gas clean energy generator.
