Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Description of business and basis of presentation | Description of Business and Basis of Presentation Description of Business Tecogen Inc., or we, our or us, produces commercial and industrial engine-driven, combined heat and power (CHP) products that reduce energy costs, decrease greenhouse gas emissions and alleviate congestion on the national power grid. Our products supply electric power or mechanical power for cooling, while heat from the engine is recovered and purposefully used at a facility. We also install, own, operate and maintain complete energy systems and other complementary systems at customer sites and sell electricity, hot water, heat and cooling energy under long-term contracts at prices guaranteed to the customer to be below conventional utility rates. The majority of our customers are located in regions with the highest utility rates, typically California, the Midwest and the Northeast. Our common stock is quoted on OTC Markets Group, Inc.'s OTCQX Best Market tier and trades under the symbol "TGEN." On May 18, 2017, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of American DG Energy Inc., formerly a related entity, in a stock-for-stock merger. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2020 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Tecogen's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of entities in which we have a controlling financial interest. Those entities include our wholly-owned subsidiaries American DG Energy Inc., Tecogen CHP Solutions, Inc., and a joint venture, American DG New York, LLC, in which American DG Energy Inc. holds a 51% interest. Investments in partnerships and companies in which we do not have a controlling financial interest but where we have significant influence are accounted for under the equity method. Any intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Our operations are comprised of two business segments. Our Products and Services segment designs, manufactures and sells industrial and commercial cogeneration systems as described above. Our Energy Production segment sells energy in the form of electricity, heat, hot water and cooling to our customers under long-term sales agreements. Reclassification Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Income Taxes The provisions for income taxes in the accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations differ from that which would be expected by applying the federal statutory tax rate primarily due to losses for which no benefit is recognized. Employee Retention Credit On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was signed into law providing numerous tax provisions and other stimulus measures, including an employee retention credit (“ERC”), which is a refundable tax credit against certain employment taxes. The Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2020 and the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 extended and expanded the availability of the ERC. Section 2301(c)(2)(B) of the CARES Act permits an employer to use an alternative quarter to calculate gross receipts and the employer may determine if the decline in gross receipt tests is met for a calendar quarter in 2021 by comparing its gross receipts for the immediately preceding calendar quarter with those for the corresponding calendar quarter in 2019. Accordingly, for the first quarter of 2021, we elected to use our gross receipts for the fourth calendar quarter of 2020 compared to our gross receipts for the fourth calendar quarter of 2019. As a result of our election to use an alternative quarter, we qualified for the ERC in the first, second and third quarters of 2021 because our gross receipts decreased by more than 20% from the first, second and third quarters of 2019. As a result of averaging 100 or fewer full-time employees in 2019, all wages paid to employees in the first, second and third quarters of 2021 were eligible for the ERC. Accounting Standards Codification 105, "Generally Accepted Accounting Principles," describes the decision-making framework when no guidance exists in US GAAP for a particular transaction. Specifically, ASC 105-10-05-2 instructs companies to look for guidance for a similar transaction within US GAAP and apply that guidance by analogy. As such, forms of government assistance, such as the ERC, provided to business entities would not be within the scope of ASC 958, but it may be applied by analogy under ASC 105-10-05-2. We accounted for the Employee Retention Credit as a government grant in accordance with Accounting Standards Update 2013-06, Not-for-Profit Entities (Topic 958) ("ASU 2013-06") by analogy under ASC 105-10-05-2. Under this standard, government grants are recognized when the conditions or conditions on which they depend are substantially met. The conditions for recognition of the ERC include, but are not limited to: • An entity has been adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic • We have not used qualifying payroll for both the Paycheck Protection Program and the ERC • We incurred payroll costs to retain employees • The process for filing for the credit is an administrative task and not a barrier to receiving the credits During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recorded ERC benefits of $562,253 and $1,276,021, respectively in other income (expense), net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. A current receivable in the amount of $1,276,021 is included in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021. |

Revenue Recognition [Abstract] | |
Revenue | Revenue Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied; generally this occurs with the transfer of control of our products, services and energy production. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services or energy to customers. Shipping and handling fees billed to customers in a sales transaction are recorded in revenue and shipping and handling costs incurred are recorded in cost of sales. We have elected to exclude from revenue any value add sales and other taxes which we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities. These accounting policy elections are consistent with the manner in which we historically recorded shipping and handling fees and value-added taxes. Incremental costs incurred by us to obtain a contract with a customer are negligible, if any, and are expensed ratably in proportion to the related revenue recognized. Disaggregated Revenue In general, our business segmentation is aligned according to the nature and economic characteristics of our products and customer relationships and provides meaningful disaggregation of each business segment's results of operations. The following table further disaggregates our revenue by major source by segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. Three Months Ended September 30, 2021 Products and Services Energy Production Total Products $ 1,871,332 $ — $ 1,871,332 Installation services 63,076 — 63,076 Maintenance services 2,766,168 — 2,766,168 Energy production — 315,292 315,292 Total revenue $ 4,700,576 $ 315,292 $ 5,015,868 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 Products and Services Energy Production Total Products $ 6,439,981 $ — $ 6,439,981 Installation services 825,325 — 825,325 Maintenance services 8,613,377 — 8,613,377 Energy production — 1,339,448 1,339,448 Total revenue $ 15,878,683 $ 1,339,448 $ 17,218,131 Three Months Ended September 30, 2020 Products and Services Energy Production Total Products $ 2,705,422 $ — $ 2,705,422 Installation services 1,513,686 — 1,513,686 Maintenance services 2,611,904 — 2,611,904 Energy production — 368,695 368,695 Total revenue $ 6,831,012 $ 368,695 $ 7,199,707 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 Products and Services Energy Production Total Products $ 9,543,316 $ — $ 9,543,316 Installation services 4,125,191 — 4,125,191 Maintenance services 7,533,072 — 7,533,072 Energy production — 1,395,886 1,395,886 Total revenue $ 21,201,579 $ 1,395,886 $ 22,597,465 Product and Services Segment Products. Our Product revenues include cogeneration systems that supply electricity and hot water, chillers that provide air-conditioning and hot water and engineered accessories, which consist of ancillary products and parts necessary to install a cogeneration unit including integration into the customers’ existing electrical and mechanical systems. Prior to January 1, 2021, engineered accessories revenue and cost of sales had been reported in our financial statements under Installation Services. Engineered accessories revenue and cost of sales from prior periods have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. We refer to the package of engineered accessories and engineering and design services necessary for the customers' installation of a cogeneration unit as light installation services. We transfer control and generally recognize a sale when we ship a product from our manufacturing facility at which point the customer takes ownership of the product. Payment terms on product sales are generally 30 days. We recognize revenue in certain circumstances before delivery to the customer has occurred (commonly referred to as bill and hold transactions). We recognize revenue related to such transactions once, among other things, the customer has made a written fixed commitment to purchase the product(s) under normal billing and credit terms, the customer has requested the product(s) be held for future delivery as scheduled and designated by them, risk of ownership has been assumed by the customer, and the product(s) are tagged as sold and segregated for storage awaiting further direction from the customer. Due to the infrequent nature and duration of bill and hold arrangements, the value associated with custodial storage services is deemed immaterial in the context of the contract and in total, and accordingly, none of the transaction price is allocated to such service. Depending on the product and terms of the arrangement, we may defer the recognition of a portion of the transaction price received because we have to satisfy a future obligation (e.g., product start-up service). Amounts allocated to product start-up services are recognized as revenue when the start-up service has been completed. We use an observable selling price to determine standalone selling prices where available and either a combination of an adjusted market assessment approach, an expected cost plus a margin approach, and/or a residual approach to determine the standalone selling prices for separate performance obligations as a basis for allocating contract consideration when an observable selling price is not available. Amounts received but not recognized pending completion of performance are recognized as contract liabilities and are recorded as deferred revenue along with deposits by customers. Installation Services. We provide installation services typically including all necessary engineering and design, labor, subcontract labor and service to install a cogeneration unit including integration into the customers’ existing electrical and mechanical systems. Under complete turnkey installation service contracts revenue is recognized over time using the percentage-of-completion method determined on a cost to cost basis. Our performance obligation under such contracts is satisfied progressively over time as enhancements are made to customer owned and controlled properties. We measure progress towards satisfaction of the performance obligation based on an cost-based input method which we believe appropriately measures and is the most accurate depiction of the transfer of products and services to the customer under these contracts. When the financial metrics of a contract indicate a loss, our policy is to record the entire expected loss as soon as it is known. Contract costs and profit recognized to date under the percentage-of-completion method in excess of billings are recognized as contract assets and are recorded as unbilled revenue. Billings in excess of contract costs and profit are recognized as contract liabilities and are recorded as deferred revenue. Generally billings under complete turnkey installation contracts are made when contractually determined milestones of progress have been achieved, with payment terms generally being 30 days. Maintenance Services. Maintenance services are provided under either long-term maintenance contracts or time and material maintenance contracts. Revenue under time and material maintenance contracts is recognized when the maintenance service is completed. Revenue under long-term maintenance contracts is recognized either ratably over the term of the contract where the contract price is fixed or when the periodic maintenance activities are completed where the invoiced cost to the customer is based on run hours or kilowatts produced in a given period. We use an output method to measure progress towards completion of our performance obligation which results in the recognition of revenue on the basis of a direct measurement of the value to the customer of the services transferred to date relative to the remaining services promised under the contract. We use the practical expedient at ASC 606-10-55-18 of recognizing revenue in an amount equal to the amount we have the right to invoice the customer under the contract. Payment terms for maintenance services are generally 30 days. Energy Production Segment Energy Production. Revenue from energy contracts is recognized when electricity, heat, hot and/or chilled water is produced by our owned on-site cogeneration systems. Each month we invoice the customer and recognize revenue for the various forms of energy delivered, based on actual meter readings which capture the quantity of the various forms of energy delivered in a given month, under a contractually defined formula which takes into account the current month's cost of energy from the local power utility. As the various forms of energy delivered by us under energy production contracts are simultaneously delivered and consumed by the customer, our performance obligation under these contracts is considered to be satisfied over time. We use an output method to measure progress towards completion of our performance obligation which results in the recognition of revenue on the basis of a direct measurement of the value to the customer of the services transferred to date relative to the remaining services promised under the contract. We use the practical expedient at ASC 606-10-55-18 of recognizing revenue in an amount equal to the amount that we have the right to invoice the customer under the contract. Payment terms on invoices under these contracts are generally 30 days. Contract Balances The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections result in billed accounts receivable, unbilled revenue (contract assets) and deferred revenue, consisting of customer deposits and billings in excess of revenue recognized (contract liabilities) on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Revenue recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 that was included in unbilled revenue at the end of the period was approximately $1.0 million. Approximately $0.7 million was billed in this period that had been recognized as revenue in previous periods. Revenue recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 that was included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the period was approximately $1.2 million. Remaining Performance Obligations Remaining performance obligations related to ASC 606 represent the aggregate transaction price allocated to performance obligations with an original contract term of greater than one year, excluding certain maintenance contracts and all energy production contracts where a direct measurement of the value to the customer is used as a method of measuring progress towards completion of our performance obligation. Exclusion of these remaining performance obligations is due in part to the inability to quantify values based on unknown future levels of delivery and in some cases rates used to invoice customers. Remaining performance obligations therefore consist of unsatisfied or partially satisfied performance obligations related to fixed price maintenance contracts and installation contracts. As of September 30, 2021, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was approximately $2.1 million. We expect to recognize revenue of approximately 92.4% of the remaining performance obligations over the next 24 months, 88.1% recognized in the first 12 months and 4.3% recognized over the subsequent 12 months, and the remainder recognized thereafter. |

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] | |
Sale of Energy Producing Assets and Goodwill Impairment | Sale of Energy Producing Assets and Goodwill ImpairmentDuring the first quarter of 2019 we recognized two individual sales of energy producing assets, for a total of eight power purchase agreements, including the associated energy production contracts for total consideration of $7 million. In connection with these assets sales, we entered into agreements with the purchaser to maintain and operate the assets over the remaining periods of the associated energy production contracts (through August 2033 and January 2034, respectively) in exchange for monthly maintenance and operating fees. These agreements contain provisions whereby we have guaranteed to the purchaser a minimum level or threshold of cash flows from the associated energy production contracts. Actual results are compared to the minimum threshold bi-annually and we are contractually obligated to reimburse any shortfall to the purchaser. To the extent actual cash flow results exceed the minimum threshold, we are entitled to fifty percent of such excess under the agreements. The foregoing agreements also contain provisions whereby we have agreed to make whole the purchaser in the event the counterparty to the energy production contract(s) defaults on or otherwise terminates before the stated expiration of the energy production contract. Should we be required to make whole the purchaser under such provisions, we would be entitled to seek recovery from the counterparty to the energy production contract(s) under a similar provision contained in those contracts in respect of early termination. |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Leases | Leases Our leases principally consist of operating leases related to our corporate office, field offices, and our research, manufacturing and storage facilities. At inception, we determine if an arrangement contains a lease and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a finance or operating lease. Some of our lease agreements contain lease components (e.g. minimum rent payments) and non-lease components (e.g. maintenance, labor charges, etc.). We account for each component separately based on the estimated standalone price of each component. Operating leases are included in Right-of-use assets, Lease obligations, current and Lease obligations, long term on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. These assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term and using an incremental borrowing rate consistent with the lease terms or implicit rates, when readily determinable. For those leases where it is reasonably certain at the commencement date that we will exercise the option to extend the lease, then the lease term will include the lease extension term. Short-term operating leases, which have an initial term of 12 months or less, are not recorded on the balance sheet. Lease expense for operating leases, which principally consist of fixed payments for base rent, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was $197,651 and $591,867 and $179,042 and $565,180, respectively. Supplemental information related to leases for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was as follows: Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities $ 534,073 Weighted-average remaining lease term - operating leases 4.1 years Weighted-average discount rate - operating leases 6 % Future minimum lease commitments under non-cancellable operating leases as of September 30, 2021 were as follows: Operating Leases Year 1 $ 181,566 Year 2 733,693 Year 3 744,981 Year 4 298,980 Year 5 108,762 Thereafter 331,128 Total lease payments 2,399,110 Less: imputed interest 290,665 Total $ 2,108,445 |

Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation Stock-Based Compensation We adopted a 2006 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, or the Plan, under which the Board of Directors may grant incentive or non-qualified stock options and stock grants to key employees, directors, advisors and consultants. The Plan was amended at various dates by the Board of Directors to increase the reserved shares of common stock issuable under the Amended Plan to 3,838,750 as of September 30, 2021, and in June 2017 stockholders approved an amendment to extend the termination date of the Plan to January 1, 2026 and ratified all of our option grants issued after January 1, 2016 (the "Amended Plan"). Stock options vest based upon the terms within the individual option grants, with an acceleration of the unvested portion of such options upon a change in control event, as defined in the Amended Plan. The options are not transferable except by will or domestic relations order. The option price per share under the Amended Plan cannot be less than the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of the grant. The number of shares remaining available for future issuance under the Amended Plan as of September 30, 2021 was 710,068. Stock option activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was as follows: Common Stock Options Number of Exercise Weighted Weighted Aggregate Outstanding, December 31, 2020 2,496,242 $0.71-$10.33 $ 1.94 7.37 years $ 731,744 Granted 208,000 $1.75 $ 1.75 Exercised — Canceled and forfeited (253,500) $2.60 $ 2.60 Outstanding, September 30, 2021 2,450,742 $0.71-$10.33 $ 1.86 7.62 years $ 1,608,837 Exercisable, September 30, 2021 794,533 $ 3.48 $ 163,557 Vested and expected to vest, September 30, 2021 2,202,311 $ 1.95 $ 1,392,045 |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The fair value topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The accounting guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available, and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. We currently do not have any Level 1 financial assets or liabilities. Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in non-active markets, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. We have Level 2 financial assets and liabilities as provided below. Level 3 - Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the input used in pricing the asset or liability. We do not currently have any Level 3 financial assets or liabilities. The following tables presents the asset reported in "other assets" in the consolidated balance sheet measured at its fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 by level within the fair value hierarchy.

That measurement is equal to the quoted market closing price at period end. Since this security is not actively traded we classify it as Level 2. The following table summarizes changes in Level 2 assets which are comprised of marketable equity securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020: Fair value at December 31, 2020 $ 118,084 Sale of 93,187 shares (5,591) Unrealized gain 18,749 Fair value at September 30, 2021 $ 131,242 Fair value at December 31, 2019 $ 216,487 Unrealized loss (98,403) Fair value at September 30, 2020 $ 118,084 During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we received net proceeds of $11,637 from the sale of 93,187 shares of Eurosite Power, Inc. common stock, and recognized a realized gain of $6,046 which is included in other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. |

Debt Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Revolving Line of Credit and Notes Payable | Revolving Line of Credit and Notes Payable On May 4, 2018 we entered into a Credit Agreement with Webster Business Credit Corporation ("Webster") that provided a line of credit of up to $10 million to us on a revolving and secured basis, with availability based on certain accounts receivables, raw materials, and finished goods. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bore interest at a rate equal to, at our option, either (1) One Month LIBOR, plus 3.00%, or (2) Webster’s Base Rate, plus 1.5%. Webster’s Base Rate is defined as the highest of (a) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5%, (b) Webster’s Prime Rate as adjusted by bank from time to time, and (c) One Month LIBOR, plus 2.75%. The Credit Agreement contained certain affirmative and negative covenants applicable to us, which included, among other things, restrictions on our ability to (i) incur additional indebtedness, (ii) make certain investments, (iii) acquire other entities, (iv) dispose of assets and (v) make certain payments including those related to dividends or repurchase of equity. The Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants including maintaining a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.10:1.00 and we may not make any financed capital expenditures in excess of $500,000 in the aggregate in any fiscal year. The $145,011 of costs incurred in connection with the issuance of the revolving credit facility were capitalized and were being amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis over three years based on the contractual term of the Agreement. On May 11, 2020, we terminated our Credit Agreement with Webster, together with several related agreements including, a Revolving Note Security Agreement, Blocked Account Agreement, and Master Letter of Credit Agreement. We paid an early termination fee of $25,000 to terminate the Credit Agreement. As of May 11, 2020, the outstanding balance under the line of credit and accrued and unpaid interest was $0. Paycheck Protection Program Loan On April 17, 2020, we obtained an unsecured loan through Webster Bank, N.A. in the amount of $1,874,200 in connection with the Paycheck Protection Program pursuant to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, as amended ("CARES Act”) administered by the United States Small Business Administration ("SBA"). The loan was guaranteed by the SBA. Interest on the loan balance was at the rate of 1% per year, and as a result of the enactment of the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act of 2020 (“PPP Flexibility Act”), repayment of the loan balance could be deferred until August 2021, at which time the balance would be payable in 18 monthly installments of $106,356 with the final payment due in January 2023 if not forgiven in accordance with the CARES Act and the terms of the Promissory Note executed by us in connection with the loan. The loan could be prepaid at any time without penalty. The loan agreement and promissory note include customary provisions for a loan of this type, including prohibitions on our payment of dividends or repurchase of shares of our common stock while the loan remains outstanding. The loan agreement and promissory note also defines events of default to include, among other things, payment defaults, breaches of provisions of the loan agreement or the promissory note and cross-defaults on other loans, if applicable. On January 19, 2021, we received a letter dated January 12, 2021 from Webster Bank, NA confirming that the Paycheck Protection Program Loan issued to us pursuant to the CARES Act, as amended, in the original principal amount of $1,874,200 together with accrued interest of $13,659 was forgiven in full as of January 11, 2021. We have accounted for the loan forgiveness of $1,887,859 as debt extinguishment in accordance with Accounting Standards Update 2020-09, Debt (Topic 470) ("ASU 2020-09") and reported as a separate component of other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The loan forgiveness is expected to be nontaxable for both state and federal purposes and has been treated accordingly in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Paycheck Protection Program Second Draw Loan On February 5, 2021, we obtained a Paycheck Protection Program Second Draw unsecured loan through Webster Bank, N.A. in the amount of $1,874,269 pursuant to the CARES Act. The loan was guaranteed by the SBA. Interest on the loan balance was at the rate of 1% per year, and repayment of the loan balance could be deferred until June 5, 2022. If not forgiven in accordance with the CARES Act, as amended, the loan was repayable in forty-four (44) monthly installments of $43,400 beginning July 5, 2022 with final payment due on February 5, 2026. The loan could be prepaid at any time without penalty. The loan agreement and promissory note included customary provisions for a loan of this type, including prohibitions on our payment of dividends or repurchase of shares of our common stock while the loan remains outstanding. The loan agreement and promissory note defines events of default to include, among other things, payment defaults, breaches of provisions of the loan agreement or the promissory note and cross-defaults on other loans, if applicable. On September 20, 2021, we received a letter dated September 13, 2021 from Webster Bank, NA confirming that the Paycheck Protection Program Second Draw Loan issued to us pursuant to the CARES Act, as amended, in the original principal amount of $1,874,269 together with accrued interest of $11,386 was forgiven in full as of September 8, 2021. We have accounted for the loan forgiveness of $1,885,655 as debt extinguishment in accordance with Accounting Standards Update 2020-09, Debt (Topic 470) ("ASU 2020-09") and reported as a separate component of other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. The loan forgiveness is expected to be nontaxable for both state and federal purposes and has been treated accordingly in our condensed consolidated financial statements. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2020 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Tecogen's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of entities in which we have a controlling financial interest. Those entities include our wholly-owned subsidiaries American DG Energy Inc., Tecogen CHP Solutions, Inc., and a joint venture, American DG New York, LLC, in which American DG Energy Inc. holds a 51% interest. Investments in partnerships and companies in which we do not have a controlling financial interest but where we have significant influence are accounted for under the equity method. Any intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Use of Estimates | Use of EstimatesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The provisions for income taxes in the accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations differ from that which would be expected by applying the federal statutory tax rate primarily due to losses for which no benefit is recognized. |
