NOVOFUEL SIGNS AGREEMENT FOR PILOT SITE IN MICHIGAN; LOCATION WILL ALLOW SHOWCASING OF OPTIMIZED RENEWABLE ENERGY SOLUTION FOR MEDICAL CANNABIS GROW OPERATIONS

PHILADELPHIA, PA - February 18, 2015 - InvestorsHub NewsWire - NovoFuel, Inc. (“NovoFuel”), a wholly-owned operating subsidiary of AlumiFuel Power Corporation (OTC Pink: AFPW), announced today that it has signed a contract for use of a ten acre parcel of land in Oceana County, Michigan to set up a pilot site showcasing its hybrid Renewable Energy Systems (RES) solution in support of medical cannabis grow operations.  (See NovoFuel News Release of January 28, 2015).  The land was purchased by the Michigan-based electrical contractor who is a member of the NovoFuel RES team, and NovoFuel will have use of the property for the RES installation and activities.  The electrical contractor, who is an experienced medical cannabis grower, will also provide on-site systems engineering and project management.

NovoFuel's hybrid RES solution for the Michigan site includes a 10kW wind turbine, a 12kW solar panel array, and an 18.6kW large format lithium-ion battery, as well as a real-time energy management & control module, and a site security module. After a thorough search for an ideal pilot site location, NovoFuel was fortunate to secure this particular property, since it is on a bluff and in a location with no restrictions on the height of the team's patented monopole tower for the wind turbine and site security components, and there is ample space for the solar panel array. The availability of sufficient wind and solar energy precludes the need for a hydrogen fuel cell at the Michigan pilot site.  NovoFuel's pilot site RES configuration will provide more than half of the 51,000 kilowatt-hours per year required for the grow operations. 

All of the NovoFuel RES components are items of commerce, and will be installed and integrated at the pilot site later this year, with a 3Q target date.  NovoFuel  has been contacted by other medical cannabis growers in Michigan who have expressed keen interest in an RES solution for their grow activities following successful operation of the pilot site. 

“Acquiring this pilot site location is a very significant step in implementing our Renewable Energy initiatives to serve the increasing power needs of cannabis growers nationwide and in Canada,” said Mr. David Cade, President and CEO of NovoFuel.
