Viper Networks Poised to Capitalize on LED Street Light Conversions With Municipalities Domestically and Abroad
October 31 2012 - 8:10AM
Viper Networks, Inc. (Pink Sheets:VPER) is pleased to announce
positive developments for both LED lighting pilot programs with Sri
Lanka's Ministry of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources; and with
Colombo city officials representing the largest metropolitan area
in Sri Lanka.
Positive developments are two-fold, as the time period for each
pilot project is expected to be reduced by at least 50 percent, to
30 days maximum for each pilot installation and testing program,
respectively; and manufacturing capabilities for the Company's
exclusive partner Apollo Metro Solutions are quickly ramping up to
achieve greater production capacity by mid-December.
While the Company seeks to install indoor lighting and street
lights for all of Sri Lanka's 18 existing harbors and 11 new
harbors under construction, the anticipated agreement (upon pilot
project completion) for approximately 100 to 200 indoor lights and
street lights per location represent the much smaller of the two
pilot programs.
The Company's priority to establish significantly increased
manufacturing capacity with Apollo Metro reflects in part, Viper
Networks targeting much larger LED Street Light municipality
clients for economically fast growing countries with major cities
abroad, as well as a domestic focus on securing agreements with
certain municipalities with multiple cities and towns within one or
more U.S. counties for potential large scale LED street light
replacement business.
As detailed in the announcement dated October 10, 2012; the
Company has reached agreement with top officials of Colombo, Sri
Lanka to initiate a short-term pilot program for testing Apollo
Metro Solutions' LED Street Lights with installations along one
main boulevard in Colombo, the country's provincial capital and
largest metropolitan area with approximately 1.5 million
people.
The Sri Lanka Ministry of Fisheries pilot program could lead to
a total order of 2,000 to 3,000 indoor and street light
installations for all existing harbors, however; the city of
Colombo's LED Street Light pilot program is expected to lead to
full order estimates totaling approximately 200,000 LED Street
Light units for Colombo alone.
In a country with a population in excess of 20 million people,
Sri Lanka hosts a concentration of citizens in 15 major cities
throughout the country's 9 geographical provinces. Since Viper
Networks' CEO is conducting business with Sri Lanka government
officials, LED street light testing and installation success is
expected to lead directly to securing additional agreements with
other major cities throughout the country.
Sri Lanka officials have requested that the forthcoming LED
Street Light pilot project for Colombo include the all-in-one
street light housing unit option for wireless utility meter reading
and advanced metering infrastructure solutions. Noting such
confirmation, Viper Networks CEO will be traveling to Colombo, Sri
Lanka to accompany the first delivery of LED street light units in
the month ahead, which will include the wireless meter reading
feature built-in to the all-in-one housing unit, and meet with Sri
Lanka officials as the Company begins the anticipated LED Street
Light pilot project prior to commencement of a city wide roll-out
shortly after pilot success.
If the Company is able to obtain the additional wireless meter
reading option approval after review by Sri Lanka's Minister of
Water Management, shareholders and potential investors should note
that each LED Street Light priced in the range of $500 to $1000
will more closely price out at the latter figure per unit.
Based on the minimum of 10,000 street light unit installations
monthly, the potential gross value monthly amount will be
approximately $7,500,000 to $8,000,000 (per month), which will
continued for approximately 20 months and potentially represent a
total value of up to $150 million (U.S. dollars), as it relates to
the complete delivery and installation of all 200,000 LED street
lights.
The Company encourages all investors and Viper Networks
shareholders to view all LED Lighting and Intelligent Solution
