Memorandum of Understanding
with
County Executives of America
Cinpart plc (AIM:CINP), is delighted to announce that Active Energy Limited
("Active Energy"), its subsidiary company, has signed a Memorandum of
Understanding ("MoU") with County Executives of America ("County Executives"),
which represents county leaders across 700 counties in the USA, acting on behalf
of 48 per cent. of the US population.
Significantly, the MoU sets out terms for County Executives to support the
development of Active Energy's presence in the USA. This includes promoting
Active Energy both at a senior level in Washington DC, from Congress up to the
White House, and to county authorities nationwide.
Active Energy provides voltage optimisation technology which can reduce the
energy consumption and CO2 emissions of commercial buildings by up to 20 per
cent., with average savings of 12 per cent. Under the terms of the MoU, County
Executives will work with Active Energy in order to secure sales with county
authority owned public facilities such as prisons, schools and hospitals which
could benefit from the technology. In addition, the MoU includes the
facilitation of potential partnerships with specific utility companies.
In order to support its expansion in the USA, the Company is also considering
establishing a US based assembly facility. This would provide the necessary
additional capacity to service demand in a cost effective location. Active
Energy has already worked with County Executives to identify a suitable location
and in accordance with the MoU, County Executives would offer further assistance
in setting up a facility, in particular with accessing grants and financial
incentives.
Kevin Baker, Chief Executive of Cinpart, commented:
"The MoU with County Executives of America represents significant progress in
our ambition to establish Active Energy's technology in the USA. We have been
working with the organisation to build awareness of our technology amongst both
commercial and governmental bodies. With the support of County Executives, we
now look forward to expanding on the initial interest generated in order to take
advantage of the considerable opportunities available in the US."
