Clenergen Philippines Corporation, a subsidiary of Clenergen
Corporation (OTCQB: CRGE)(FRANKFURT: 9CE) announced today that it
had signed a strategic partnership with PowerSource Philippines,
Inc.("PowerSource") to accelerate the installation of up to 30MW of
rural "off grid "renewable electricity to both island communities
and major mining companies over the next three years, with
projected income in excess of $35 million per annum.
Currently, the majority of island communities are supplied with
electricity from diesel generators at a cost of around 32 cents per
KWh and continue to face up to 12 hour black outs due to
inconsistent supplies of diesel. PowerSource has been granted a 15
year exclusive franchise to generate and distribute power to
specified rural areas, and is the first Qualified Third Party
("QTP") to be certified under the Philippines Electric Power
Industry Reform Act. PowerSource enjoys strong financial support
with investors including, credit Suisse (US$25 million already
invested), E+Co a US private equity fund (US 3.35Million in project
financing facilities) and the Overseas Private Investment
Corporation (an arm of the U.S. Treasury).
The strategic partnership will combine Clenergen's proprietary
plant science for the cultivation of energy crops to supply small
biomass power plants that will be financed by PowerSource and then
distributed though PowerSource's transmission network. Both parties
will proportionally share in the revenues generated from the
cultivation of biomass and each party's sale of electricity to both
captive end users and the Philippine Government.
Commenting on the announcement, Miguel Patolot, Non Executive
Chairman of Clenergen Philippines said "The partnership will bring
the extensive experience of off-grid power generation of
PowerSource and the cutting edge plant science technology of
Clenergen into synergy. This partnership will provide
infrastructure and equipment financing to support the commercial
rollout of energy crop plantations throughout the island
communities".
Frederick Lacroix, Chairman and Chief Executive officer of
PowerSource "We welcome this partnership agreement because
Clenergen's strength in feedstock plantation technology will insure
our client's receive sustainable and competitively priced
electricity and allow accelerated growth throughout the regions
where we have been granted exclusive franchises."
