China Energy Recovery Announces First Nine Months of 2008
Demonstrate Significant Growth Over 2007
Total value of completed contracts in the first nine months of 2008 already exceed that of all of 2007 by nearly 20%
SHANGHAI, CHINA - October 6, 2008 - China Energy Recovery, Inc. (OTCBB: CGYV) ("China Energy Recovery" or "CER"), a leader in the waste heat energy recovery sector of the alternative energy industry, announced today that the total contract value for contracts and orders completed during the first nine months of 2008 has reached RMB 130 million (approximately US $19 million with the exchange rate as of this press release). That represents an increase of nearly RMB 20 million (nearly US $3 million) over the RMB 110 million of contracts and orders completed for the whole year of 2007.
“We’re very pleased to see the significant growth CER has enjoyed through the first three quarters of 2008, and are looking forward to what looks to be shaping up to be a robust fourth quarter,” stated CER Chairman and CEO, Mr. Qinghuan Wu. “Our systems are now operating in facilities reaching from Korea to Egypt, from Vietnam to Pakistan and throughout China. New systems will soon be operating in Malaysia, Turkey and as far away as Papua New Guinea. We’re very pleased with the growth in both our domestic and foreign sales and look forward to expanding those efforts as we look to further develop all of our markets in 2009 and beyond.”
The numbers presented above are total contract values, which include a 17% value added tax and the retainage amounts for product warranty purposes which are usually 5% to 10% of the total contract values and will be recognized as deferred revenues.
What is Waste Heat Energy Recovery?
Industrial facilities and power plants release significant amounts of excess heat into the atmosphere in the form of hot exhaust gases or high-pressure steam. Energy recovery is the process of recovering vast amounts of that wasted energy and converting it into usable electricity, dramatically lowering energy costs. Energy recovery systems are also capable of capturing the majority of carbon emissions and other harmful pollutants that would otherwise be released into the environment. It is estimated that energy recovery systems installed in U.S. industrial facilities could produce up to 20% of U.S. electricity needs without burning any additional fossil fuel, and could help many industries to meet stringent environmental regulations.
