Renewable Energy Stocks Green Investor Audio Interview with Ezra Green, CEO & Chairman of Clear Skies Solar, Inc. (OTCBB: CSKH)
Patented XTRAXR Technology Estimated at $500 million - $1 billion Globally
POINT ROBERTS, WA and DELTA, BC—August 26, 2008 -- www.RenewableEnergyStocks.com,
a leading investor news and research portal for the renewable energy sector within Investorideas.com, presents a green investor audio interview featuring Ezra Green, CEO and Chairman of Clear Skies Solar, Inc. (OTCBB: CSKH).
In discussing the announced completion of a major project in the second Q, Ezra Green details the scope, timelines of the project, and the profit margins for the company.
Mr. Green reports, “This particular project took us six weeks to complete. As far as profit margins, every project is different but we like to work in the arena of 15-25% margins.”
Answering how the company manages foreign projects, such as the 150kW solar contract through its partnership in Greece with Larissa-based, Aspen Energy, Mr. Green explains,” We have a very strong operations team and we have strong ties to the local communities with our partners. We are able to operate and execute as if we were nationals.”
In terms of the company’s business model, to compliment and add to the primary business of solar installations, Clear Skies Solar has taken advantage of intelligence in the field and developed some in- house proprietary technologies. Mr. Green describes the company’s current portfolio and market niches.
In commenting on the potential of the first patent, XTRAXR, the first of its kind to handle the trading of carbon credits and comprehensive billing procedures, he states, “We are estimating the market for us to be about $500 million to $1 billion globally. This product was developed specifically to capture the actual real time readings of the small systems, which up until now have been too expensive to monitor by conventional means. With our product, we are talking about pennies per day.”
In closing, Mr. Green comments, “Many countries are adopting solar programs like Greece, India and Italy, which we are all involved with. We don’t focus only on the United States, although it is a huge market for us, we view it as an addition to global markets.”

Renewable Energy Stocks Green Investor Audio Interview with
Renewable Energy Stocks Green Investor Audio Interview with
Tom Djokovich, CEO of Thin Film Solar Company, XsunX, Inc. (OTCBB: XSNX)
“We’ve designed our solar modules specifically for the electrical utilities scale market”
POINT ROBERTS, WA and DELTA, BC—August 19, 2008 -- www.RenewableEnergyStocks.com,
a leading investor news and research portal for the renewable energy sector within Investorideas.com, presents a green investor audio interview with Tom Djokovich, CEO of XsunX, Inc. (OTCBB: XSNX). XsunX, Inc is a solar technology Company engaged in the build-out of its multi-megawatt thin film photovoltaic solar manufacturing facilities.
In the interview, Tom Djokovich, CEO of XsunX discusses the company’s business model, the thin film solar technology, recent progress, market drivers and current bids and proposals in the pipeline.
“A year ago we designed a solar module and a manufacturing system to produce it. In January we began building a manufacturing facility near Portland Oregon. To start, we will build about 25 megawatts of production capacity, which represents approximately 200,000 marketable solar panels per year, and then grow that capacity to 35 megawatts by improving our system performance and adding work shifts. We then plan to begin efforts to scale to 100 megawatts of manufacturing capacity by some time in 2010”, Tom Djokovich summarizes in describing his business model.
According to Mr. Djokovich, “Our modules are designed for the electrical utilities scale market where thousands of solar modules are used in each power field. We have started bidding projects for utilities and government agencies to install our modules. The second part of our target market is the conventional installer and integrator where we have received significant requests for purchases of our modules in 2009 and later.”
In addressing the opportunity, Mr. Djokovich notes “The electrical market is enormous. To keep up with demand, the utilities are reaching out for new power production methods that are clean and safe. Long term, these power fields are great investments that can provide a 5 year payback on the average installation and then you have 15 years of cash flow with low operating costs. We see this trend picking up significantly and have positioned ourselves to take advantage of this opportunity.”

Mantra Venture Group Provides Update on its ERC technology
Mantra Venture Group Provides Update on its ERC technology
SEATTLE, Aug. 12 - Mantra Venture Group Ltd. (OTCBB: MVTG - FSE: 5MV) is pleased to provide an update on the progress of its ERC (Electro Reduction of Carbon Dioxide) technology at its laboratory. The following tasks have been completed to date:
- The preliminary process flow diagram has been reviewed and updated;
- Material compatible for the project have been reviewed;
- Major components have been selected and ordered;
- Electrochemical cells have been received from the University of
British Columbia and are currently being refurbished for the project;
and
- A one year research and development schedule has been completed.
In addition, assembly of the test rig is underway under the oversight of Mr. Norman Chow, the President of Kemetco Research Inc. Mr. Chow is highly experienced in serving his various clients in designing test and research protocols to achieve specific ends within budget and on schedule. In this project he is working closely with Professor Colin Oloman, one of the inventors and an individual who is very knowledgeable about the ERC chemistry and underlying processes. They have worked together previously and understand one another which allows them to easily communicate and to concentrate on the complexities required in the project.
Kemetco's Senior Research Scientist on the project, Mr. Joey Jung, has a solid background in electrochemical engineering, battery research, fuel cell and electrowinning technologies. He has direct understanding of what must be accomplished from his own inventions, and from making numerous patent applications. Mr. Jung has overseen most of the purchasing for the test rig and is assembling manufacturing diagrams.
The ERC process takes carbon dioxide and water, combined with electricity, to produce fuels and chemicals such as formic acid, formates and oxygen. The scientific research conducted on the ERC process was summarized in three papers. Two papers were published in Journal of Applied Electrochemistry(1),(2) and one published in Chem Sus Chem(3).
Larry Kristof, Mantra's C.E.O., commented "The ERC test station is scheduled to be assembled by September 19, 2008 and online by September 30, 2008. Mantra is very excited to push this technology through to the marketplace. Implementation of this technology will have a significant impact on our current climate change crisis."

Clear Skies Solar Awarded Contract in Larissa, Greece Valued at Approximately US $1 Million
Clear Skies Solar Awarded Contract in Larissa, Greece Valued at Approximately US $1 Million
International Expansion Begins With Initial 150kW Contract
NEW YORK - Clear Skies Solar, Inc. (OTCBB: CSKH), a leading developer and provider of solar power solutions, today announced the awarding of a 150kW solar contract through its newly established partnership in Greece with Larissa-based, Aspen Energy. This project is valued at approximately US $1 million.
“The key in any good clean energy relationship is having local knowledge and combining that with technical expertise and efficiency; that’s exactly the type of partnership Clear Skies and Aspen Energy are bringing to the Greek solar industry,” said Clear Skies Solar Chairman and CEO, Ezra Green. “There’s no question, Greece is one of the most progressive ‘solar-minded’ countries today. Their current environment of available grants and favorable feed-in tariffs, presented a great opportunity for Clear Skies. We fully expect that this 150kW contract will be the first of many great solar energy opportunities in the region.”
This contract covers a 150kW project which will consist of a ground mounted system covering approximately 1-acre and is expected to generate approximately 180,000 kW hours of electricity per year. It will prevent 176,000 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions per year and, with financing pre-arranged, the anticipated start date is early October pending final permitting.

Mantra Venture Group Announces Entry into an Agreement in Principle for a Cellulosic Ethanol Joint Venture
Mantra Venture Group Announces Entry into an Agreement in Principle for a Cellulosic Ethanol Joint Venture
SEATTLE, WA, Aug. 4 - Mantra Venture Group Ltd. (OTCBB: MVTG - FSE: 5MV) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement in principle for a joint venture agreement with Northwind Ethanol Ltd. ("Northwind") to produce fuel ethanol using their proprietary starch and cellulose technology. The final agreement is undergoing final review by Mantra and Northwind's legal counsel. The joint venture will be carried out through Mantra's wholly-owned subsidiary, Mantra NextGen Power Inc. ("NextGen"). According to the terms of the joint venture agreement, Mantra will own 51% of NextGen and Northwind will own 49%.
NextGen has also acquired the exclusive North American license from Northwind to produce cellulosic ethanol, ethanol derived from wood and agricultural wastes, using an exclusive proprietary technology. This technology promises to be much more economic, practical and clean, than ethanol from conventional corn processing. NextGen also has the right to purchase additional worldwide licenses at an additional cost. This high efficiency, low energy demand process will reduce ethanol production costs by more than 1/3.
NextGen's management team and Board of Directors has also been implemented, with Larry Kristof of Mantra to act as President, Fred Enga of Northwind will act as C.E.O., Dennis Petke of Mantra will act as Secretary and Brian Currie of Northwind to act as Treasurer and C.F.O. These four gentlemen will also serve on NextGen's Board of Directors, with a fifth director to be chosen by mutual consent of Mantra and Northwind. Now that the management of NextGen is in place, they will focus their attention on raising capital in order to finance NextGen's first plant.
Fred Enga, Northwind's President and C.E.O., commented, "Our two companies have finalized the deal that will see cellulosic ethanol come to commercialization. This will allow NextGen to bring this new, exciting, clean technology to the marketplace."
Larry Kristof, Mantra's President and C.E.O. added, "This joint venture is an important step for both NextGen and Mantra. Ethanol produced from a source other than corn, an important food staple, is in high demand. NextGen is poised to meet that high demand and enter this burgeoning market very quickly - we hope to break ground on our first 20 million gallon per year plant by the end of this year."
About Mantra:
Mantra, through its group of sustainable energy, carbon reduction and consumer product subsidiaries, is active in the green technology marketplace with an innovative, multi-faceted approach focused on profitability through sustainability. By aggressively seeking out new technologies and innovating solutions for a cleaner earth for everyone, Mantra intends to provide a highly profitable, socially and environmentally responsible investment for its shareholders.

Montana Governor Plugs ZAP Electric Truck for State
Montana Governor Plugs ZAP Electric Truck for State
HELENA, MT - Aug 1, 2008 -- Montana officials announced that a city-speed electric truck from California manufacturer ZAP (OTCBB: ZAAP) has been purchased by the Montana State Hospital at Warm Springs.
"Interest is coming from everywhere for the Xebra, even places you wouldn't expect like the Big Sky state where people are just as concerned about high gas prices," said ZAP CEO Steve Schneider. Schneider noted that the front page of yesterday's Wall Street Journal had a feature on Texans parking their big gas trucks and driving the Xebra.
The hospital hopes the ZAP Xebra will cut its fuel bill for mail deliveries and other on-campus errands. However, hospital officials purchased the truck as part of Governor Brian Schweitzer's 20X10 Initiative, which asks state agencies to reduce their fuel consumption by 20 percent by the year 2010.
"Even after counting emissions from electric generating plants, Xebras produce 98 percent fewer pollutants than gas cars," a hospital news release said. "The approximate cost to operate the vehicle is 1 to 3 cents per mile."
Governor Schweitzer checked out the ZAP electric truck for the first time during the July 4th parade in Butte.
"He thought it was great," said Michael Curnow, Owner of Prestige Auto. "He had seen other electric cars before but it was the first time he had seen a Xebra and thought it was neat. I'm grateful for the Governor's initiative and that the State of Montana is stepping up to use more electric vehicles."
The ZAP Xebra truck, which seats two people, can travel up to 40 miles an hour and has a range up to 40 miles depending on battery usage and varying driving conditions. The rechargeable batteries can be plugged into a standard 110-volt AC outlet like a cell phone.
"We have a lot of packages and we're moving charts and stuff back and forth," hospital spokeswoman Tracy Thun told the Montana Standard. "Some of our deliveries from our warehouse we'll be able to put in there."
The truck will be delivered Monday by Prestige Auto & Toppers in Butte, which is the only authorized dealer of ZAP electric vehicles in the Montana. Prestige Auto and Toppers is located at 1701 Harrison in Butte, MT 59701. Reach them by phone at 406-782-9102.

ZAP is positioning its business plan at the forefront of fuel-efficient transportation with new technologies including energy efficient gas systems, electric, hybrid and other innovative power systems.

Ludlow Energy Ventures Initiates Research Coverage on Essential Innovations Technology Corp.
Ludlow Energy Ventures Initiates Research Coverage on Essential Innovations Technology Corp.
BELLINGHAM, Wash., July 31 - Essential Innovations Technology Corp. (OTCBB: ESIV) the "Company" announced today that Ludlow Energy Ventures, Inc has initiated research coverage of Essential, with a 'speculative' B+ rating.
COVERAGE SUMMARY
Mark Blackwell, Research Analyst with Ludlow Energy Ventures commented, "Although Essential Innovations Technology only has a market cap of $1.44 million and incurred a net loss of $1,107,557 last quarter, a large amount of that recorded loss was non-cash, and in fact the company has shown a strong and sustained stream of revenue, it has redefined its efforts to focus almost entirely on manufacturing activities and in that regards it is now pursuing the establishment of a quality JV partnership in Vietnam to increase such manufacturing capacity. This joint venture when finalized should give the company an extreme competitive advantage as it will provide for the significant reduction of labor and material costs while geographically positioning the Company to take full advantage of unique distribution channels available to it throughout much of the Asian marketplace.
"If the company moves forward and continues to secure on-going private placement equity as it has in the past, I am extremely confident that the management team of Essential will allocate the resources effectively to execute on the company's strategy of increasing revenue and growth from the manufacturing division.
"In my opinion, the stock is heavily undervalued, and when compared to competitors on the market it has a strong competitive advantage that will allow the company to grow and differentiate itself against competitors. Furthermore, when looking at the two major players in this distinctive market, LSB Industries ("ClimateMaster") and WaterFurnace Renewable Energy Inc. ("WaterFurnace"), these two companies are trading at a multiplier of 30 - 35 times EPS.
"Thus, Ludlow Energy Ventures has commenced research coverage on ESIV, with a 'speculative' B+ rating, pending that the company is able to move forward with the manufacturing facility in the Vietnam."

Akeena Solar Helps Livermore Achieve 117 kW of Renewable Solar PowerTeams With Pleasanton to Bring Popular Community-Based Solar Adoption Program
Akeena Solar Helps Livermore Achieve 117 kW of Renewable Solar PowerTeams With Pleasanton to Bring Popular Community-Based Solar Adoption Program
LOS GATOS, Calif., Aug. 1, 2008 -- After a successful eight week community program, Akeena Solar (NasdaqCM:AKNS - News), one of the United States' leading solar installers and a preferred solar Installer for Livermore, today announced nearly 30 new homeowners have signed up to go solar. Together, the systems will generate 117 kW of solar electricity and will offset about 280,753 pounds of carbon dioxide a year -- the equivalent of removing 23 cars off the road each year for 30 years. Based on the program's success, the installer will launch another community program in neighboring Pleasanton to help more Tri-Valley homeowners go solar. The programs will assist neighborhoods take action and make solar energy a reality for families dealing with ever-rising energy costs.
``Watching other communities take action in California inspired us to start our own program -- and with electricity bills skyrocketing and the future of tax credits and rebates questionable, switching to clean, affordable solar power seemed obvious,'' said Sue Koopman, a Livermore resident whose 2.7 kW system installation was recently completed. ``But more importantly, it feels like we are making a difference by purchasing energy that uses the sun, which we have plenty of here in Livermore, and encouraging development of future renewable energy sources.''
Started in June and running through July 31, the program provided all homeowners with a community discount in addition to the normal state and federal incentives offered to solar customers. With program discounts, incentives and financing options offered through the Akeena program, Livermore residents can get solar energy at a monthly cost lower than their monthly PG&E bill.
After an exhaustive search to find quality installers, the Livermore Community Program named Akeena Solar a preferred installer for the program. Livermore was especially drawn to Akeena because of its years of experience in residential solar installations and the high quality of its award-winning Andalay solar system. Akeena then educated residents through seminars and worked with homeowners to determine the suitability of their roof for solar, available rebates and how to get started.
``By bringing a community together to go solar, we can educate homeowners one neighborhood at a time and provide them with an extra financial incentive to switch to clean, renewable energy,'' said Steve Daniel, executive vice president of Akeena Solar. ``We are committed to helping city and community programs like Livermore's reach their solar goals, and are excited to replicate the success of this program in neighboring Pleasanton.''
The Pleasanton program will kick off August 2 with Akeena Solar hosting the first of several educational seminars at the Pleasanton Senior Center located at 5353 Sunol Boulevard, from 10 am to 11 am. Pleasanton residents can expect the same generous rebates, with an additional $500 discount if they sign up by August 31. Interested homeowners may visit http://www.gosolarpleasanton.com to learn more.
About Akeena Solar, Inc.
Founded in 2001, Akeena Solar's philosophy is simple: We believe producing clean electricity directly from the sun is the right thing to do for our environment and economy. Akeena Solar has grown to become one of the largest national installers of residential and commercial solar power systems in the United States.
