2010 revenues to be in the range of $76.5 million to $85 million, representing a 43% to 59% increase from $53.5 million in fiscal 2009
Jiangsu Province, China, ( http://www.investorideas.com/ renewable energy/green newswire ) -- China Wind Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: CWS), a leading supplier of forged rolled rings and other forged components to the wind power and other industries and industrial equipment primarily to the textile industry in China, today announced guidance for fiscal year 2010.
The Company expects 2010 revenues to be in the range of $76.5 million to $85 million, representing a 43% to 59% increase from $53.5 million in fiscal 2009. Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization, which is generally referred to as EBITDA and is a non-GAAP financial measure, is expected to be in the range of $22.7 million to $25.2 million, representing a 106% to 129% increase compared to $11.0 million in fiscal 2009. Adjusted net income, which excludes non-cash expenses related to convertible securities and warrants, is anticipated to be between $15.5 million and $16.3 million, representing an increase between 99% and 109%, compared to $7.8 million in fiscal 2009.
The Company anticipates stronger demand for both its traditional forged products and ESR forged products in 2010, as management expects stronger sales of precision forged products used in large wind turbines. The Company anticipates revenue contributed by its wind industry segment will increase by approximately 75%. In addition, the Company expects its dye machine segment to recover in 2010, given the industry's recovery in early 2010.
"We are pleased to see a healthy flow of customer orders in early 2010," commented Mr. Jianhua Wu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

The results, from research commissioned by Purfresh and conducted by The National Food Lab, demonstrated that controlled supplementation of ozone, an active form of oxygen, into transportation container conditions was able to kill and control the spread of important foodborne pathogens such as Salmonella, by more than 99.997%, Listeria monocytogenes, by more than 99.999%, and E. coli O157:H7, by as much as 99.9%. These results were on both actual fruit and container surface coupons and poignantly represent the efficacy of using ozone during transport—which is often the longest segment of the food supply chain—to actively reduce food safety risks.
“Countless studies have proven ozone controls bacteria, molds, yeast, viruses, and ethylene. I believe this study was unique because it showed that ozone is also highly effective at killing harmful bacteria in conditions similar to those found in refrigerated shipping containers”
.“Countless studies have proven ozone controls bacteria, molds, yeast, viruses, and ethylene. I believe this study was unique because it showed that ozone is also highly effective at killing harmful bacteria in conditions similar to those found in refrigerated shipping containers,” said Dee M. Graham, Ph.D., president of R and D Enterprises.
An estimated 70 million tons of perishables were transported in refrigerated containers last year. During transport, with transit times ranging from 7 to 50 days, harmful microorganisms can multiply rapidly putting the food at great risk for contamination and spoilage. Purfresh uniquely addresses these risks with their ozone-based Purfresh® Transport solution, an active cargo protection system that has been scientifically engineered to use ozone—a natural, residue-free form of oxygen—to control ripening, reduce decay, and enhance the safety of fresh produce during transport, leading to safer, fresher food.
“Given the continued expansion of the global food market and the ever-increasing reports of food related illnesses, it is exciting and encouraging to see innovative companies like Purfresh applying sound science and commercially viable solutions to this important industry challenge,” said Paul A. Hall, Ph.D., president of AIV Microbiology and Food Safety Consultants, LLC. “And I believe they really hit a home run with their transport solution by providing a way to enhance food safety as well as maintain the quality and value of fresh produce being shipped around the world without the dependency of many harsh, traditional chemicals that are rapidly falling out of favor in the world’s markets.”
“At Purfresh we are focused on meeting the needs of the global food industry by providing innovative solutions that are science-based, easy to use, and integrate with existing processes and infrastructure,” said David Cope, president and CEO of Purfresh, Inc. “Unmatched by any other cargo protection system in the industry, our Purfresh Transport solution uniquely takes advantage of the clean, powerful properties of active forms of oxygen to help extend shelf life, minimize losses, maintain quality, and enhance the safety of fresh produce all the way to market.”
Available for use on new and existing refrigerated shipping containers, the patent-pending Purfresh Transport system simply “snaps” into a fan port to integrate with the container’s refrigeration system. Leveraging the existing air flow system, the Purfresh Transport technology delivers precise, low-dose levels of ozone throughout the container—treating the air and surfaces to reduce harmful microorganisms that may lead to both disease and decay. The system actively monitors and adjusts the required ozone levels throughout the voyage based on changes in the condition of the cargo or the atmosphere. Purfresh Transport is available through most major ocean carriers and is offered on as a per-trip service.
Committed to promoting food safety throughout the food supply chain, Purfresh also offers two additional ozone-based solutions—Purfresh Cold Storage for preserving the freshness and safety of produce during storage for warehouses and distribution centers, and Purfresh Wash, a produce disinfection wash system that helps packers and processors meet HACCP requirements while reducing chemical use.
Purfresh solutions are sold throughout the world by Purfresh and its network of certified resellers.

CITI (NYSE : C) JOINS UNITED NATIONS GLOBAL COMPACT
CITI (NYSE : C)JOINS UNITED NATIONS GLOBAL COMPACT
Confirms Citi’s Long-Standing Commitment to Human Rights, Non-Discriminatory Employment, Environmental Responsibility and Anti-Corruption
As First Major U.S. Bank to Sign Accord, Citi Joins Thousands of Members Globally
For Immediate Release
Citigroup Inc. (NYSE symbol: C)
May 10, 2010 ( Investorideas.com renewable energy/green newswire ) New York – Citi today announced that it had signed on to the United Nations Global Compact, the world's largest corporate citizenship initiative. Citi is the first major U.S.-based bank to sign onto the Global Compact.
“I am pleased to confirm that Citi supports the 10 principles of the Global Compact with respect to human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption,” said CEO Vikram Pandit in his letter to Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon of the United Nations. "We are committed to making the Global Compact and its principles part of the strategy and culture of our company, and to engage in projects which advance the broader development goals of the United Nations.”
Implementation of the UN Global Compact relies on public accountability and disclosure of its participants through an annual “Communication on Progress.” This aligns strongly with Citi’s commitment to transparency, as evidenced by the company’s annual Global Citizenship Report (found at citizenship.citigroup.com).
Citi’s announcement builds on a long track record of developing leading environmental, social, and corporate governance initiatives, including:
- Being a key bank in the development of the 2003 Equator Principles, a voluntary set of industry guidelines to manage the environmental and social risks of project financing globally. In 2010, Citi was elected Chair of the Equator Principles Steering Committee. Additionally, Citi’s broader Environmental and Social Risk Management (ESRM) policy incorporates many of the environmental, social, labor and human rights safeguards promoted by the Global Compact;
- The launch in 2005 of Citi Microfinance which now counts as its clients and partners more than 100 microfinance institutions in over 40 countries. Citi was one of the early signatories of The Client Protection Principles in Microfinance which ensure that providers of financial services to low-income populations take concrete steps to protect their clients from potentially harmful financial products and ensure that they are treated fairly;
- The establishment of a strong diversity network program for employees, including 54 different networks such as those for women, people with disabilities, multicultural heritage, and LGBT pride networks; and
- Since its founding in 2000, Citi has been a member of the Wolfsberg Group and has strongly supported the Group's 2007 Statement against Corruption and other international efforts to combat the use of financial systems for bribery and corrupt activity.

Publicly Traded Electric Vehicle and Natural Gas Companies Working on a Cleaner Port of Los Angeles
Publicly Traded Electric Vehicle and Natural Gas Companies Working on a Cleaner Port of Los Angeles
BYD Auto (BYD Company: HKG: 1211), Balqon Corporation (OTCBB: BLQN), Westport Innovations Inc. (TSX: WPT/ NASDAQ:WPRT) Showcase Green Auto Technology
Point Roberts WA/ Los Angeles CA- May 10, 2010 - www.InvestorIdeas.com reports on publicly traded electric Vehicle ( EV) and natural gas companies that are participating in the greening of the Port of Los Angeles. Players including BYD Auto (BYD Company: HKG: 1211), Balqon Corporation (OTCBB: BLQN), Westport Innovations Inc. (TSX:WPT; NASDAQ:WPRT) and Vision Industries Corp. (OTCBB: VIIC) all have a stake in the future of the Port, but for the companies involved, it represents just a fraction of their vision for a global green automotive market.
On May 4th the Port of Los Angeles announced plans to become the world’s first port to offer a reduced tariff for zero-emission vehicles imported into the United States through the Port. The reduced-fee incentive proposal was announced Friday, April 30, as Chinese manufacturer BYD Auto Company Limited (BYD) said it will locate its North American headquarters in Los Angeles and use the Port of Los Angeles to import its vehicles.
BYD Auto is a Chinese automobile manufacturer based in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, China, established in 2003 and is a wholly owned subsidiary of BYD Company, listed on the Hong Kong Exchange (BYD Company: HKG:1211).
Another publicly traded EV company at the Port is Balqon Corporation (OTCBB: BLQN), a company that produces heavy duty electric trucks, tractors and electric drive systems.
As of November, Balqon Corporation (OTCBB: BLQN) had delivered 12 Nautilus E20s to the City of Los Angeles and one Nautilus E20 to the AQMD. All of the Nautilus E20s were delivered during the third quarter of 2009 were equipped with lithium-ion battery packs.
The company anticipates that future sales of the heavy-duty electric vehicles will be made directly to end users, such as large terminal operators, shipping companies and OEMs, rather than directly to governmental agencies such as the AQMD and the City of Los Angeles.
Westport Innovations Inc. (TSX:WPT; NASDAQ:WPRT), a provider of natural gas engines, in its April 2010 investor presentation, updates LNG clean truck program deals with the Port of Los Angeles and the Port of Long Beach. “Despite economic turmoil, over 500 LNG trucks have been deployed to date, the infrastructure is in place and the feedback from the fleets is excellent. “
http://www.westport.com/pdf/2010-04-12_Westport_Securities_Presentation.pdf
According to the Port of Los Angeles, since its commencement on October 1, 2008, the Clean Truck Program (CTP) has delivered an estimated more than 70-percent reduction in the rate of truck emissions compared to 2007 average air emissions data.
On April 5th the Port of Los Angeles announced it awarded Vision Industries Corp. (OTCBB: VIIC), producers of the zero emission electric/hydrogen hybrid Tyrano™ truck, a purchase order for a zero emission Class 8 hybrid electric truck. The cost to purchase the zero emission truck will not exceed $280,000 including sales tax.
Electric vehicle companies and green auto companies that can demonstrate successful deployment are fighting for global market share. Investors are encouraged to perform due diligence in researching and investing in the sector.

The Port of Los Angeles and Balqon Corp were showing off their first production XE20 electric, zero-emission yard tractors on Wednesday at an all-day Ride and Drive event at Berth 87. Balqon is getting ready to deliver 20 of the new heavy-duty trucks to a container terminal for a real-world debut.
The port ordered the lithium-ion battery-powered vehicles to be built almost a year ago, along with five XE30 trucks designed for short-haul, on-road drayage. The XE30s will be used to shuttle containers from the port to a near-dock rail yard about five miles north of the harbor.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
Our Business
We are a leading provider of fully-integrated clean energy management solutions in China utilizing ground source heat pump, or GSHP, technologies. We offer integrated energy management solutions for buildings primarily through energy management contracts, or EMCs, by designing, manufacturing and installing GSHP heating, ventilation, air conditioning and hot water supply systems, or GSHP systems, as well as providing post-installation maintenance services typically over 10 to 20 years. We believe our fully-integrated solutions typically can save 50% to 70% of energy consumption compared to conventional fuel- and electricity-based heating, ventilation, air conditioning and hot water systems, based on data from three EMC projects installed by us and which have been in operation for over a year.
Our GSHP solutions utilize renewable energy stored beneath the earth’s surface, thereby significantly reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions as compared to conventional fuel- and electricity-based heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems, or HVAC systems. Our systems are based on our proprietary control software and system architecture which we believe differentiate our solutions from those offered by our competitors. As a result, we are able to replace the conventional HVAC systems in a wide variety of existing buildings without causing business interruptions, allowing us to become an early mover to address China’s substantial building retrofit market, which we believe many of our competitors are unable to address.
Under the EMC model, we provide upfront design, procurement, manufacturing and installation of the GSHP systems and long-term maintenance services to our customers. Our customers pay for our solutions in the form of fixed or variable monthly fees, or the energy management fees, over the period of the contract, which is typically lower than their actual or projected energy costs for operating conventional HVAC systems. We are responsible for all costs incurred in connection with the design, procurement, manufacturing and installation of the GSHP systems. We are also typically responsible for all or substantially all of the electricity costs for operating the GSHP systems as well as maintenance costs over the contract period after the completion of installation. We believe our EMC model is highly appealing to our customers as it allows customers to pay for the GSHP systems over the contract term and eliminates the initial procurement cost for the GSHP systems. In addition, the EMC model provides us with long-term recurring cash flows over the contract period. We also derive revenues from the design, sales and installation of GSHP systems without post-installation maintenance services, which we refer to as the engineering, procurement and construction model, or the EPC model.
We commenced operations in June 2007, initially using GSHP modules sourced from a European manufacturer. In the fourth quarter of 2009, we began manufacturing our own modules in our facilities located in Gongqing City, Jiangxi Province, or the Jiangxi facility. We design our modules to address the specific needs of the Chinese market. We believe we are well positioned to offer our customers greater functionality in a cost-effective manner using our own modules.
As of March 31, 2010, we had entered into 16 EMCs, covering gross floor areas, or GFAs, of 964,501 square meters. Our cumulative installed GFAs as of March 31, 2010, representing the GFAs of buildings where we had completed installation work and prorated GFAs of partially installed buildings, were 410,278 square meters.
We have experienced significant growth in our business since we commenced operations. Our total revenues increased from RMB3.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 to RMB39.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2008 and to RMB165.2 million (US$24.2 million) for the year ended December 31, 2009. Our total revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 were RMB69.0 million (US$10.1 million), compared to total

Google's Go's Green with Wind Turbine Investment
Google's Go's Green with Wind Turbine Investment
By Jack Lundee
5.04.2010 - Google- (NasdaqGS: GOOG)) ( Investorideas.com renewable energy/green newswire ) Emission reduction, green spaces, and renewable energy are some of the most talked about topics of the 21st century. With the recent passing of Earth Day, and the undying rally for improved green efforts worldwide, some industry giants are making a large footprint.
Oddly enough, it isn't the work of highly regarded green organizations (i.e. – Greenpeace and Global Green USA) that's capturing everybody's attention, but surprisingly enough extremely large technology companies, like Google for instance. Recently, Google stated that it had invested $38.8 million in two North Dakota wind farms [1]. – "On Friday we made our first direct investment in a utility-scale renewable energy project — two wind farms that generate 169.5 megawatts of power, enough to power more than 55,000 homes." Rick Needeham, (Google's Green Business Operations Manager), wrote within that Google is greatly interested in discovering new opportunities to invest in renewable energy projects that really ”push the envelope."
It wasn't enough for Google to be the world's biggest search and advertising company; it's evident that they truly do want to power the globe. Although, this isn't the first time that Google has made a large investment in green energy. Back in 2007, Google dove into clean-tech fray, clearly stating that it would spend "hundreds of millions of dollars" to create alternative energy sources that are cheaper than coal, which as we know it is the world's dominant fuel source and pollutant. They included that their effort RECTC (Renewable Energy Cheaper Than Coal), would consist of wind power technologies, solar power, and more.
It's sometimes tough to make the connection between search and alternative energy, but with Google at the forefront of campaigns like this, it certainly makes me feel a bit more comfortable. With enough energy to power nearly 55,000 homes, Google is making a tremendous impact on sustainability for our planet. Non-profits and other similar collaborative units have been doing their part in supporting green initiatives since the beginning of the movement. For instance, Niranjan Shah and Globetrotters Engineering Corporation work closely with the USGBC (US Green Building Council) to improve building standards and provide LEED based architecture. Although, it's the unpredictable, long tail efforts of cash cows like Google that are helping substantially. Much like the individual, businesses must play their roles in promoting sustainability.
Google entered into green technology development in startup companies and its own consumer energy tracking tools, although, they hadn't quite moved into actual working energy fabrication. This could infer future investments by Google, perhaps leading to the acquisition of their own wind powered turbine that would facilitate their own business needs.

Renewable Energy News; GAMA, GE (NYSE: GE) Launch Their First Wind Projects in Turkey
Renewable Energy News; GAMA, GE (NYSE: GE) Launch Their First Wind Projects in Turkey
ANKARA, Turkey--(http://www.investorideas.com/ renewable energy/green newswire )--GAMA Energy A.S., a joint venture between GAMA Holding A.S. and GE (NYSE:GE) unit GE Energy Financial Services, today announced their first wind energy projects in Turkey, the 22.5-megawatt Sares and 10-megawatt Karadag wind farms in the country’s western region. The projects, costing a total €54 million, feature GE’s 2.5-megawatt wind turbines.
“This investment demonstrates Gama Energy’s ability to develop and execute high-quality energy projects”
.GAMA Energy, based in Ankara, is developing and investing in the projects while TSKB, the Industrial Development Bank of Turkey, is arranging and leading €44 million in debt financing. Additional details of the financial transactions were not disclosed. GE Energy is supplying 13 turbines and will operate and maintain them under a services agreement.
The projects’ power will be sold to the merchant market or will benefit from the Turkish regulated feed-in tariff. Construction of the Sares wind farm begins next week and is expected to be completed by the end of this year. Construction of the Karadag project is planned to begin later this year, with completion during the first quarter of 2011.
According to GAMA Energy’s estimates, the wind farms are expected to generate enough electricity to power approximately 59,000 average Turkish homes and avoid approximately 80,000 tons a year in greenhouse gas emissions.
GAMA Energy Managing Director and Board Member M. Arif Ozozan said: “Such wind projects as the ones we are launching today not only support a cleaner environment but create employment opportunities, support our company’s growth objectives and help Turkey achieve its renewable energy goals.”
“These projects represent the growth of our productive partnership with GE as well as our commitment to investing in Turkey’s growing energy sector,” said Hakan Ozman of GAMA Holding A.S.
“This investment demonstrates Gama Energy’s ability to develop and execute high-quality energy projects,” said Andrew Marsden, managing director of Europe at GE Energy Financial Services. “In addition, this investment is in line with GE’s ecomagination program to help customers meet their environmental challenges, and it contributes to our global growth.”
Turkey’s Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources aims to generate 20 percent of its electricity production from renewable resources by 2020. In wind energy, the country has developed just 600 megawatts of an estimated potential 88 gigawatts. “GE Energy Financial Services sees Turkey as an exciting renewable energy market with great prospects if government regulations and tariffs are set appropriately,” Marsden said.
