Cleantech News; Establishing the Cleantech 20 by 2020: Cleantech Sector Key to Future Economic and Social Growth in Prairies
Cleantech News; Establishing the Cleantech 20 by 2020: Cleantech Sector Key to Future Economic and Social Growth in Prairies
2010 SDTC Cleantech Growth and Go-To-Market Report-Prairie Edition launched today
REGINA, SASKATCHEWAN--(http://www.investorideas.com/ clean energy stocks blog ) - Sept. 23, 2010) - Emerging clean technology companies are on the cusp of providing an economic, social, and environmental boost to Canada's Prairie Provinces.
Currently, more than 100 clean technology companies are in the process of commercializing new products across Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. The report demonstrates that the Canadian clean tech industry was very resilient during the recession – between 2007 and 2009, the overall compound annual growth rate was 47% and growth was seen in both the high-growth and more established sectors.
Nearly three quarters of the prairies' clean technology companies were created as a result of a concept developed by an entrepreneur. In contrast, only nine percent of these companies were created as a result of technology developed through academic institutions, be it licensed or by the entrepreneur as an academic.
The Prairie edition of Canada's first-ever comprehensive report on the clean technology industry, 2010 SDTC Cleantech Growth and Go-To-Market Report , launched today, also found that sixty-four percent of the 106 cleantech companies in the prairies are technology product companies, thirty-two percent are technology-enabled service companies, and four percent are large-scale and distributed processing companies.
"This is a very exciting report because it gives emerging cleantech companies, organizations assisting these companies, and governments, the information we need to know to enhance the growth of this important industry," said Susan Gorges, CEO of SpringBoard West Innovations. "The information in the report will be a significant help to us as we create and enhance services to meet the needs of local cleantech entrepreneurs."
The report includes input from 168 Canadian cleantech companies including 28 from the Prairies. It looks at the state of the clean technology industry, with the intent of helping to build a globally competitive cleantech industry in Canada. The report also examines factors impacting investment in commercialization, which plays a key role in company growth.
"The Canadian cleantech industry has plenty of potential to build globally-competitive companies," said Céline Bak, Partner with the Russell Mitchell Group. "But, being global technology leaders is that much harder when early adopter markets are far from home. A thriving Canadian cleantech industry depends on more than just technological innovation; we will need to build strong domestic markets while at the same time, investing in world-class commercialization for customers at home and abroad."
Based on the survey and research findings, the 2010 SDTC Cleantech Growth and Go-To-Market Report proposes a plan that will enable Canada to have developed twenty cleantech companies that have achieved $100 million in annual revenues by the year 2020. The plan provides a list of recommendations including:
Investing in best practices and benchmarks for investment in commercialization as a driver of revenue growth
Ensuring emerging cleantech companies are able to access investment capital
Taxation changes that encourage investment in Canada's cleantech industry;
Policies to stimulate green procurement by large organizations and governments;
Deployment of financing vehicles, such as flow-through shares and debt products for technology-based companies, to address the gap between supply and demand for growth capital.
Regulation of greenhouse gases, which is one of the most important drivers for clean technology adoption worldwide.
While the report found that cleantech industries continue to require assistance in accessing capital, it also found that the investment required by companies in this industry is less than might be anticipated – 96% of the companies surveyed were found to have capital requirements of between $1million and $30 million.
"As clean technology is being integrated into virtually every sector of Canada's economy, it is essential that we identify the opportunities they create," said Vicky Sharpe, President and CEO of Sustainable Development Technology Canada (SDTC). "This report will be a great tool for the industry and for all levels of government to better understand the current state of the cleantech sector in the Prairies so that the region can take full advantage of these opportunities."
The Report, which is available in 5 editions (National, BC, Prairies, Ontario and Quebec), was produced by the Russell Mitchell Group in partnership with six provinces and five federal departments. It was sponsored by title sponsor SDTC, Industry Sponsor OMERS, presenting sponsor OCETA as well as BC Hydro, Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC), C3E, Cenovus, Export Development Canada (EDC), Encana, Lixar, Ogilvy Renault, RBC and the Stonewood Group.
It is complemented by an on-line database containing 436 companies with a view to making the industry more readily accessible to company managers, investors, procurers and government officials. The database can be found at www.cleantechnologyreport2010.ca

Solar Stocks ; Sustainable Energy (TSX VENTURE:STG) Appoints Solar Industry Veteran to Sales & Marketing Post
Solar Stocks ; Sustainable Energy (TSX VENTURE:STG) Appoints Solar Industry Veteran to Sales & Marketing Post
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(http://www.investorideas.com/ clean energy stocks ) - Sept. 23, 2010) - Sustainable Energy Technologies Ltd (TSX VENTURE:STG) ("Sustainable Energy" or the "Company") has appointed Axel Hartung as Chief Sales & Marketing Officer effective immediately. In this role Axel will be responsible for leading Sustainable Energy's sales strategies in North America and Europe.
Axel is a seasoned marketing and sales professional with more than 7 years experience in the solar industry first with German industry giant Diehl AKO where he was Manager of Business Development and latterly with Sustainable Energy, where he was responsible for European sales and marketing.
Commenting on his appointment Michael Carten CEO said: "Axel is the perfect fit to lead our sales and marketing effort. I know of no other person who has his experience with the evolution of the solar inverter industry and the changing dynamics of the competitive landscape. At Diehl, Axel was responsible for developing the successful marketing strategy for that company's "Platinum" line of solar inverters and has successfully rolled out our PARALEX business model in Europe. Axel's experience in Europe will be an enormous advantage to us in North America and Ontario."
Axel will continue to be based in Germany, which still represents the world's largest solar PV market, and will divide his time between North American and Europe.
"This is an exciting time for the Company and I am very pleased to be able to take on this role," said Axel. Power inverters are now driving change as the industry realizes that more gains in cost and efficiency can be achieved from better system design than from individual component efficiencies. The parallel system architecture may be the single most disruptive factor in the industry today improving system yields, reducing the cost of ownership and changing distribution patterns.
"Sustainable is the only company which can deliver this value in higher power ratings and at a cost that is competitive with conventional inverters."
Since introducing the SUNERGYTM product line in May, 2010, Sustainable Energy has quickly gained momentum in the Ontario market for the design flexibility, safety, and high yield advantages which can only be achieved with the SUNERGYTM inverter. Since May 2010, the Company has built a pipeline for Ontario and the US to the end of June 2011 of approximately 22.5 MW; and it is adding to that weekly. The pipeline represents a judgment by management based on forecasts from qualified accounts weighted to reflect the probability of sales within the time frame and is used by the Company to plan production.
SUNERGYTM product sales revenues for this period will depend on the product mix, which includes SUNERGYTM inverters components of the DC side balance of system ("BOS") - communications cards and combiners - which can increase the value of each unit sale by up to 20% – 30%. The Company also sells monitoring systems for each inverter which can range up to $800 per unit. Total revenues for this period will also be dependent on the percentage of unit sales that is for PARALEXTM systems – which include all solar panels along with the inverter and DC side BOS peripherals – in both thin film and crystalline configurations.
Whereas the Company believes product pricing for the SUNERGYTM inverter together with DC side BOS peripherals will average in the $420,000 – $600,000 per MW range depending on volumes and product mix, PARALEXTM pricing in Ontario will likely range from $2.5 - $3 million per MW. The Ontario market is still immature, and the Company is unable to provide any guidance on product mix or on the division between SUNERGYTM package sales and PARALEXTM sales.
Within Europe, the Company has established two private label relationships: Salicru S.A which exclusive for Spain and Portugal; and ChangeTec GmbH which is non-exclusive for Germany. It has also begun successfully marketing higher value PARALEXTM solutions (modules panels, inverters and DC balance of systems) directly to systems aggregators and project developers for rooftop and smaller ground based projects. In Europe PARALEX revenues per unit sale vary much more widely since the Company often provides racking in addition to DC side BOS modules and inverters.
About Sustainable Energy: Sustainable Energy www.sustainableenergy.com designs, manufactures and distributes power inverters for grid-connected solar PV systems. Advanced power inverters are a critical enabler of all modern solar PV power systems converting the direct current ("DC") power output of the solar PV modules into the high quality alternating current ("AC") power required by the power grid. Advanced power inverters also optimize the performance of the solar PV modules and maintain the integrity and safety of the interconnection with the power grid.
The extra low operating voltage (50v – 100v) of the SUNERGY ELV platform enables a system architecture that is inherently safe and that can be installed and maintained by most building trades without the need for PV specialists, significantly reducing the installed system cost and increasing investor yields. The SUNERGY inverter is rated for operating conditions ranging from minus 40 degrees Celsius to plus 50 degrees Celsius.

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(http://www.investorideas.com/ clean energy stocks ) - Sept. 23, 2010) - Sustainable Energy Technologies Ltd (TSX VENTURE:STG) ("Sustainable Energy" or the "Company") has appointed Axel Hartung as Chief Sales & Marketing Officer effective immediately. In this role Axel will be responsible for leading Sustainable Energy's sales strategies in North America and Europe.
Axel is a seasoned marketing and sales professional with more than 7 years experience in the solar industry first with German industry giant Diehl AKO where he was Manager of Business Development and latterly with Sustainable Energy, where he was responsible for European sales and marketing.
Commenting on his appointment Michael Carten CEO said: "Axel is the perfect fit to lead our sales and marketing effort. I know of no other person who has his experience with the evolution of the solar inverter industry and the changing dynamics of the competitive landscape. At Diehl, Axel was responsible for developing the successful marketing strategy for that company's "Platinum" line of solar inverters and has successfully rolled out our PARALEX business model in Europe. Axel's experience in Europe will be an enormous advantage to us in North America and Ontario."
Axel will continue to be based in Germany, which still represents the world's largest solar PV market, and will divide his time between North American and Europe.
"This is an exciting time for the Company and I am very pleased to be able to take on this role," said Axel. Power inverters are now driving change as the industry realizes that more gains in cost and efficiency can be achieved from better system design than from individual component efficiencies. The parallel system architecture may be the single most disruptive factor in the industry today improving system yields, reducing the cost of ownership and changing distribution patterns.
"Sustainable is the only company which can deliver this value in higher power ratings and at a cost that is competitive with conventional inverters."
Since introducing the SUNERGYTM product line in May, 2010, Sustainable Energy has quickly gained momentum in the Ontario market for the design flexibility, safety, and high yield advantages which can only be achieved with the SUNERGYTM inverter. Since May 2010, the Company has built a pipeline for Ontario and the US to the end of June 2011 of approximately 22.5 MW; and it is adding to that weekly. The pipeline represents a judgment by management based on forecasts from qualified accounts weighted to reflect the probability of sales within the time frame and is used by the Company to plan production.
SUNERGYTM product sales revenues for this period will depend on the product mix, which includes SUNERGYTM inverters components of the DC side balance of system ("BOS") - communications cards and combiners - which can increase the value of each unit sale by up to 20% – 30%. The Company also sells monitoring systems for each inverter which can range up to $800 per unit. Total revenues for this period will also be dependent on the percentage of unit sales that is for PARALEXTM systems – which include all solar panels along with the inverter and DC side BOS peripherals – in both thin film and crystalline configurations.
Whereas the Company believes product pricing for the SUNERGYTM inverter together with DC side BOS peripherals will average in the $420,000 – $600,000 per MW range depending on volumes and product mix, PARALEXTM pricing in Ontario will likely range from $2.5 - $3 million per MW. The Ontario market is still immature, and the Company is unable to provide any guidance on product mix or on the division between SUNERGYTM package sales and PARALEXTM sales.
Within Europe, the Company has established two private label relationships: Salicru S.A which exclusive for Spain and Portugal; and ChangeTec GmbH which is non-exclusive for Germany. It has also begun successfully marketing higher value PARALEXTM solutions (modules panels, inverters and DC balance of systems) directly to systems aggregators and project developers for rooftop and smaller ground based projects.

Wind Stocks; GE’s (NYSE: GE) Wind Turbines Cutting Diesel Generation, Energy Costs for Alaska’s Kodiak Island
Wind Stocks; GE’s Wind Turbines Cutting Diesel Generation, Energy Costs for Alaska’s Kodiak Island
A Year of Successful Operation Translates Into Nearly a Million Fewer Gallons of Diesel Fuel Used
SCHENECTADY, N.Y.--(http://www.investorideas.com/ clean energy stocks blog )--Wind turbines supplied by GE (NYSE: GE) are helping the city of Kodiak, on Kodiak Island off the southern coast of Alaska, reduce its use of diesel fuel and lower its energy costs while supporting the local utility’s vision to generate most of its power from renewable sources. The three GE 1.5-megawatt (MW) wind turbines were installed in 2009 by the Kodiak Electric Association (KEA), Kodiak Island’s electric utility, as a part of the Pillar Mountain Wind Project.
“The project is helping the community grow and hopefully will pave the way for future applications of our wind turbine technology in Alaska.”
.After a year of successful operation, GE’s wind turbines have enabled KEA to avoid the use of 930,000 gallons of diesel fuel. The three GE wind turbines for the Pillar Mountain project have a total capacity of 4.5 MW, which equals approximately 25 percent of KEA’s peak load demands. In addition, the wind turbines have supplied roughly 9 percent of annual system generation for the island in the year that they have been operating. Prior to the installation of the wind turbines, KEA relied on diesel generation to provide much of the island’s peaking power.
“The use of wind turbines is saving our customers money and reducing emissions by directly displacing much of our diesel generation,” said Darron Scott, president & CEO of KEA. “The Pillar Mountain Wind Project is a significant step toward our target to generate 95 percent of our power from renewable resources by 2020.”
“We were very pleased to work on this project, understanding how important it was to the residents of Kodiak Island to have their power generated from cleaner, renewable sources,” said Victor Abate, vice president-renewable energy for GE Power & Water. “The project is helping the community grow and hopefully will pave the way for future applications of our wind turbine technology in Alaska.”
Most of Kodiak Island is wilderness with only the eastern part of the island occupied by about 15,000 residents. The power grid is isolated with no external connections to other power sources. Prior to the installation of the wind turbines, all of the island’s power was provided by a two-unit hydroelectric plant and seven diesel generators.
GE wind turbines feature advanced controls and electronics, enabling these machines to meet grid codes and stay online supporting the grid even during severe disturbances. These grid-friendly features facilitated the application of such a high percentage of wind generation on KEA’s small, isolated grid. Because of the large percentage of wind generation on the KEA grid, studies are underway to examine high levels of wind penetration on smaller grids.
In addition to the supply of the wind turbines—the first megawatt-class machines to be installed in Alaska—GE also signed a two-year service agreement with KEA. Under this agreement, GE will perform routine maintenance of the wind turbines for two years while training KEA crews in maintenance practices.

MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(http://www.investorideas.com/ clean energy stocks blog ) - Sept. 23, 2010) - ProSep Inc. (TSX:PRP), dedicated to providing process solutions to the oil and gas industry, today announced that it ranked for a second consecutive year among the Deloitte Technology Fast 50™, a ranking of the 50 fastest growing technology companies in Canada, based on the percentage of revenue growth over five years. ProSep ranked seventh with a 10,203 percent revenue growth from 2005 to 2009. The Company also received for the third consecutive year, a Technology Green 15™ Award created in 2007 to showcase 15 Canadian companies that are leading the way to create major breakthroughs in the field of green technology.
For over 13 years, the Deloitte Technology Fast 50™ program has tracked the successful growth of Canadian-grown global leaders. Now Canada's pre-eminent technology award program, the Deloitte Technology Fast 50™ augments the broader Deloitte North American Technology Fast 500 initiative, with winners automatically eligible for this elite ranking.
"Canadian technology companies have demonstrated some very impressive growth numbers over the past year, amid the challenges of an uncertain global economic recovery," said John Ruffolo, National Leader, Technology, Media & Telecommunications Industry Group, Deloitte. "ProSep is an example of the determination, drive and skill that will serve to position them for further growth and success in the years to come."
"It is our employee's dedication and commitment to innovation that has allowed ProSep to break conventional boundaries and compete on a global scale," said Jacques L. Drouin, president and CEO. "In less than seven years our engineers developed an impressive portfolio of innovative solutions helping oil and gas producers around the world face growing environmental challenges, especially in the field of produced water."
To qualify for the Deloitte Technology Fast 50™ ranking, companies must have been in business for at least five years, have revenues of at least $5 million, be headquartered in Canada, own proprietary technology, and conduct research and development activities in Canada. A panel of industry experts evaluate and judge companies based on four key criteria: competitive advantage; size, growth, and market attractiveness; management effectiveness and organization; and financial performance.

About the Deloitte Technology Green 15™ – The Technology Green 15™ recognizes Canada's leading GreenTech companies.

It includes any technology that promotes a more efficient use and re-use of the earth's resources in industrial production and consumption. GreenTech products and services are designed to reduce or eliminate environmental impacts and improve operational performance, productivity, or efficiency while reducing costs, inputs, energy consumption, waste, or pollution.

Electric Car Stock News; ECOtality (NASDAQ:ECTY) Reveals EV Infrastructure Plan for Western Oregon
Electric Car Stock News; ECOtality (NASDAQ:ECTY) Reveals EV Infrastructure Plan for Western Oregon
More Than 1,000 Blink Charging Stations Will Charge up Electric Vehicles in Portland and Other Key Metropolitan Areas
PORTLAND, Ore.--(http://www.investorideas.com/ clean energy stocks blog )--ECOtality, Inc. (NASDAQ:ECTY), a leader in clean electric transportation and storage technologies, today unveiled its Blink electric vehicle charging station, as well as blueprints for electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure deployment in four major metropolitan areas in Northwestern Oregon: Portland, Salem, Corvallis and Eugene. The announcement marks the completion of a critical milestone in the planning process for The EV Project, the largest rollout of EV infrastructure in the world. As part of the project, ECOtality will install more than 1,100 publicly available chargers throughout the region.
“Throughout the EV Project, ECOtality is developing more calculated methods to prepare cities and regional areas for an EV infrastructure foundation”
.ECOtality worked closely with its Oregon Advisory Team and area stakeholders—including Pacificorp, the newest EV Project partner—to complete deployment guidelines and develop maps showing potential charging site locations and density. The maps were created using criteria developed during the Micro-Climate™ process, and take into consideration a variety of factors, including transportation routes, employment centers and zoning.
“I have long known that Oregon was the right state to launch this next generation of vehicles and show the rest of the country that we can make this transition without inconveniencing or pricing regular citizens out of this market,” said Governor Ted Kulongoski. “With today’s announcement, we are taking that next step forward toward making electric cars – and the supporting infrastructure – available, affordable and accessible to Oregonians across the state.”
“Today, Oregon is ready to emerge as a pioneer in electric vehicle adoption,” said Jonathan Read, President and CEO of ECOtality. “The support of our advisory group has provided invaluable research, and allowed us to develop a smart plan for the installation of EV infrastructure that suits the needs of Oregon’s future EV drivers. By coupling our plans with the capabilities of Blink, we are creating the rich charge infrastructure needed to make electric vehicles a reality.”
The four Oregon cities were selected as host sites for The EV Project in 2009, and will play a critical role in developing a rich charging infrastructure for EV drivers. ECOtality coordinated with the state to develop an advisory team, including representatives from state and local government agencies and utilities.
“Throughout the EV Project, ECOtality is developing more calculated methods to prepare cities and regional areas for an EV infrastructure foundation,” stated Don Karner, President of ECOtality North America. “With each blueprint ECOtality creates, we are able to move forward in paving the way for the national rollout of electric vehicles.”
ECOtality is the project manager for The EV Project, and is tasked with supervising the construction of the largest deployment of EV infrastructure to date. The $230 million public-private initiative is funded with a $114.8 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). The EV Project includes 16 states and major metropolitan areas, and will result in the installation of over 15,000 charging stations, over the course of three years.
The Oregon Advisory Team includes representatives from the Building Codes Division; City of Corvallis; City of Eugene; City of Gresham; City of Salem; Eugene Water & Electric Board; Oregon Department of Transportation; Oregon Business Development Department; Oregon Department of Energy; Oregon Transportation Research and Education Consortium; Pacific Power; Portland Development Commission; Portland General Electric; Salem Electric; and the University of Oregon.
About ECOtality, Inc.

Electric Car News; 64 Percent of Electric Vehicle Charge Points in the United States to be Residential Units, Says Pike Research
Electric Car News; 64 Percent of Electric Vehicle Charge Points in the United States to be Residential Units, Says Pike Research
BOULDER, Colo.--(http://www.investorideas.com/ clean energy stocks blog )--The adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) over the next several years will be accompanied by a significant buildout of EV charging infrastructure including public, private, workplace, and residential charging equipment. A recent report from Pike Research forecasts that a total of 4.7 million charge points will be installed globally during the period from 2010 to 2015, however the cleantech market intelligence firm expects that the mix of charging station types will vary significantly by region. Unique among EV markets, the United States will be led by residential charging units, which will represent 64% of the country’s 974,000 charge points to be installed by 2015.
“In Asia Pacific and Europe, where multi-family housing is more common, just 35% of charge points will be residential, and EV drivers will rely much more heavily on public or private charging equipment for their primary recharging locations.”
.“Compared to the rest of the world, a greater percentage of U.S. electric vehicle owners will live in single-family homes,” says senior analyst John Gartner. “In Asia Pacific and Europe, where multi-family housing is more common, just 35% of charge points will be residential, and EV drivers will rely much more heavily on public or private charging equipment for their primary recharging locations.”
Gartner adds that North America will also see a higher percentage of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), which require less charging infrastructure due to smaller battery packs and gasoline engines that extend their range. In addition, he says, utilities outside North America will more frequently serve as operators of public charging stations. These factors will result in a higher ratio of charging equipment to electrified vehicles in Asia Pacific and Western Europe, compared to the United States and Canada.
Pike Research’s study, “Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment”, analyzes technology and business issues related to the buildout of EV charging infrastructure in global markets. It examines the market for residential, public, private, and workplace charging stations as well as reviewing the key operational and technological impacts of plug-in hybrid and battery electric vehicles on the grid. Analysis includes an in-depth assessment of market drivers and barriers, along with profiles of charging infrastructure vendors and utilities. Detailed forecasts for EV charging equipment are included through 2015. An Executive Summary of the report is available for free download on the firm’s website.
Pike Research is a market research and consulting firm that provides in-depth analysis of global clean technology markets. The company’s research methodology combines supply-side industry analysis, end-user primary research and demand assessment, and deep examination of technology trends to provide a comprehensive view of the Smart Energy, Clean Transportation, Clean Industry, and Building Efficiency sectors.

Green Building News; Anadarko's (NYSE: APC) Timberloch Building Achieves LEED® Silver Certification
Green Building News; Anadarko's (NYSE: APC) Timberloch Building Achieves LEED® Silver Certification
HOUSTON, TX--(http://www.investorideas.com/ clean energy stocks blog ) - September 22, 2010 - Anadarko Petroleum Corporation (NYSE: APC) today announced that its Timberloch office building in The Woodlands, Texas has been awarded LEED® Silver certification by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC).
"As an energy producer, we are keenly aware of the importance of energy conservation, and achieving back-to-back LEED certifications for both of our corporate office buildings in The Woodlands is a testament to that understanding and our commitment," Anadarko Real Estate and Facilities Manager John Frere said. "I am very proud of the work by our facilities teams to improve conservation, achieve greater energy efficiency and enhance the overall environmental performance of the Timberloch building and our entire corporate office complex."
The Timberloch building, which is located at 1200 Timberloch Place, was completed in 1998. Under Anadarko's ownership, the Timberloch building was upgraded to achieve LEED Silver certification for energy use, lighting, water and material use, as well as incorporating a variety of other sustainable strategies. The LEED Silver certification of the Timberloch building follows last year's LEED certification of the adjacent 30-story Anadarko Tower, which was the first office building in The Woodlands to achieve LEED certification. Both buildings also are recognized for their savings on energy consumption with the Energy Star Award given by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The company has worked collaboratively with various vendors to upgrade and maximize features of both buildings such as the air filtration, the building automation system, and lighting infrastructure and controls. In addition, the team improved recycling programs and implemented green-cleaning and water-usage control programs.
The LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Green Building Rating System™ is an internationally recognized green building certification system that provides independent, third-party verification that a building meets the highest green building and performance measures.
A photo of Anadarko's Timberloch building and LEED Silver certification plaque will be available under the "Media Center/Anadarko News" tab at http://www.anadarko.com/.
Anadarko Petroleum Corporation's mission is to deliver a competitive and sustainable rate of return to shareholders by exploring for, acquiring and developing oil and natural gas resources vital to the world's health and welfare. As of year-end 2009, the company had approximately 2.3 billion barrels-equivalent of proved reserves, making it one of the world's largest independent exploration and production companies.

"We look forward to working with Suncor, a Canadian pioneer in wind power."
"We're excited about the opportunity to grow our current renewables portfolio," said Jim Provias, vice president, Renewable Energy. "Wintering Hills will be Suncor's biggest wind power project to date and another example of Suncor's ongoing commitment to increasing renewable energy options in Canada."
The 88 megawatt (MW) Wintering Hills wind power project – which received regulatory approval from the Alberta Utilities Commission (AUC) on June 7, 2010 – will consist of 55 General Electric 1.6 MW turbines located on privately-owned land approximately 21 km south east of Drumheller, Alberta. Construction on the project began in July and is expected to be complete by the end of 2011. At peak operation, Wintering Hills is expected to generate enough clean electricity to power approximately 35,000 Alberta homes, displacing the equivalent of approximately 200,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year.

Investorideas.com - Solar Stocks; Volume Leader OTC Stocks: ($0.14-$0.25): (OTCBB: SPBU), (OTCBB: SFMI), (OTCBB: HYSR), (OTCBB: SNBP)
Note to Editors: The Following Is an Investment Opinion Being Issued by OTC VOLUME LEADERS
Point Roberts, WA (Investorideas.com Newswire) September 22, 2010 - OTC VOLUME LEADERS reports on the most active trading stocks on the OTCBB. OTC Volume leaders ($0.14-$0.25) include Spare Backup, Inc. (OTCBB: SPBU), Silver Falcon Mining, Inc. (OTCBB: SFMI), HyperSolar, Inc. (OTCBB: HYSR), and Sinobiopharma, Inc. (OTCBB: SNBP).
OTC/Market Commentary:
Sectors include Solar Stocks
One of the OTCBB volume leader reports; HyperSolar, Inc. (OTCBB: HYSR): "HyperSolar is developing a breakthrough technology to magnify the power of the Sun to significantly increase the power output of solar cells. Based on innovative microphotonics and low cost manufacturing processes, HyperSolar is developing a thin, flat, optical layer that can inexpensively collect and deliver substantially more sunlight onto solar cells. This new approach allows solar cells to produce multiple times more power. With HyperSolar as the top layer, manufacturers can use significantly fewer solar cells in the production of solar panels, thereby dramatically reducing the cost per watt of electricity. HyperSolar technology can also be used to decouple light collection from light conversion to further reduce the cost per watt of solar panels, building integrated systems and utility scale power plants.
