Aspire Engaged by Power Efficiency as Corporate Communications Firm


SAN DIEGO, Nov. 10, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aspire Clean Tech Communications, Inc., a corporate communications and strategic advisory firm dedicated to the renewable energy and clean tech markets, announced today that it has been engaged by Power Efficiency Corporation (OTCBB:PEFF) to provide corporate communications and advisory services.

Aspire CEO Todd Pitcher said, "Energy efficiency is the most fundamental and effective way to ease tightening global demand for energy and reduce green house gas emissions. Power Efficiency is addressing key areas of the energy management marketplace through technologies that make electric motors more efficient. Electric motors consume more than 25% of the electricity in the U.S. Power Efficiency's products are already being used in elevators and escalators, which account for 5% of building electricity use in North America, as well as numerous industrial applications, such as conveyors, grinders, crushers, granulators, and more. Power Efficiency has also developed a product for improving the efficiency of small motors, such as those found in appliances. I think there is massive potential for Power Efficiency's technology in the energy management market and believe that the business is well-positioned to tap into that potential. This should translate into a solid investment opportunity for growth-oriented investors."

BJ Lackland, Power Efficiency's Chief Financial Officer, said, "We are excited to work with Aspire to build awareness of Power Efficiency in the investment community. We have been primarily focused on developing our business and technology. However, with the release of our new products and in anticipation of positive business developments, it is now important to raise the profile of Power Efficiency in the eyes of the investment community and media."

Factors driving commercial adoption include:



 * Volatile global energy prices and rising global energy demand;
 * Pressures to reduce energy consumption in buildings, which
   account for 68% of the nation's total electricity consumption and
   39% of its total energy consumption;
 * Geo-political climate: Kyoto Protocol, emission goals,
   cap-and-trade policies and green house gas initiatives driving
   global adoption trends; and
 * ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental
   Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy helping us
   all save money and protect the environment through energy
   efficient products and practices
