LAS VEGAS, April 3, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- EnerBrite Technologies Group, Inc. (Pink Sheets:ETGU) is proud to salute the success of Earth Hour 2008. On March 29, 26 flagship cities in 10 countries and 370 supporting cities around the world made Earth Hour 2008 the largest voluntary power down event in history. Cities around the world reported reductions in power usage during the hour, ranging by some reports from 1.5 percent up to an impressive 12.8 percent in Christchurch (NZ).
Earth Hour is a global movement that uses the symbolic action of turning off the lights for one hour to deliver a powerful message about the need for action on global warming. The goal of the annual event is to encourage communities, businesses and individuals to make those simple changes that together will make a collective difference -- such simple changes as households turning out lights in rooms not being used and businesses turning out lights when their offices are empty.
More than 20,000 businesses actively participated in Earth Hour 2008, signaling the growing commitment to energy conservation by the commercial sector as well as by citizens and governments. EnerBrite Technologies Group's energy management system can help commercial and multi-unit residential property owners decrease their energy use on a permanent basis long after Earth Hour has counted down. The system technology recognizes when an occupant enters or leaves a room, adjusting its HVAC system accordingly, thereby providing in-suite energy savings averaging 25 percent to 35 percent, and up to 40 percent -- year in and year out.
"Our corporate credo has always been: Why heat, cool and light an unoccupied space? This makes our goals a perfect fit with those of Earth Hour and all those communities and businesses worldwide who support it," stated Ed Herbert, President and Co-CEO of EnerBrite Technologies. "Our Company is firmly committed to providing energy saving technologies and solutions to support the energy conservation movement in its fight against global warming. Earth Hour is a fantastic awareness-raising campaign, and we're proud to say EnerBrite has already signed up for the 2009 event. We encourage every business out there to do the same."
