Internal Hydro International Inc. IHDR (www.InternalHydro.com) announces that with the production of the
Energy Commander V small hydro units, selected locations in North Carolina which
were previously identified and under agreement will be the first initial
locations where the first production units will be placed. With literally tens
of thousands of locations where the 30 Kilowatt low impact hydro system can be
located across the country, IHDR chose to concentrate on areas of Western North
Carolina, for initial placement, and located numerous applications sites where
the units could be easily implemented to supply electricity on a constant basis
for the end users, or sold to the grid. The projected locations studied would
support over 70 units, on the limited sites studied in a three county area of
Western North Carolina. Each unit, with a projected $17,500 per unit annual
revenue, will cut electricity costs for the end user and create large revenues
for IHDR. With first article units to be completed and tested by the end of
April 2006, and initial production and placement of units to follow in Europe
with IHDR's EU partner, Cm2, and IHDR's domestic placement, initial production
placement is set by the end of the second quarter, 2006.
In numerous locations in the Western North Carolina area, the use of the EC V
has been identified to be superior and fit well over traditional turbines, due
to the lower and smaller amount of flow which is required to make electricity,
with less effects than turbines to the environment. Studies of a limited ten
locations show that multiple units, some as many as 40 or as little as 3 units
can be located on available natural and industrial cooling and water use streams
in the area.
"Indeed, not all locations were studied which would be available in the area; it
was simply the ones we chose to study with the owners commitment," stated Craig
A. Huffman, CEO and President of IHDR. "With the tremendous relationships
developed in the area, with the Governmental entities, and private industry,
their support of our products to come to market, I feel it is only suiting that
we use Yadkin County and surrounding areas of North Carolina to field our first
production units," continued Huffman.
An EC V energy unit in production will be able to supply a constant 30 kilowatts
of constantly available electricity in many applications at the low volumes
given by multiple end users identified by over 200 applications and interest
from potential users around North America alone.
The EC V units use the natural flows of water from dams, water pipelines,
streams and rivers, along with the multiple uses in industrial flows in
wood-pulp, chemical, lumber, mining, textile, steel production, oil refining,
utility plants, cooling systems in all such uses, and other uses defined by our
end potential users. The flows as shown available from these users mean that the
applications of the EC V will be so numerous, that the identified uses by end
users under contract and letter of intent will fill out the first year's
targeted placement. With over 500 units projected and targeted in the first year
of production for U.S. use, the domestic market will mean an ongoing production
and entry of a solid energy unit without competition using the positive
displacement system. Each unit, at a projected cost of $7,500 per unit, will
have a five to seven year life, where change out of the system will mean a down
time planned at less than thirty minutes for the complete unit changeout, the EC
V unit that will be able to use its reporting system to monitor maintenance
requirements as well as unit production via a satellite reporting system to
IHDR.
The corporate philosophy of IHDR is to have impactful dividends from its EC
operations shared with its shareholders. With combined revenue from the 1100 EC
units from both the EU and the US after one year of operations, the combined
available revenue to IHDR is projected to be $23,450,000. Additionally, IHDR is
and will entertain distributor and licensing arrangements for negotiated fees as
set by management in the near future for areas of North and South America as
well as Asia.
