EGPI Firecreek, Inc. Acquisition Candidate Arctic Solar Engineering, LLC Receives New Purchase Order
Acquisition Completion Slated For February 04, 2011
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Jan 31, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- EGPI Firecreek, Inc. (OTCBB: EFIR) is pleased to announce that their latest acquisition candidate Arctic Solar Engineering, LLC. ("ASE") has received a new purchase order for the Sheet Metal Workers Union based out of St. Louis, Missouri.
ASE is providing a Solar Thermal system for the potable hot water in the building as part of this complete rehabilitation and redevelopment project. Installation of the solar system will be provided by contractors OJ Laughlin Plumbing Company. All components and the complete general oversight will be provided by ASE.
As previously announced, EGPI Firecreek entered into a binding Letter of Intent to acquire St. Louis, MO. based Arctic Solar Engineering, LLC, a privately held supplier and integrator of solar thermal systems and absorption units. The acquisition is slated for completion on February 04, 2011.
Arctic Solar Engineering, LLC, is an integrator of Solar Thermal Energy technology. Solar Thermal Energy ("STE") is the most efficient and economical method of capturing and using renewable thermal energy created by the sun every day of the year. The solar collectors that are used, based upon a heat pipe design which operates under basic laws of physics, capture all visible and non-visible wave lengths of sun light and covert the light into energy at 90% efficiency. Energy created by ASE's STE systems store that energy in water (or other similarly inexpensive storage mediums) and then use that energy in its direct form to heat water, heat space and cool spaces. According to the US Department of Energy, this accounts for 70% of all energy used in commercial and residential structures in the United States.
Fred Sussman, CEO of Arctic Solar Engineering, stated, "Arctic Solar Engineering is pleased to be providing the Solar Thermal Energy ("STE") system, a key component of the alternative energy solution for the new offices of the Sheet Metal Workers Union Local 36. Arctic Solar's state of the art STE system will immediately provide measurable savings upon its installation with a projected payback of five years. Thereafter, Local 36 will realize savings equal to the amount they would have spent on the energy provided by our system." He also stated, "This newly rehabilitated green energy building clearly demonstrates that the time is right for Arctic's STE systems as these solutions can be readily integrated into new and existing structures."
About Arctic Solar Engineering, LLC
Arctic Solar Engineering, LLC integrates Solar Thermal Energy technology patented over 30 years ago by Daimler Aerospace in Germany. This technology is used throughout Germany, other parts of Europe, Asia and the Middle East. ASE's competitive advantage is product knowledge and knowledge of how water based energy systems work and can be successfully implemented to reduce an average building's energy consumption by up to 70%.
