These market applications will address issues such as renewable energy support and electricity demand management, which are areas of focus of the Canadian government in its goal of reducing diesel fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions,” concluded Sorace The 10kWh VRB-ESS is scheduled for delivery end of March 2006. The VRB-ESS is focused towards stationary applications such as utility substations, commercial buildings, production facilities, telecommunication operations, cellular radio sites and renewable resource generation such as wind and solar applications, where its utilization creates the ability to provide “firm” capacity. As a “green” technology, the VRB-ESS is characterized by having a low ecological impact and is unlike most other conventional energy storage systems that rely on toxic substances such as lead or cadmium. VRB Power is publicly listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (“VRB”) and the OTC Pinksheets (“VRBPF”).vrbpower.com
