Scottish Water Horizons and Sharc Energy created a new Joint Venture
SHARC Energy Systems UK and Scottish Water Horizons Launch JV to Support Green Energy Agenda
Vancouver – (March 20, 2018) – SHARC International Systems Inc. (CSE: SHRC) (FSE: IWIA) (OTCQB: INTWF) (“SHARC”), is pleased to announce that its SHARC subsidiary, SHARC Energy Systems (“SHARC”) has joined forces with Scottish Water Horizons (“SWH”), a commercial subsidiary wholly owned by Scottish Water, to establish a joint venture (“JV”) which will enable them to expand and accelerate the deployment of wastewater heat recovery systems across Scotland.
The joint venture, to be called Bandwidth Energy Ltd. (“Bandwidth”) has been set up to manage the installation and maintenance of a number of key green energy projects which are currently in the advanced stages of planning.
Scottish Water Horizons will provide commercial funding for the projects, with SHARC providing the design, build and operational expertise for the green energy installations.
The Scottish Government is supporting the projects by providing 50 per cent grant capital support through its Low Carbon Infrastructure Transition Programme (“LCITP”).
The new alliance will support the Scottish Government’s ambitious renewable heat and carbon reduction targets for 2020. It is the result of three years of collaboration between SHARC and Scottish Water Horizons, which has created a £20 million ($36.8 million CAD) pipeline of potential installations across Scotland that, when deployed, will generate 170 GWHs per year of heating and cooling to displace the fossil fuel currently used.
This joint venture follows the launch of the UK’s first Sewage Heat Recovery system, developed and installed by SHARC and facilitated by Scottish Water Horizons, at Borders College in Galashiels, which aims to displace 1.8 GWhs (Giga Watt hours) of natural gas and save over 150 tonnes of carbon emissions per year.
The system provides heating and cooling to customers through a heat supply agreement. This works much like that of any energy supplier, but the main difference is that customers have no up-front costs. Included in the heat supply agreement are the costs of design, installation, servicing and maintenance and the supply of equipment.
The innovative SHARC™ wastewater heat exchange system, which has been deployed in numerous international locations, intercepts wastewater from sewers and uses heat pump technology to amplify the natural warmth of wastewater. This generates an energy-saving, cost-effective and environmentally-friendly system for heating, cooling and hot water production in commercial and residential buildings.
Russ Burton, SHARC’s Chief Operating Officer said: “This announcement is a very exciting step for SHARC and represents the culmination of three years of very productive work with Scottish Water Horizons to identify opportunities for the SHARC technology. “Having the support from Scottish Water Horizons will give customers confidence in the SHARC technology, positioning it as a sustainable and viable wastewater heat recovery solution.”
Paul Kerr, Managing Director of Scottish Water Horizons, said: “Heat accounts for over 50 percent of Scotland’s total energy use, so by forming this alliance to deploy further heat from waste water schemes, we can help further develop Scotland’s low carbon economy. Our alliance with SHARC provides us with a unique and exciting opportunity to maximise the residual heat that runs through some of Scottish Water’s 32,000 miles of sewer pipes. Using this innovative technology we are able to roll out a sustainable, low-carbon heating solution to our customers, whilst enhancing and protecting the environment. “

"We're tickled to death," said Brett Kramer, managing partner of Pinnacle Investment Advisors, a Tulsa, Okla., firm that manages about $700 million worth of assets.
Mr. Kramer bought about $50,000 worth of American's shares when they were trading over the counter for about $1.35 each in February, a few days before the airline announced its merger. Today, Pinnacle's shares are worth more than $413,000.

STEV, Stevia, could rebound, see the press release
Stevia Corp. President Discusses Expansion Plans.
Blankenbaker Delivers First in Series of 3 Articles Detailing New Revenue Streams
INDIANAPOLIS, IN--(Marketwired - Sep 10, 2013) - Stevia Corp. (OTCQB: STEV) ("Stevia Corp." or the "Company"), a farm management company focused on the economic development of stevia, the fastest growing product in the alternative sweetener sector, is pleased to offer insights regarding key aspects of its planned expansion plans.
Stevia Corp. successfully completed the first phase of its commercialization program achieving its targeted $3million revenue over the six month period ended June 30, 2013. The company is now focused on expanding its proven business model and aims to double production by the spring of 2014.
George Blankenbaker, Stevia Corp. President, comments, "Following Stevia Corp's successful harvest during the spring of 2013, our project was featured in the Vietnam Journal of Finance and a 1/2 hour nationally televised program. This recognition provided additional credibility and we are now being approached by international companies to grow for them as well as discussing potential joint ventures to operate processing factories in Vietnam. We have completed test shipments to both South Korea and Europe proving that we can meet international standards and we are preparing to enter into long-term supply agreements with buyers from both South Korea and the Netherlands."
Mr. Blankenbaker further explains, "Because Stevia Corp's model has proven to be a win-win for all parties and the farmers who participated earned higher revenues, we have the full support of the Vietnamese government and there is a waiting list of farmers who want to participate in our program. This enables us to select the best operators and maintain our high quality control standards as we expand. These key factors provide the foundation and impetus for us to rapidly expand our production to meet the growing demands of international buyers."
Blankenbaker concludes, "To successfully operate in a new market, it generally takes a few years for a company to establish itself and become well entrenched in the region while garnering the confidence and support of all parties, including the local farm communities as well as the local and national governments. But once achieved, it creates a strong foundation for rapid development. Stevia Corp has now attained this milestone and is preparing for the next phase of rapid expansion."
