TORONTO — (MARKET WIRE) — 10/19/10 — Atlantic Wind & Solar Inc. (PINKSHEETS: AWSL), a leading edge renewable energy company, positioned to capture significant market share in the true growth sector of the 21st century, reports on recent developments including: the completion of their financial audit, the steps made toward up-grading the company’s listing status, the extension of their sales force, the increase in the project pipeline, and the status of project construction.
Financial Audit Completed/Up Listing Status: Sam Kan & Company , Atlantic’s SEC approved financial auditor, has completed the company’s SEC financial audit. Due to the reverse takeover of the original public company, Environmental Technologies (EMTI), it was necessary to audit the stockholders’ equity dating from 2009 back to 1977.
Atlantic Wind & Solar CEO, Mr. Pierre Cousin , expresses: “On behalf of the entire Atlantic team, I would like to thank all shareholders for their patience while waiting for the audit to be achieved, and would also like to thank accountant Sam Kan and his staff for their dedication in completing this lengthy task. Although the audit took a considerable amount of time, the timing is perfectly in sync with several turning points in our operations.”
The company is now completing its S-1 registration statement, which will be filed with the Securities Exchange Commission . Upon submission, the company has elected to enter into a brief quiet period and will not be making any significant announcements until the process is completed. Upon the S-1 Registration taking effect, the company will thereafter be a SEC Reporting Issuer, allowing it to move off of the Pinksheets immediately, and onto a more recognized trading platform.
Multiplies Sales Team/Increases Pipeline:
During the last two months, management has significantly increased its external commission based sales force while adding another dozen commercial lease brokers to the program. This strengthened “best in class” team continues to advance over 100 pre-qualified projects towards construction and is believed to be one of the largest sales forces in Ontario assembled to focus on the deployment of utility scale, rooftop solar energy parks.
Construction on the Starting Block:
Atlantic Wind & Solar awaits a number of Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) approvals expected imminently from the Ontario Power Authority (OPA). Once received, project construction dates will be announced using a phased roll out format. This batch of 250kW projects, (previously announced) will showcase the new Aim inverter which is expected to set new standards throughout the global renewable energy sector. To insure that construction scheduling coincides with FIT contract approvals, and in an effort to curtail delay, management has pre-purchased some of the time critical equipment necessary for the projects.
CEO Pierre Cousin comments: “I am very pleased to see the Atlantic team delivering as planned. Professionalism and operational excellence are definitely part of the genes of the company. I am confident our shareholders, customers and partners will appreciate this facet of our overall value proposition.”
