China Energy Recovery Secures US$5 Million in New Loans

Monday, Feb 08, 2010

China Energy Recovery, Inc., an international leader in the design, fabrication, installation and servicing of waste heat recovery systems, announced today that it entered into a series of agreements to secure $5 million (U.S.) in new debt financing, which will be applied to the continued development and construction of its new production facility in Shanghai.

Two investors provided an aggregate of $4 million under separate loans of $2 million, each of which matures in January 2013 and bears interest at an annual rate of 15.1%.

An additional $1 million was provided through Haide Engineering (Hong Kong) Ltd., a company that CER's Chairman and CEO, Qinghuan Wu controls. This is an unsecured, interest-only loan bearing an annual interest rate of 9.5% and matures in January 2012.

With this transaction, CER has raised approximately $10 million in loans during the last six months toward the design and construction of its new production facility, which is scheduled to be completed this year. This facility will provide CER with more efficient production, increase its overall production capacity and position the company to continue to extend its operations in building and installing cost efficient, high-performance waste heat recovery systems in China and other markets.

What is Waste Heat Energy Recovery?

Industrial facilities release significant amounts of excess heat into the atmosphere in the form of hot exhaust gases or high-pressure steam. Energy recovery is the process of recovering as much as two-thirds of that wasted energy and converting it into usable heat energy or electricity, dramatically lowering energy costs. Energy recovery systems are also capable of lowering heat pollution and capturing harmful pollutants that would otherwise be released into the environment. It is estimated that if energy currently wasted by all the U.S. industrial facilities could be recovered, it could produce power equivalent to 20% of U.S. electricity generation capacity without burning any additional fossil fuel, and could help many industries to meet stringent environmental regulations.
