SEFE, Inc. Provides Operational Update

 

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- SEFE, Inc. (OTCBB:SEFE.OBNews) ("SEFE") ("The Company"), an emerging technology and solutions driven alternative energy company, is pleased to provide an update on its efforts towards bringing to market our flagship product Harmony.

Specifically, since 2008 the company has been testing, protecting and preparing its technology to commercially launch an aerostatic collector to harness atmospheric electricity and convert atmospheric electricity into usable power. Donald Johnston, Chief Executive Officer commented, "Our technology was founded in 2008 with a view towards having a positive impact on our communities by utilizing a ubiquitous and cheap source of energy – atmospheric electricity. The last four years have seen this mere idea evolve into a solution that we aim to commercialize and sell to mining and manufacturing companies as well as to utility companies and others."

Most recently, the company has produced both fixed and mobile prototypes and has been conducting tests at various geographic locations in diverse environmental conditions. The data collected from these and upcoming tests will prove invaluable as we approach commercialization.

"Since the initial tests proved that this could be a viable energy source, we have been building a portfolio of intellectual property to protect our solutions in order to ensure our place in a growing alternative energy industry. This includes patented technology to provide a low cost and highly available source of electric power", said Michael Hurowitz, Director of Engineering.

In addition, the company has and continues to work with top tier attorneys and firms to protect the company's Intellectual Property and plans to file additional patents with the US Patent and Trademark Office.

Donald Johnston, CEO added "According to Bloomberg New Energy Finance's Global Renewable Energy Market Outlook, global net power production is scheduled to increase by 90% over the next 20 years. Also, the clean energy market is expected to grow to $254 billion by 2017. This information along with more aggressive energy policies at all levels of government, position SEFE's technology to participate not only in the existing renewables market but also to capitalize on the growth of renewables use in developing economies."

 

About SEFE, Inc.

SEFE focuses on pushing the boundaries of what's possible, embracing innovation and employing the cutting-edge to solve problems, and offering sustainable solutions to a world hungry for invention, direction and leadership. SEFE is technology- and solutions-driven, focusing on developing inventions that provide a real-world impact and true profitability. So, success is measured by both a sustainable return on investment, as well as a project's sustainability from an environmental perspective.

The Associated Press: Natural gas drops 2.4 percent; oil back above $103

There really is a price war between oil and gas for vehicles, especially heavy large ones. What will your car drive on: electricity, natural gas, biofuel, petroleum gas? What mix? Electric is probably going to be the longer term winner, but gas and methane distillates would depress energy prices and create price wars.

YOU HAVE REACHED WOOH'S STREAM
The Internet User's Best Kept Secret

Sketches from scratches is a provocative blogspot that has grown out of the Wuh Lax experience. It is eclectic, which means that it might consider just about anything from the simple to the extremely difficult. A scratch can be something that is troubling me or a short line on paper. From a scratch comes a verbal sketch or image sketch of the issue or subject. Other sites have other stuff that should really be of interest to the broad reader. I try to develop themes, but variety often comes before depth. ... more!
