Leo Motors Signs an Agreement to Supply E-Box Solar Set
The E-Box system will be combined with a solar panel to provide an environmentally friendly solution to power outages for affordable housing in that part of the world.
SEOUL, South Korea, Nov. 12, 2012 -- Leo Motors, Inc.
electrical energy storage device maker, and PDI C&D/RDC SPRL Inc.
("PDI"), an affiliate of PDI Global LLC, a major architectural design
company in the U.S., have signed a contract to supply an independent solar
power system grafted with Leo Motors' E-Box power storage device for a
housing project in the Democratic Republic of the Congo ("DRC").
The contract contemplates an initial sale of 5,000 E-Box solar sets at an
aggregate sales price of $64 million targeted to begin in 2013.
Additionally, the purchaser can order an additional 50,000 E-Box Solar sets.
However, there can be no assurance that any orders will actually be placed
as a result of the agreement.
The E-Box system will be combined with a solar panel to provide an
environmentally friendly solution to power outages for affordable housing in
that part of the world. Unlike existing power systems, the Solar E-Box
system is a Central Energy Storage System, which allows individual houses to
use electric power through a photovoltaic system, eliminating huge facility
costs. When fully charged, the E-Box automatically stores electricity. The
all-in-one E-Box combined with a photovoltaic system streamlines the power
generation process by eliminating many other components applied to existing
photovoltaic systems.
Based on its production schedule, the Company expects to complete the full
order by the end of 2015.
"This contract is significant, as it is Leo Motors' first signed contract to
provide Solar E-Box systems supplying an independent electric energy source
for homes in the DRC," said Jung Yong Lee, CEO of Leo Motors. "The energy
storage system market is showing an upward trend worldwide. We anticipate
that demand for the Solar E-Box will increase."
