15 July 2008 - South Carolina County
Council Agrees to Negotiate with EcoPlus for Siting of Waste to
Energy Facility
Company Intends to Maximize Use of Federal Grant and Loan Programs
EcoPlus, Inc. (Pink Sheets ECPL) announced today that is has
received formal documentation of a unanimous resolution by the
Berkeley County, South Carolina, County Council voted upon on June
28, 2008, “…authorizing the Berkley County Water and Sewer Authority
to negotiate with EcoPlus, Inc. for the location of a
Recycling/Waste to Energy Facility.” The body of the resolution is
as follows.
WHEREAS, Berkeley County Water and Sewer Authority (the "Authority")
receives large quantities of fats, oils and greases ("FOG") from
various haulers unloading from the restaurants of the Trident area;
and
WHEREAS, the FOG results in significant additional cost and expense
to the operation of the sewer and treatment facilities operated by
the Authority; and
WHEREAS, EcoPlus, Inc. ("Eco") has developed a process by which it
can receive the FOG from the haulers and convert the FOG into a
solid containing significant energy for the generation of power from
recycled materials; and
WHEREAS, Eco believes that (i) it qualifies for federally sponsored
renewable fuels programs and (ii) it can relieve the Authority from
a substantial burden of the treatment and processing of FOG; and
WHEREAS, the Authority and Eco are interested in pursuing the
location of the recycling facility for FOG adjacent to existing
treatment facilities of the Authority and to that end seek to enter
into a letter of intent (the "LOI"') (i) to allow Eco and the
Authority to negotiate either a long term ground lease or the
purchase of land from the Authority and (ii) to allow Eco to enter
upon the land and perform environmental assessment, geotechnical
assessment, wetlands survey and similar due diligence.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Authority is hereby authorized to enter into the
LOI with Eco for the purpose of determining the suitability of the
lands for a FOG recycling facility on property owned by and adjacent
to existing facilities of the Authority. PROVIDED, the Authority is
not authorized to enter into any agreement for the sale or ground
lease of such land without further permission of the Berkeley County
Council.
Phil Hicks, President of EcoPlus. Inc., noted that, “Our patented
technology for FOG conversion is unique and gaining profile, due to
its ability to produce a high quality fuel. Should the siting phase
and follow-on evaluations result in completion of a facility,
EcoPlus intends to be owner-operator.” Hicks continued by noting
that “This project is within the footprint of the greater
Charleston, South Carolina, area, and provides substantial
opportunity for biofuel production and for increasing shareholder
value for EcoPlus. We look forward to working with Berkeley County
on the upcoming LOI and potential processing facility siting.”

CHARLOTTE, NC, June , 2008, EcoPlus, Inc. of Charlotte, North
Carolina (Pink Sheets: ECPL.PK), announced today that on June
10, 2008, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office approved the
issuance of a patent for the company's process for the treatment
of “brown grease.”
This freshly patented and commercially proven technology
utilizes an environmentally friendly process for turning brown
grease restaurant refuse into a high quality, solid fuel
product. This fuel product can be used as a coal substitute to
produce power, as an adjunct fuel in waste-to-energy and steam
plant operations and as a fuel for industrial process heat over
a broad range of applications whether as a standalone fuel or
cofired with other fuels or biofuels. The option to capture BTUs
for energy that is normally wasted is highly attractive in the
tight energy environment of today.
Phil Hicks, CEO of EcoPlus, Inc., noted, “This patent validates
our belief in our technology as being unique and will have a
substantial impact to the company’s future growth. With the
patent in hand, we have enhanced our credibility in both
treatment of brown grease, an increasingly high profile
environmental issue, and in the production of a constructive,
value added final product that is a high quality, alternative
fuel.”

EcoPlus Year End Report
Charlotte, N.C., January 15, 2008 – EcoPlus Inc. (PINKSHEETS: ECPL)
As 2007 has come to a close, the management team at EcoPlus would
like to report key areas of progress to its investors, partners and
customers. The company made significant strides this year in
several areas:
·
Developing relationships with multiple
electric generating utilities for potential fuel purchase
agreements.
·
Progress toward EcoPlus fuel’s status as a certified renewable
(green) fuel source.
·
In-depth investigation of potential sites for location of EcoPlus
processing facilities.
·
Observing the five-year milestone for operation of the first
licensee’s operating facility in Charlotte, NC.
In addition to these developments, the market for renewable (green)
fuel sources experienced a surge in interest this year. As of
December 2007, 25 states have passed legislation providing
incentives and/or requirements for the use of renewable fuels in the
generation of electricity. The continued push toward renewable fuel
use, and the ultimate goal of reducing carbon emissions, will
continue to increase the value of carbon-neutral renewable resources
such as EcoPlus fuel.
EcoPlus made significant strides in 2007 to reach its goal of
locating commercial processing facilities in partnership with
electric generating utilities, industrial facilities, and waste
treatment authorities. Among these accomplishments:
·
EcoPlus fuel will be part of a test burn
by a publicly owned electric utility early in 2008. This test burn
is the second test burn of EcoPlus fuel at a coal-fired generating
facility and represents the opportunity to confirm the suitability
of this material as a co-fired, hi-BTU source with improved emission
characteristics over fossil fuels.
·
The company developed relationships with multiple utilities over the
course of 2007 and expects that these relationships will result in
additional test burns in 2008. Test burns are a first step in
developing fuel purchase agreements with utilities.
·
EcoPlus engaged in in-depth discussions with multiple public service
authorities on opportunities to locate processing facilities in
their service areas. Since the EcoPlus feedstock is a grease
material difficult for treatment plants to process, the EcoPlus
facilities will relieve these public service authorities of the need
to accept this waste material that accounts for significant
maintenance and operating costs. These discussions are being held
in conjunction with development of potential fuel contracts at
generating facilities located in proximity to the area under
discussion.
·
EcoPlus continues to explore opportunities with industrial producers
who use coal as a primary fuel source to provide EcoPlus fuel as a
green alternative.
Looking Ahead—2008
With the progress made in 2007, EcoPlus enters 2008 with the
expectation that fuel contracts, partnerships with waste treatment
authorities, and the resulting establishment of processing
facilities can become a reality. Bringing these elements together
to create a commercial operating facility will require diligent
effort on the part of EcoPlus, but the company believes that the
heavy push toward using renewable resources provides an excellent
opportunity to establish new commercial operations in 2008.

Continues to Find Investor Interest in Private Side Adoption of Its
Alternative Fuel Technology
CHARLOTTE, NC, Oct 18, 2007 -- EcoPlus, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: ECPL)
announces preliminary negotiations with a private side developer to
establish plant locations in Virginia and the
District of Columbia to process brown grease
into an alternative fuel product. Up to four processing plants may
be constructed if negotiations are successfully concluded. Value to
EcoPlus over the life of the license could exceed $14 million.
Phil Hicks, president of
EcoPlus, noted, "This package of plants with their center of gravity
in northern Virginia and in the District could provide significant
awareness and a higher profile of our technology and could
ultimately impact beneficially public policy with respect to brown
grease disposal. Currently, in many jurisdictions, conventional
disposal amounts to dumping tons and tons of coal into a landfill
each day. Where is the wisdom in that? The useful energy
content of brown grease deserves better. "
