PENNINGTON, N.J., Mar 3, 2005 (PRIMEZONE via COMTEX) -- WorldWater & Power Corporation (WWAT, Trade), maker of high-horsepower solar energy systems, today announced signing of a contract for $1.8 million to supply solar-generated electricity for a tree farm in California. The company's proprietary solar AquaMax(TM) will drive a 200 hp water pump in addition to the system saving an estimated 70% of the Cocopah tree farm's electrical bills, according to Quentin T. Kelly, WorldWater's Chairman and CEO.
The owner of the farm said, "We're happy to use environmental measures to do our work. With this advanced solar technology we will be conserving electricity and water and reducing our operations costs." Work on the project will begin immediately.
WorldWater & Power recently completed another AquaMax(TM) system driving a 200 hp pump for Seley Ranches, a citrus farm in California. The company also supplied all the solar equipment for a one megawatt solar installation at Cerro Coso College in Ridgecrest, CA, which the college estimates will supply 60% of its electricity and save the college over $300,000 a year. WorldWater & Power also recently signed a contract with the Idyllwild (CA) Water District to operate seven of the utility's pumps by use of the AquaMax(TM) system. Engineering work has begun on that Project.
