AAB Aberdeen International Inc

Aberdeen International Inc. (“Aberdeen” or the “Company”) (TSX: AAB F: A8H, OTC: AABVF) is pleased to announce the new rebranding of its portfolio company, AES-100 Inc., to become Progressus Clean TechnologiesTM (“Progressus”). The new name and brand marks a significant first step towards successful commercialization of its unique green hydrogen technology and continued vision in becoming a leading clean energy company.

“Progressus is the Latin word for advancement, and its suiting because our technology has the ability to transform the way our world uses green energy,” said Channce Fuller, President and CEO of Progressus. “Establishing a new brand and market presence is a key first step to the successful commercialization of our technology. This exciting milestone allows Progressus to pursue additional business opportunities going forward and brings us closer in providing clean hydrogen energy to residential homes.”

Uniquely differentiated, Progressus owns the intellectual property for a world class proprietary system that enables lower cost hydrogen production with no greenhouse gas emissions. Further, Progressus technology does not rely on construction of new infrastructure, instead leveraging existing pipeline infrastructure to bring clean power to the doorsteps of common residential homes. The name change and new brand aligns the vision and mission of the company to transform the green hydrogen landscape.

"We're extremely proud of the Progressus technology and want to make sure its strategically branded to succeed in the marketplace. The ethos associated with the name does exactly that. Although Progressus is a new name, our purpose of providing a renewable and sustainable economy stays the same. This continues to position us as a company making a positive difference in the world," said Christopher Younger, CEO of Aberdeen.

In conjunction with the name change, the company also launched its new website with the most up to date information on technology developments as well as relevant market updates. The new website can be viewed at www.progressuscleantech.com.
