PR Newswire (US)
HAMDEN, Conn., May 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Host America Corporation
(Pink Sheets: CAFE.PK) today announced that it has established a
distribution network to support the sales and marketing of
EnerLume-EM(TM) light controllers. EnerLume-EM(TM) is a patent
pending product that uses technology to manage incoming power to
fluorescent lighting systems in stores, warehouses and similar
facilities, reducing electricity use by up to 15% without reducing
perceived luminosity. The program establishes three tiers of
distribution for the patent- pending, EnerLume-EM(TM) digital
fluorescent light energy manager - a Master Channel Partner and a
Direct Channel Partner who will have a direct relationship with the
company and a Channel Partner who will deal directly with a Master
Channel Partner. Power Reduction Services LLC of Hamden has been
signed as a Master Channel Partner for the distribution network,
and will deal directly with Host America while developing and
managing relationships with Channel Partners. Master Channel
Partners are required to maintain an inventory of 150
EnerLume-EM(TM) units for sales to their customers and Channel
Partners, and support the Channel Partners who provide
distribution, installation and consultant services to customers.
Four Direct Channel Partners have joined the network enabling them
to deal directly with Host America during a six month period in
which they will determine whether they want to move to Master
Channel Partner status or Channel Partner status. Six organizations
have already signed on to become Channel Partners. "EnerLume-EM is
an energy conservation product that has come out at the right time.
It provides McBride Electric with the opportunity to reduce our
clients' cost of electricity and help them qualify for tax
incentives and accelerated depreciation under the Energy Policy Act
of 2005," said David DiLoreto, president and chief operating
officer of McBride Electric (http://www.mcbrideelectric.com/), a
recently signed Direct Channel Partner and a national electrical
contracting firm headquartered in San Diego, CA. with a network of
14 company owned branch offices across 12 cities employing over 340
full-time technicians. "We are excited to be part of the
EnerLume-EM(TM) revolution in energy conservation." EnerLume-EM(TM)
uses technology to manage incoming power so that the ballasts for
fluorescent lights draw energy from the electric wave only when
power transmission is most efficient. This allows perceived light
levels to be maintained while reducing electricity use by up to
15%. Additional energy savings can be achieved by using
EnerLume-EM(TM) to dim or selectively curtail lights during after
hour periods. Host America has launched a customer-oriented website
- http://www.enerlume.com/ - with information about the products
and case studies of product applications, among other topics. A
complete listing of the newly appointed EnerLume-EM(TM)
distributors and their contact points are also available on the
website. Cautions Concerning Forward-Looking Statements All
