ZBB Energy Corporation Announce the Shipment of a ZESS 50 Energy Storage System to Future House USA Project

This ZESS 50(TM) fuel cell zinc energy storage system has been chosen to provide the key energy storage element in the Zero Net Energy ("ZNE"), Future House USA ("FHUSA") home that will be on public display at the Beijing Olympic Games starting in August 2008 and continuing through the following six years.

The Sponsors of the FHUSA Project, the Learn Green Foundation ofIllinois and Florida International University, are very excited to include the ZESS 50 product in their 'non toxic, path to Zero Net Energy' house design. "The local storage that the ZESS 50 provides, is a key element for attaining the state of energy independence," states George Bialecki Jr., Director of the Future House USA.

ZBB joins other FHUSA suppliers which include, Climate Master Heat Pumps, Atlantis Energy PV Systems, Dawn Solar Thermal, Delta EMS Systems, Lucid Design Group, Decra Roofing Systems, Sloan Valve, and Outback Inverters.

This will be the first installation of the ZESS 50 in a residential application and will allow the house to operate completely independently of the electrical grid. With a footprint of approximately 4 x 4 x 8ft, the unit is approximately the same size of a refrigerator and can be installed in the basement utility section of the house. The unit does not pose any environmental hazards, nor does it have any special installation requirements.

The Future House USA is expected to receive a broad array of press attention. Many high level officials on a global scale have been invited to visited, including the President ofthe United States. Well over three million people are expected to tour the facility and view these latest environmental technologies being implemented in the Future House USA Project. The house will continue to operate and data log all systems for six years after the Olympics.
