Disenco Energy Urges Government to Accelerate Energy Saving Targets

Disenco Energy plc (TSX VENTURE:DIS), the Sheffield-based company that is poised to transform energy consumers into energy producers with its micro Combined Heat and Power (m-CHP) appliance, welcomes Prime Minister Gordon Brown's initiatives to provide £910 million in fuel measures to address rising energy costs, but agrees with consumer groups that much more must be done to combat the soaring burden of home energy fuel bills, which could be significantly reduced by the adoption of Disenco’s disruptive technology.

Disenco is moving ahead to market production in Q3 of 2009 with its m-CHP appliance, the HomePowerPlant ("HPP”). The HPP appliance singularly allows home owners to produce all of their heating and hot water requirements from a dishwasher-sized appliance installed in the home, and simultaneously generate up to 50% of their annual electricity requirements and generate additional electricity for sale back to the power grid.

Importantly, by producing energy in the home instead of having it delivered from the national grid with inefficient transmission losses, home owners will be able to produce their energy needs on site at 92% efficiency while cutting their carbon footprint by up to 66% of their total yearly emissions as well as saving up to 35% of their annual electricity bills and earning monies from the sale of electricity.

HPP is more efficient and delivers a much faster return on investment than solar panels and wind turbines, and competes directly with the replacement condensing boiler market. Prototypes of the unit have undergone successful testing with The Carbon Trust.

"Disenco Energy's HomePowerPlant technology is not only disruptive, but is destined to change the way people produce and use energy in the home to maximize energy efficiency," says Tony Caplin, CEO of Disenco Energy. "By generating electricity in the home, the homeowner can substantially reduce their fuel and electricity costs and Disenco will help governments around the world meet energy efficiency targets earlier than expected."

About Disenco

Disenco Energy plc was established in 2003 to commercialise a worldwide market for highly-efficient, energy-saving micro-combined heat and power (m-CHP) appliances for domestic and small business premises using patented technology. Its product – the ‘HomePowerPlant’ – is an enabling technology capable of providing over 92% energy conversion, generating heat and water for users as well as exporting electricity to the National Grid. Its technology offers economic benefits for utilities and households, provides triple the electrical output of other technologies and enables significant reductions in CO2 emissions.

In February 2007 it listed as a public trading company on the Canadian TSX Venture Exchange ("DIS.V”).

Notes to Editors

According to predictions by Cambridge Consultants Ltd, the early adoption of domestic CHP could easily lead to sales and service contracts worth over Euros 2.1 billion per year across Europe by 2010. The company also predicts that utilities could see additional profits of Euros 200 million per year, based on a figure of 10% electricity generated by CHP. Ian Halliday-Pegg of Cambridge Consultants says: ''With over five million domestic boilers sold every year throughout Europe, domestic CHP is a mass-volume business opportunity that simply cannot be ignored''.
