Stock Listing: MP:TSXV Stock Listing (US): MCTYF: OTC Outstanding Shares: 29.9 million Web Site: www.microplanet.com SEATTLE, March 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MicroPlanet, (MP:TSXV & MCTYF:OTC) a clean technology, energy conservation company, announced today that Maui Land & Pineapple Company has placed an order to install MicroPlanet systems to save energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions on commercial buildings located at the Kapalua Resort in Hawaii. The initial order for the first phase of the project is for 14 systems and valued at approximately $350,000. Deliveries are expected to begin in June, 2008. Maui Land & Pineapple conducted a pilot program over a six month period to test the effectiveness of MicroPlanet products on its commercial facilities at the Kapalua Resort. The results of the pilot indicated the MicroPlanet technology saved an average of 12.87% on kWh consumption and reduced kVAR (demand) by 34.48%. The Kapalua Resort is a 23,000-acre, master-planned community with approximately 1,200 commercial and residential buildings set amidst a working pineapple plantation on Maui's northwest coast. "Maui Land & Pineapple Company's commitment to energy conservation and sustainability practices at Kapalua represents a large scale commercial opportunity for MicroPlanet. We look forward to working with Maui L&P at these sites and on their other buildings over the next few years to help them meet their conservation objectives," said Bruce Lisanti, President and CEO of MicroPlanet. "The results of the Kapalua pilot tests and the subsequent initial commercial order, is validation that our new commercial 3-Phase products are being rapidly adopted to reduce energy consumption and lower electrical bills. MicroPlanet's products are now being deployed on a large scale by both businesses and utilities as a cost effective way to save energy, improve power quality and reduce greenhouse emissions," concluded Lisanti. MicroPlanet has signed multiple pilot agreements in 2007 and 2008 with major fast food, grocery and convenience store chains to install systems throughout the US. The results of these pilots are showing that this technology can reduce energy consumption in commercial environments from 5% to 12%, without requiring customers to make any other changes in behavior or equipment.
