Leading Green Franchise Offers Free Home Energy Audits on Earth Day

Pro Energy Consultants Helps Homeowners Reduce Energy Costs with Professional,
Standardized Residential Energy Audits

CLEVELAND, April 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Pro Energy Consultants, the nation's first
home energy audit franchise, announced today it will offer free home energy
audits on Earth Day, April 22, 2009. Homeowners who reside in its open
markets of Evansville, Charlotte, Albuquerque, Las Vegas and Jacksonville can
schedule their free home energy audit for Earth Day. Audits will be scheduled
on a first-come, first-served basis. Once the Earth Day schedule is filled,
others who call on or before Earth Day will receive a 50 percent discount on
their audit.

"Pro Energy is one of the nation's leading green franchises and offers
homeowners an affordable way to identify opportunities to make their homes
more energy efficient and significantly reduce their energy costs," said Derek
Sola, managing partner of Pro Energy Consultants. "Since Earth Day is
intended to inspire awareness and appreciation for the environment, we thought
it was the perfect day to provide homeowners in our existing markets with a
free home energy audit."

Pro Energy Consultants provides homeowners with qualified residential energy
auditing designed to maximize the home's energy efficiency and reduce energy
costs. Pro Energy uses state-of-the-art infrared imaging and blower-door
testing to determine wasteful energy use in a home or facility. The process
begins when a blower door is installed to the home's front door frame. The
blower door acts like a giant fan and blows air out of the home, exaggerating
the air flow and pressurization of the house and making energy leakage far
more detectable. Pro Energy Consultants then uses the latest in infrared
technology to scan the structure and systems in the home. This technical
testing and equipment gives homeowners a clear picture of exactly where their
home is losing energy, and therefore, wasting money.

Many states are beginning to subsidize and reward homeowners who make their
homes more energy efficient. Nevada has made energy audits mandatory when a
home changes ownership and many more states are considering taking this step.
In addition, many states will receive millions of dollars this year in
stimulus grants for energy-efficient projects, including weatherization of
homes.

With more than 14 years of residential energy auditing and franchising
experience, Pro Energy Consultants also offers entrepreneurs the opportunity
to join its franchise network and provide their respective communities with
professional, standardized energy auditing. Currently, Pro Energy has 15
franchises nationally with seven open for business in markets from coast to
coast. The company's growth goals for 2009 include recruiting at least 40 new
franchisees, operating in markets throughout the country.

Founded in 2008 by a team of nationally renowned energy, construction and
business experts, Pro Energy Consultants represents an ideal franchise
opportunity given the current economic conditions by providing interested
franchisees with a low-cost of entry. The total initial investment, including
the franchisee fee, is $35,000.

"We are seeking franchisees nationwide who have an entrepreneurial spirit and
a passion for the environment, as well as customer service. Energy auditing
experience is not required," said Sola. "Pro Energy Consultants is an
appealing career choice for those who may be fearful for their jobs or looking
for a second income, as well as those who simply want to fulfill their dream
of owning a low cost, highly profitable business."
