China Recycling Energy Corp. Announces New 10-Year Energy Efficiency Build
Operate Transfer ('BOT') Contract with Shenmu County Jiujiang Trading Co.,
Ltd.
-- $18.3 million top-line revenue to be recognized in Q3 2009
XI'AN, China, Nov. 1 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- China Recycling Energy
Corp. (OTC Bulletin Board: CREG) ('CREG' or 'the Company'), a fast-growing
industrial waste-to-energy solutions provider in China, today announced that
it has delivered to Shenmu County Jiujiang Trading Co., Ltd. ("Shenmu") a set
of 18-megawatt capacity power generating systems pursuant to a Cooperative
Contract on Coke-oven Gas Power Generation Project and a Gas Supply Contract
for Coke-oven Gas Power Generation Project. The 10-year Contracts provide that
the Company will recycle waste gas from Shenmu's 600,000 tons per year coke
production line to generate power, which will then be sold back to Shenmu for
use in production. Shenmu agrees to supply the coke-oven gas free of charge.
Power generation and delivery of power begin in October 2009.
Under the Contracts, Shenmu will pay to the Company "energy-saving service
fees" of approximately $473,000 per month for the life of the Contracts, as
well as such additional amount as may result from the supply of power to
Shenmu in excess of 10.80 million kilowatt hours per month at the rate of .30
yuan (approximately $.04) per kilowatt hour. The Company will subcontract a
third party operator at a cost of approximately $438,000 per year.
The Company expects to treat the Contracts as a sale-type lease. Based on the
accounting model CREG applies regarding sale-type leasing under US GAAP, the
Company expects to recognize approximately $18.3 million in revenue at
September 30, 2009 (the delivery date) with a related cost of goods sold of
$14.1 million. After the inception of the lease, CREG anticipates that it will
recognize a total amount of $38.4 million as interest income from this
sale-type lease over the 10-year term, on a monthly accumulative basis as it
receives the monthly installment payments from Shenmu.
The Company maintains the ownership of the project throughout the term of the
Contracts, including the already completed investment, design, equipment,
construction and installation as well as the operation and maintenance of the
project. CREG agrees to pay to Shenmu 50,000 yuan (about $7,300) a year to use
the land for the power station. At the end of the 10-year term, ownership of
the systems transfers to Shenmu at no additional charge.
"This is CREG's first project in the coking industry, one of the most energy
intensive sectors in China." said Mr. Guohua Ku, CEO of CREG. "This project is
expected to reduce annual coal consumption by 52,000 tons, equivalent of
130,000 tons of CO2 emissions. We are excited about the substantial growth in
our Company as we take on ever larger projects with waste gas-to-energy
solution."
