CLENERGEN CORPORATION (CRGE.BB) APPOINTS TIM BOWEN AS CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
FOR IMMEDIATE
RELEASE
April 7, 2010
Clenergen today announces the appointment of Tim Bowen as Chief Operating
Officer of Clenergen Corporation, with immediate effect.
Tim (aged 45) has significant experience in advising companies on increasing
shareholder value. Most recently, Tim was the Chief Financial Officer of Greenko
Group plc (AIM: GKO.L) a developer / owner / operator of renewable energy
biomass, hydro and wind assets in India. As CFO, Tim was responsible for
overseeing Greenko's pre-IPO funding, as well as its successful AIM IPO in
November 2007, 23 months after incorporation. Greenko now has a market
capitalisation of circa $275 million and is on track to delivering upon its
stated target of delivering 1,000MW of power by 2015.
Previously, Tim played a leading role in three other public companies. This
includes being joint COO / CFO Tim for IDOX plc, a leading software and services
provider to a UK local authority marketplace. Tim oversaw its AIM IPO in 2000 as
well as three further acquisitions and subsequent fund raisings and was
instrumental in developing the company's early stage growth.
Tim is a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants and has a
B.Sc (Econ) Hons. in accounting and financial management. His successful track
record in the Indian renewable energy sector, both at the State and Central
Government level, will provide the management expertise necessary for Clenergen
India Private Limited (a wholly owned subsidiary of Clenergen Corporation) to
achieve its short term target of 150MWe of Biomass Power Generation. Under the
terms of a 15 year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Power Trading Corporation
of India Limited (PTC), each MWe of electricity will generate on average, $1.4
million of gross revenue per annum.
Tim will direct Clenergen India Private Limited's acquisition of existing
operational biomass power plants, as well as joint ventures with major land
owners in India, where up to 30% increased profit will be generated through the
direct cultivation and supply of energy crops. The Company has sub let a site
near Tuticorin in the State of Tamil Nadu for the construction of a new 32MWe
Biomass power plant and has placed deposits on land within close proximity for
the cultivation of energy crops to supply biomass to the new facility.
Mark Quinn, Clenergen CEO, said "We identified Tim earlier this year as an ideal
candidate to join the Clenergen team. I am very pleased to announce Tim's
appointment as COO. Tim has broad, hands on experience of leading successful
growth companies, including securing funding either from debt of
equity. Tim also has strong international experience of the clean energy
generation industry and I look forward to working with Tim as Clenergen moves
into full operational mode."
Tim Bowen, said
"After a detailed evaluation of the renewable energy sector, Clenergen presented
the opportunity to achieve significant growth on a global scale. I believe that
the combination of supplying fuel (wood chips, wood pellets and transport fuel)
and sustainable renewable electricity, for both captive end users and regional
Government energy projects, is truly a compelling business model".
