WorldWater Corp. Signs to Install Largest Solar Pump in the World —
Proprietary AquaMax will Drive 300 HP Compressor Pump for Food Processing Refrigeration; Second Major Contract in 6 Weeks to Supply California Agriculture Market with Proprietary High Powered Solar Pumping Systems
PENNINGTON, NJ, October 1/PR NEWSWIRE/

WorldWater Corp. OTC BB:WWAT.OB, announced today it has signed a contract for $891,000 to drive a 300 horsepower compressor pumping system with its proprietary AquaMax(TM) solar technology.

“The unit will operate a HydraCooler for processing food at the Lehr Brothers Inc. farm in Edison, California,” said Quentin T. Kelly, Chairman and CEO of WorldWater. “Our newly developed solar power technology enabling us to drive pump systems up to 600 horsepower is opening the mainstream power market to us, particularly in energy and air quality-conscious states. California is first, but farms and water utilities in other states as well are contacting us,” he added.

Agriculture, water utilities and refrigeration are prime markets for the high-powered solar pumping systems, according to Kelly.

The AquaMax™ operates alone or in combination with the electric grid or diesel generators, and has the added values of cleaning up the air and the environment as well as “net metering” (saving unused self-generated solar electricity and `banking' it with the electric utility for later use - literally running the meter backwards,) reducing demand on the utility grid, according to Dr. Anand Rangarajan, Executive Vice President of WorldWater.

“The Lehr solar HydraCooler sytem should be in operation by December of this year”, he added.

WorldWater announced its first sale ($287,000) of the proprietary AquaMax™ in August to drive a 50 horsepower irrigation pump and light up outer buildings of the D.T. Locke Ranch in Firebaugh, California. It is expected to begin operating in late October.

Last month, that sale represented the largest solar pumping system to be scheduled for installation, but the new HydraCooler pump is six times larger than that, declared Kelly. The Company is currently in negotiation for even larger systems (500 hp) with other large farms, municipal water utilities and wineries.

The system was introduced by WorldWater at the WorldAg Expo in Tulare, California in February and then demonstrated at the California State Fair (Farm Demo area) in August. State agriculture, water resources and air quality officials are in continuing communication with WorldWater for potential uses throughout California, according to Kelly.

WorldWater is a solar engineering and water management engineering company active in developing countries around the world, introducing its technology for drinking water and irrigation as well as electrical power for use in municipalities and rural areas.

The company is especially active in the Philippines, where its wholly owned subsidiary, WorldWater (Phils) Inc., has signed agreements for major irrigation and municipal water delivery for programs scheduled for implementation over several years.

WorldWater Corp. Signs Ground Breaking Contract to Enter California Agriculture Market with Powerful Solar Irrigation Systems — Company’s Hybrid "AquaMax™ 2200" Will Drive 50 HP Irrigation Pump for the D.T Locke Ranch in Fertile San Joaquin Valley…. First and Only Solar Pumping System Powerful Enough to Operate 600 HP Motors
PENNINGTON, NJ, August 14/PR NEWSWIRE/

WorldWater Corp. OTC BB:WWAT.OB, announced today it has broken new ground for the world solar industry by signing the first contract to supply powerful solar irrigation pumps to the California agriculture market.

The company’s hybrid solar water pumping system, "AquaMax™ 2002", will begin operating on the D.T. Locke Ranch in Firebaugh, California this fall following signatures by rancher Daneward Locke and Chairman and CEO Quentin T. Kelly of WorldWater Corp., manufacturer and marketer of the proprietary high volume system.

This first system will drive a 50 hp motor for irrigation and some lighting and is being purchased from WorldWater for $287,000, with the buyer then benefiting from a rebate from PG&E, the utility company, and availability of tax credits from the State of California and the Federal Government, Mr. Kelly said. The hybrid "AquaMax™" can run pumps up to 600 hp, he added, and will supply that power alone or as a hybrid in automatic combination with the electric grid or with diesel generators. WorldWater can now arrange turnkey financing for the farmers through a lease-to-purchase program, he said.

"This is a very important development in many ways – technologically, economically, environmentally – because it opens a vast new market for these high energy solar products supplying a high energy-demanding industry," said Mr. Kelly. "California’s requirements for agricultural power are enormous, but until now, with this proprietary WorldWater system, solar could not play a serious role. "AquaMax™" offers a whole new approach and a significant change in the economics and air quality of irrigation and power pumping for farms, ranches, wineries, dairy and cattle farms and water districts."

A model of a similiar system will be demonstrated at the California State Fair Farm Demo Exhibit in Sacramento from August 16 to September 2.

The Locke farm is located in the heart of the San Joaquin Valley, which contributes approximately 50% of vegetables and fruits supplied in the U.S. Mr. Kelly said his company is currently in negotiations with several other farmers, wineries and water districts in the region.

WorldWater Corp. Ships First AQUACARD™ - Smart Card Systems to Philippines to Begin Rural Water Utility Service – By Application of New Card, Communities are Able to Borrow from Banks to Build Water Utility Service for the First Time
PENNINGTON, NJ, June 10/PR NEWSWIRE/

WorldWater Corp. (OTC BB:WWAT.OB, has shipped the first production models of its proprietary “AquaCard™” (Smart Card) and “AquaMeter™” systems to the island province of Cebu in the Philippines to initiate utility water service in communities, according to the Company Chairman and CEO Quentin T. Kelly.

The new debit card systems operate directly with WorldWater’s solar water pumping stations in the community, Mr. Kelly said. Residents insert the cards into the AquaMeters™ which then deliver the requested number of liters of clean drinking water from the solar pump near by. The microchip on the card reads when the card needs to be recharged by the customer at the community bank. The user can purchase up to 1000 liters per charge at a cost-per-liter significantly less than he must pay for water from other sources, Mr. Kelly explained.

The bank then turns over the money to the community government, which uses the funds to pay back the loan used to purchase the equipment and installation from WorldWater.

“The process enables small communities to borrow funds from banks for clean water utility service for the people for the first time,” said Dr. Anand Rangarajan, Exec. VP of WorldWater. “These cards actually mean the development of a new economy for rural areas. Ronda, in central Cebu, is the first community to make use of our program -- we have several other communities expected to follow Ronda and, because of its practical economies, believe the number will eventually become hundreds, possibly thousands, not only in the Philippines but in developing countries all over the world.”

WorldWater established the “smart card” as a financing solution for community water production as well as a method to remove problems associated with the payment collection process, Mr. Kelly added. Communities recover their costs of supplying the equipment purchased from WorldWater and are able to offer a more standardized utility service. WorldWater maintains a carrying charge of some 10 per cent net of the card gross for service charges during the life of the contract (currently 10 years).

“After fully establishing this Water Utility Program, we will alter the microchip on the AquaCard™ to make it a PowerCard™ and supply the same service for rural electricity to be generated by our solar systems,” Mr. Kelly said.

The Company expects to implement the system in other countries where it currently has business operations or will be operating.

WorldWater Corporation Chairman Quentin T. Kelly Will Address the New York Society of Security Analysts at its Alternative Energy Industry Conference
PENNINGTON, NJ, April 9/PR NEWSWIRE/

WorldWater Corp. (OTC BB:WWAT.OB - news), announced today that Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Quentin T. Kelly will be presenting several recent advances in solar technology to the New York Society of Security Analysts at the Sixth Annual Alternative Energy Industry Conference.

The conference will take place at the City Athletic Club, 50 West 54th Street, in New York City on Thursday, June 13, 2002. His presentation will commence at 3:30 p.m.

Mr. Kelly, the only representative of the solar industry among the featured speakers, will talk about the unprecedented opportunities in both domestic and international markets for new solar technology, particularly WorldWater’s powerful solar driven irrigation pumps. These AquaMax™ systems can drive the largest irrigation delivery systems, including pivots which require 100 horsepower or more, thus sharply decreasing the demand for electrical grid power. Additionally, the hybrid AquaMax™ works interchangeably with the grid or with diesel generators, automatically switching back and forth to the appropriate power source, using sunshine during the day and the grid or diesel at night as required.

“This opens up a huge new market for renewable energy,” Mr. Kelly said in discussing the upcoming speech. “Solar was always considered too weak and too expensive for mainstream power requirements, but these new WorldWater developments take it out of the so-called niche market and place it squarely in the front line of power delivery,” he declared. “People in the market place, particularly in areas like California, are just now learning about these developments.”

Mr. Kelly will provide the Security Analysts with an overview of WorldWater Corp. and its role as a full service solar engineering and water management engineering company. WorldWater’s solar pumps and solar electrical systems deliver clean water and electricity to users in developing countries, particularly the Philippines and soon Afghanistan.

But the recent energy difficulties in the U.S. have changed some of the Company’s focus, Mr. Kelly said, citing its growing irrigation power business in two states, California and New Jersey, with sales opportunities now developing in several others.

The company produces and markets the patented AquaSafe™ and AquaMax™ 2200 solar water pumps, delivering volumes from great depths or surface water from 5 gallons per minute for drinking to more than 2000 gallons per minute for irrigation. The company’s other solar electric products include lanterns, power packs for camping, lights and AquaMeter™ SmartCards for automatic debiting of water purchase charges.

The conference will give those attending an opportunity to listen to senior executives from leading alternative energy companies discuss how they are commercializing alternative energy sources such as solar power, fuel cells and wind power.

WorldWater Corp. Introduces Hybrid Solar Pump System - Works With Existing Electrical Grid or Diesel Generators — Breakthrough “AquaMax ” Hybrid Can Operate Pumps up to 600 HP, Operating Alone or in Combination with Other Generators — Introduced at California's ‘World Ag Expo,’ Feb. 12-14, World's Largest Agricultural Show
PENNINGTON, NJ, Feb 5/PR NEWSWIRE/

WorldWater Corp. (OTC BB:WWAT.OB - news), ttoday announced it will introduce its newly developed hybrid solar irrigation pumping system at California's ``World Ag Expo'' Feb. 12-14.

“This new hybrid, AquaMax™ , is a true breakthrough in terms of both power and flexibility,” said Quentin T. Kelly, Chairman and CEO of WorldWater, the international solar engineering and water management company based in New Jersey. “It will work alone or interchangeably with existing grid electricity or diesel generators and operate pumps up to 600 HP, contributing significantly to a farmer's bottom line by cutting electrical or fuel costs whenever the sun is shining, which also happens to be the peak cost period for grid users,” he said.

“The AquaMax™ will be extremely useful for farmers and ranchers anywhere, of course, but we’re introducing it in California because of the high energy costs there and the resultant efforts by the State to encourage renewable power usage by rebates and tax incentives, hoping to reduce demand on the grid,” Mr. Kelly added.

The system’s newly patented AquaDrive™ controller makes it possible for the first time for solar technology to run powerful off-the-shelf AC pumps, capable of driving large irrigation pivots or drip irrigation systems, according to the Company’s Executive Vice President, Dr. Anand Rangarajan. “Other solar pumps are generally limited to 5 HP, so this is a major technological advance,” he declared.

“The hybrid system also ensures that the daily water requirement for irrigation, or municipal water supply, for that matter, is supplied irrespective of the weather conditions, even when there is a low level of sunshine during winter or rainy seasons,” Dr. Rangarajan stated.

“The AquaDrive™ controller converts solar DC current to AC, then supplies the AC power to the pump from either the solar array or the grid or diesel generator or simultaneously from both sources,” he said. “Because of its power, the AquaMax™ system could supply over 50% of many farmers or ranchers’ annual needs by solar alone. The hybrid operation is programmed and completely automatic, and thus manual intervention is not required to switch from one power source to the other.”

WBrenda G. Bergman Named Project Manager of WorldWater Corp. Philippine Operations – Projects Include $52 Million Solar Agricultural Development and $10 Million Rural Water and Power Utility Solar Program in Island Communities of Cebu
PENNINGTON, NJ, January 7 /PR NEWSWIRE/

In line with its rapid development of mainstream solar power projects in the Philippines, WorldWater Corp.(OTC BB:WWAT.OB - news) today announced the promotion of Brenda G. Bergman to the new position of Project Manager of Philippine Operations.

Starting immediately, WorldWater Corp. Chairman and CEO Quentin T. Kelly announced she will be posted to Manila to commence operations on the Company's major projects using its proprietary solar technology. The projects include the recently signed $52 Million agricultural development program and the $10 Million rural utility program for communities in the island province of Cebu, both projects starting this month.

First phase of the $52 Million program is a WorldWater engineering and economic study, funded by the US Trade and Development Agency, designed to create a basic groundwater map, establish appropriate irrigation technology and measure the economic impact of the program. Following completion of the study in June, the WorldWater solar equipment will be installed over a period of two years, according to Mr. Kelly. This major agricultural development project will have a sovereign guarantee by the Philippine Government and 100% financing by PNC Bank of Philadelphia, backed by US Export-Import Bank, he declared. The rural water utility programs will be funded by the communities themselves with long-term loans from Philippine banks, he said.

WorldWater's powerful solar pumps can deliver more that 2000 gallons of irrigation water per minute, Mr. Kelly said, adding that this capability is some 10 times more powerful than other solar water pumps in the world.

Dr. Anand Rangarajan, WorldWater Corp. Executive Vice President, stated, ``Our activities are developing very quickly over there and we needed to add American executives to our increasingly busy Philippine staff to coordinate the multiplying business affairs between the parent corporation and our subsidiary,'' he added. Ms. Bergman will report to John Herrman, WorldWater Philippines' new President who left for Manila last week to guide Company operations, he said.

Ms. Bergman is a former Fulbright Scholar who has worked on water related programs in several southern African countries, particularly Zimbabwe, and for WorldWater in the Philippines. She is a 1998 Summa Cum Laude graduate of Boston College and is working on-line toward her Masters in Water Resource Engineering from Loughborough University in England.
