Bangalore, India, December 18, 2007 -Green energy and clean technologies,
firmly positioned in the business mainstream as the next clean engine for economic
growth, will be center stage in Bangalore, October 16-19 2008, at the inaugural
energy conference and expo in Saltmarch Media\'s series of green energy initiatives.
Green Energy Summit 2008 is expected to draw thousands of key influencers in the
energy world including industries, investors, technologists, entrepreneurs,
academics, and high-profile speakers. Conference chair, Dilip Thomas, said about
Green Energy Summit:

\"With rapid strides in technology, economic pressures, high energy prices,
resource shortages,
environmental threats, and compliance imperatives driving unprecedented
growth in green energy, the
pressure on scientists, technologists, government and the industry to
develop and adopt new methods for
harnessing green energy has never been this overpowering. The renewable
energy market in India is
positioning itself as a major global player and offering the world\'s third
most attractive national environment
for investments. The first of its kind in India, Green Energy Summit 2008
will provide a unique platform for
debate, dialogue and action between research, academia, financial
organisations, entrepreneurs and
government bodies worldwide.\"

GREEN ENERGY CONFERENCE: PLUG INTO AN IMPACTFUL CONFERENCE
Green Energy Summit 2008 is a confluence of four tiers - Green Power, Green IT,
Green Buildings, Green Fuels - that, beyond bringing into picture those questions
that are most relevant for India at this juncture, will see a congregation of the
most intelligent minds and proactive organisations to create a sustained,
result-oriented mindset.

The four-day summit will include plenary sessions, demonstrations, panels and
keynote presentations that go beyond exploring path breaking initiatives,
technologies and products, by focusing on solutions that will accelerate the
production and adoption of viable, non-polluting forms of energy. It is an intimate,
collaborative event that encourages face-to-face exchange of ideas, recognises green
achievers, and provides showcasing and matchmaking opportunities for suppliers and
buyers, and delivers beyond classroom experiences.

Expected to attend are thousands of corporate CEOs & CFOs, renewable energy company
strategists, project developers, carbon investors, green semiconductor & data center
managers, building architects, PE investors, energy majors, government & regulatory
bodies, venture capitalists, and technology innovators among others.

Attendees will be treated to conference sessions that are in-depth, and offer a vast
array of subject matter from which to choose, including presentations by green
energy leaders and talks by key decision makers in India. There will be blue-sky
theorizing. But there will also be much more evidence-based, real-world practical
information.

The expo hallway, featuring the latest offerings from companies key to the renewable
energy market, will allow attendees to make connections and further knowledge.
Attend Green Energy Summit to understand the renewable energy market better,
decipher the roadmap for policy-making, learn best practices and case studies, and
connect with peers, industry experts, buyers and sellers, and influential leaders.

Green Energy Summit is built on many layers of conversation including:

§ Lively Expo Hallways: the expo features floor space for hundreds of companies
including Indian and International exhibitors from the US, Europe, Canada, Middle
East and Asia Pacific. Exhibitors will include manufacturers, builders, vendors and
investors of unconventional energy technology (solar, wind biofuel, thermal),
enterprise hardware & software technology vendors, semiconductor companies,
financial institutions, venture capitalists and government bodies.
§ Green Energy Awards: a first-of-its-kind ceremony that honors winners across a
range of categories in the Green Energy arena. The awards throw the spotlight on
trailblazing individuals and organizations in the Indian green energy sector. To
