Press Release Summary: Meet Green Edge Systems Inc., at the Emerging Energy
Technology Summit, University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB) February 8-9, 2008
to learn about its dynamic energy management dashboard software and the GreenGuard
sensor platforms.

Press Release Body: Woodland Hills, CA , February 4, 2008-- Green Edge Systems,
Inc., a cutting edge provider of real time energy savings, predictive maintenance
and temperature monitoring solutions for campuses, schools, hospitals, presents its
GreenGuard state-of-the-art hardware products, software and communication platforms.
Meet Green Edge Systems, Inc. at the Emerging Energy technology Summit, Corwin
Pavilion, University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB), Santa Barbara, CA, on
February 8-9 2008.

GreenGuard continuously monitors the savings and the actual energy and maintenance
bills and helps deliver increased ROI, boosting savings with a continuous
improvement approach.

The hardware products are comprised of a variety of powerline, wireless, wired and
stand-alone low cost introductory products, making it affordable to any size campus.
Two way communications allow automated control of devices in response to price, peak
load shaving or demand reduction signals.

The software platform utilizes advanced Business Intelligence (BI) tools that allow
dynamic energy management, effective demand response, peak load shaving management,
energy savings, predictive maintenance and temperature monitoring in one integrated
system.

This platform allows implementation of demand response, peak shaving, Carbon-Trade
and other future energy efficiency, energy savings and greenhouse gas
incentive-based programs.

Initial energy and maintenance savings of over 20 percent, achieved by the basic
system, allows its introduction into campuses, with savings that are much higher
than the initial investment in its first year. The savings in following years remain
with the customers. The communication and management platform allows the addition of
any current and future energy saving systems as an additional module.

The GreenGuard sensor platform includes a family of state-of-the-art wireless
sensors with the following features:

. Wireless Data logging
. Internal Relative Humidity/Temp sensors
. 4 recording inputs: 4-20mA, 0-1V, Pulse counter, PT100 2-wires, NTC,
Thermocouple J, K and T, door sensors
. Dry contact in each wireless sensor

Other sensors in the GreenGuard family are:

. A wired logging device - ideal for smaller installations
. A low cost USB temperature recording device that allows 24/7 temperature
monitoring at a cost per location with two measuring points of under $200 per
location
. Multiple input temperature recorder and refrigeration controller
. Multiple input temperature recorder, refrigeration, air conditioning and
lighting controller

In multi location installations such as in school districts, a mixture of the above
sensors can be installed, all managed through advanced dashboard application
software.

To better understand the uniqueness of Green Edge Systems offerings, ask any
provider of energy, maintenance and temperature monitoring solutions if they can
provide the following GreenGuard capabilities:

. Monitoring and controlling of energy usage and saving, resulting in up to 20%
energy savings
. Immediate alerts when the refrigeration system is not working or malfunctioning.
. Prediction of compressor or other system failures with alerts to avoid critical
damage, similar to the red warning light in your car before a critical engine
failure. We provide the same type of alerts when compressors are about to fail, with
no additional equipment. Would you buy a car without this feature? Can you afford
buying a monitoring system for your refrigeration system without this feature?
. Immediate power outage alert with no additional equipment.
. Highly affordable - starting at under $200 per location, provides 24/7
temperature recording, reporting and alerts.
. Wireless sensors that fully implement the Zigbee Mesh Networking Protocol
-superior to Zigbee in a point-to-point mode which may fail with future network
saturation.
. Bi-directional communication between the system and the sensors, allowing for
seamless setting of sensors to new parameters such as immediate response on
momentary door openings nights and weekends, different parameters of temperature
settings for night and weekends, use of lower priced energy at night and more.
. Over-the-network firmware updates, eliminating the need for on-site technician.
. Calibration of the sensors over the network.
. Temperature readout on each sensor, gateway and repeater.
. Temperature and door opening samplings, customer-configurable, even once per
minute or less, allowing for better control of food quality, alerts and more.
. Local alerts even when the network is down.
. Power backup on each sensor - sensors continue to collect data, even if battery
fails or if power is out.
. Low cost repeaters to extend range of coverage.
. Multiple input sensors - more then 4 inputs per sensor.
. Every sensor has its own Dry Contact, allowing connectivity to a
building/HVAC/energy management system. Detailed alerts from each sensors are
provided even if the network in down.
. Data is never lost in a power outage and there is no need for uninterruptible
power supply (UPS).
. Prevention of unnecessary defrost cycles.
. Monitoring food temperatures in addition to air temperatures.

To arrange a meeting at the Summit and view the dashboard software that monitors the
energy savings, predictive maintenance, temperature monitoring and the various
elements of the GreenGuard sensor platform and for additional information on
GreenGuard, please contact Green Edge Systems, Inc. Tel. 818-825-8167.
