ZBB Energy Corporation (NYSE MKT: ZBB), the leading developer of intelligent, renewable energy power platforms and hybrid vehicle control systems, today announced that ZBB President and CEO, Eric Apfelbach, has been invited for the second consecutive year to serve the Clinton Global Initiative as a member of the Renewable & Distributed Energy Working Group.
Taking place this week in Chicago, the Clinton Global Initiative http://www.cgiamerica.org is an annual event focused on finding solutions that promote economic recovery in the United States. This working meeting brings together leaders from the business, foundation, NGO, and government sectors to develop solutions that increase employment, advance access to education and skills development, strengthen energy security, and promote an environment for business growth and innovation.
Mr. Apfelbach serves on the Renewable and Distributed Energy Working Group www.cgiamerica.org/workinggroups, the purpose of which is to advance the adoption of innovative, cost-effective renewable and distributed energy solutions, including solar, wind, and grid enabling technologies. As the U.S. moves toward a cleaner, more diverse energy portfolio, electricity markets will need to accommodate new sources of power and adapt to an increasingly distributed grid system. Localized energy resources, known as distributed energy, reduce the need for expensive transmission, increase the reliability and security of the electric system, and contribute to local economic development. This Working Group is comprised of companies, utilities, financiers, government, and NGOs coming together to identify new renewable and distributed energy projects and models, scale existing programs, and build collaborative partnerships.
