Sensile Technologies SA Presents Latest Telemetry Unit: NETRIS® The Swiss company Sensile Technologies SA is the first company worldwide to incorporate Telit’s GE865-QUAD modem into a newly launched product featuring a host of new benefits. Their autonomous telemetry units are installed on tanks or connected to existing meters and regularly transmits tank level measurements via the GSM network to a central server. The customer can monitor consumption in each tank via a secured webpage or an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, and so optimize purchases and deliveries. This reduces logistics costs, improves customer service and binding, and ensures that the tanks never run dry. Sensile Technologies currently monitors more than 25 000 tanks across Europe, and also has systems installed in Africa, Asia, Australia and South America. The new system, NETRIS®, features an improved and registered design that makes it even easier to install, largely due to the small size of the GE865-QUAD modem. Being quad band, the modem is also allowing Sensile Technologies to expand to new countries around the world. Other improvements include a longer operational life of up to 10 years and the ability to connect to other units via an RF (Radio Frequency) link. Customer feedback so far has been overwhelmingly positive. “NETRIS® is the outcome of Sensile Technologies’ 10 years of experience combined with a successful collaboration with Telit” declares Jean-Marc Uehlinger, Operational Director. “Both companies have a similar view of and approach to the M2M business, and common core values of constant innovation, clear strategy, customer satisfaction, and craving for perfection.” This year, Sensile Technologies is celebrating its 10th anniversary with the launch of the NETRIS®. Furthermore, in order to sustain its growth, the Headquarter has been moved in brand new spacious premises located in Morges, Switzerland.

AES Solar Energy Closes Project Financing for 43 MW Photovoltaic Project in Italy AES Solar Energy Ltd, a joint venture between The AES Corporation and Riverstone Holdings LLC, announced that one of its subsidiaries closed on long-term project financing facilities of €173 million to finance the construction of the Cellino San Marco (CSM) project, a 43 MW solar photovoltaic (PV) facility located in the Puglia region of Italy. CSM is the largest solar PV project in Italy to reach financial close. A total of five banks participated in this financing: Société Générale (as Documentation, Technical & Modeling Bank and Hedging Coordinator), Unicredit Mediocredito Centrale (as Documentation Bank), BNP Paribas (as Insurance Bank), Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank and Dexia Crediop (as Agent). SACE is taking this opportunity to step up its involvement in financing solar PV projects, participating via providing a guarantee for a portion of Société Générale’s commitment. The facilities cover approximately 85% of estimated project costs at completion and the final maturity date is 18 years post construction. Massimiliano Battisti, a Managing Director at Société Générale, one of the coordinating banks in this transaction remarked, “While the Italian regulatory environment makes solar PV a highly attractive investment, its dynamics make innovative financing solutions necessary. This poses a significant barrier to entry for less sophisticated investors. In this environment we believe that it is very important to have partners like AES Solar who are among the most experienced sponsors in this sector, as they have both the industry and the financial expertise as well as the ability to understand the subtleties of the local market to enable them to successfully deliver the project.” Construction on the project is underway and the project is expected to reach commercial operation by the end of 2010, qualifying it for a 20-year regulated feed-in tariff under the “Conto Energia” scheme. CSM will use First Solar thin film panels. The addition of the 43 MW CSM will more than double the global operating portfolio of AES Solar, which currently includes 38 MW across France, Greece and Spain.
