Ministry of Justice Awards Contract for 52 Courts
Cinpart plc (AIM:CINP), announces that Active Energy Limited ("Active Energy"), its subsidiary company, has been awarded a contract by the Ministry of Justice ("MOJ"), one of the governments largest departments, as part of a multi phased tender process.
Under the terms of the contract Active Energy will provide and install 55 VoltageMaster units at 52 courts throughout England and Wales. It is expected that the units will be installed on or before 31 March 2010 and the installation work will be carried out by Southern Electric Contracting Limited ("SEC"). This follows the announcement in January 2010 of the MOU agreement, in which SEC is providing marketing, sale and installation of the VoltageMaster product as the preferred voltage optimisation device for its commercial clients.
The value of the 55 unit contract is approximately £900,000. Active Energy was invited to participate in the tender process, as a result of the performance of the VoltageMaster and its associated cost savings. Active Energy is currently tendering for additional MOJ sites, which form part of the Ministry of Justice's strategy to improve energy efficiencies.
Kevin Baker, Chief Executive of Cinpart, commented: "It is reassuring to see the MOJ placing such a priority on the importance of addressing energy efficiency and we are delighted to be able to provide the VoltageMaster product to assist the MOJ in reducing energy costs by up to 20 per cent per annum."
