Partnership with First Utility

JSJS Designs Plc ("JSJS" or "the Company"), the home automation specialists, announces a partnership with fast growing utility supplier, First Utility.

Under the non-exclusive agreement eligible consumers will receive a free LightwaveRF Wifi Link and energy monitor when they sign up to First Utility Standard v4 Fixed tariff. There will also be the option to purchase further LightwaveRF products via First Utility.

The Government's vision is for every home in Great Britain to have smart energy meters, with business and public sector users also having smart or advanced energy metering suited to their needs. Energy suppliers will be responsible for replacing over 53 million gas and electricity meters, involving visits to 30 million homes and small businesses. The mass roll-out of smart meters is expected to start in 2014 and to be completed in 2019. JSJS believes that its LightwaveRF range of products (which does not currently include a smart energy meter) and their associated benefits are aligned with this vision.

Mike Lord JSJS's Chairman and CEO commented

"This is a great strategic development for our business and an important route to the mass market for our integrated range of home automation, security and energy management products. We continue to add to our growing list of blue chip customers which now include Siemens, B&Q, Screwfix, Maplin, QVC and City Electrical Factors and we expect that our new business pipeline will continue to see further additions over the next few months."

About JSJS Designs

JSJS Designs develops home automation systems to enable consumers to remotely operate everyday household appliances such as lighting, heating, air conditioning, door entry, audio, video and security. The Company is targeting the potentially significant mass market as consumers increasingly seek to "retro-fit" smart home technologies into their homes and, in the longer term, the "extra care" residential market where there is demand from the providers of such schemes to enable independent living for the elderly and physically immobile.
