EmberClear Develops Second Power Plant

Good Spring NGCC 2 Represents 300 MW of Reliable Power Generation to Northeast USA

CALGARY, Nov. 13, 2012 /CNW/ - EmberClear Corp. (TSXV: EMB) ("EmberClear") is pleased to announce it has filed key documents with regulators and regional transmission operators for a 300 MW natural gas based electricity power plant in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania.

EmberClear intends to develop Good Spring NGCC 2, a natural gas combined cycle electricity plant capable of serving 300,000 or more households in the Northeastern USA. Site control, feasibility, and PJM-interconnection filings have been accomplished and EmberClear plans to complete all necessary permitting requirements in the coming months. Similar to the original Good Spring NGCC 1 electricity plant, the most advanced and proven turbine technologies available will be incorporated to yield industry leading operating efficiencies. Good Spring NGCC1 and Good Spring NGCC 2 rate 20% more efficient than an average natural gas power plant and 38% more efficient than the average coal fired plant, according to the US Department of Energy EIA 2010 results.

Good Spring NGCC 2 benefits greatly from the experience and relationships obtained during the development of Good Spring NGCC 1. Similar engineering, regulatory requirements, natural gas supplies, pipelines, grid interconnection, and labour market conditions result in meaningful speed and cost savings to take advantage of recent market trends such as the availability and price of natural gas, electricity pricing, and decommissioning coal based power plants in this region of the United States.

"Utilizing our project development methods in this repeatable fashion improves the financial returns, lowers the execution risks, and accelerates the speed to a sale. Our business techniques leverage America's abundance of natural gas and meshes nicely with the intensifying demand for reliable energy," explained Albert Lin, CEO of EmberClear.

James Palumbo, President of EmberClear Power Pennsylvania Inc. ("EPPI") added, "Good Spring NGCC 1 is preparing for construction and undergoing the normal sales process for a developer. Having Good Spring NGCC 2 follow in its footsteps will benefit everyone. We look forward to extending the years of continued community and regulatory support for our efforts with this new project."

As in the case with Good Spring NGCC 1, when construction begins for Good Spring NGCC 2, it could employ approximately 500 workers for two years culminating in dozens of full time positions for plant operations. The economic impact to the surrounding area is expected to be more than $1 billion over 15 years.
