VPHASE SIGN UP TO BE OFFICIAL SPONSOR OF MYLOCALELECTRICIAN.CO.UK By Matt Cody @ 13th Jun 2011 11:30:59





Business Feeds
In an exciting industry development, VPhase has now signed as the official sponsor of MyLocalElectrician.co.uk (MLE); a move which recognises the importance of electricians and the electrical contracting sector in the domestic voltage optimisation market.

The move is a first of its kind for both companies and demonstrates the strong relationships VPhase has formed in the industry. "MLE is a leading online destination for electricians, trainee electricians and consumers looking for electricians, so it's an ideal organisation for VPhase to be associated with", comments Matt Cody, Head of Marketing at VPhase. "As the VPhase voltage optimisation device must be fitted by a qualified electrician, being involved with an electrically oriented web site such as MLE made great commercial sense", concludes Matt.

VPhase also continues to run regional free, NAPIT approved training seminars throughout the UK to help support the growing network of electricians that understand voltage optimisation and how it can benefit consumers at the same time as adding value to their jobs. Available nationally, the device is a fit and forget solution, offering consumers the opportunity to instantly start saving as appliances use less electricity and therefore cost less to run. Proven to save between 6% and 12% off electricity bills, the money savings will continue to improve as electricity prices continue to increase, so it's a product that offers an improving return on investment too.

Gary Pratten, MD at MyLocalElectrician.co.uk stated, "I'm very excited about bringing VPhase on board, as it represents the culmination of a lot of hard work building the MLE site. All of the industry news, directories, blogs and helpful information on the site are now complemented by having VPhase as the official sponsor " and I'm pleased to say that the interest this has generated continues to increase daily".

Notes to Editors:

VPhase plc provides a product that reduces the energy consumption of many domestic electrical appliances.

The VPhase device:
attaches to the consumer unit (fuse box) and regulates the voltage from the UK average of 245V down to a set level, typically, 220 volts;
is low cost, with a payback generally under 5 years;
easy to fit by any qualified electrician;
saves money from the moment of installation, with no need for behavioural changes;
enables many appliances to work more efficiently; and
reduces electricity usage and carbon emissions.

Independently verified tests by VPhase have demonstrated that the product can typically save between 6% and 12% of the electricity across a range of domestic products including fridges, freezers, central heating pumps, televisions and other items, even 'energy-saving' light bulbs. This should equate to savings for the typical household of between £40 and £135 per annum.

In addition, there is evidence that the life of electrical appliances can be extended by the use of this product; light bulbs, in particular, have demonstrated at least two times longer life when on a circuit managed by the voltage optimisation product as compared to those without the product.

My sympathy re ASOS. I got out 50% higher than you, which sounds very smug until you look at the price now.

For the life of me, I don't know how you could really know at the time that you should hold on, except for taking a decision purely on principle to hold for ever.

I fully expected their market share and profits to be severely dented, once the other retailers got into the celebrity theme. Also, I happen to hate 'celebrityness' and its vacuous wasting of peoples time and lives, watching and reading about the little preciousses. No doubt that tainted my investment in that inwardly I hoped it would come crashing down.

As I keep saying to my kids, you've got to find something that you are interested in and that makes you happy, because there will always be someone better known, with more money, or a better car, or a larger house etc. etc. So you can never be happy or content pursuing that route. I don't think they're listening though ;-(

o/t on a grumpy morning.

(I wouldn't mind them aspiring to be a Nobel prize winner though)

Looked in here ages ago and had a tiff with MJ who seems unable to let go for some reason. Been watching it for signs of life, but I don't like their blingy PR.

Never heard of mylocalelectrician site and neither has my electrician.

They seem a bit confused: offering a website money doesn't demonstrate a strong industrial relationship. It demonstrates that if you offer a website money in sponsorship, they'll tend to accept it thank you very much.

This is b.....ks imo:

"growing network of electricians that understand voltage optimisation and how it can benefit consumers at the same time as adding value to their jobs."

Not when most workmen are struggling because others are cutting their quotes just to bring a few jobs in and stay in business.

What's this:

"represents the culmination of a lot of hard work building the MLE site."

Has it only just been built then ? If so, not exactly going to get a flood of enquiries to VPhase.

Energy sector big hitter in as Energetix chairman
23rd May 2011

By Chris Barry - Editor, North West

Clare Spottiswoode, new chairman of alernative energy specialist Energetix

CLARE Spottiswoode, the former director general of Ofgas the gas regulator, has joined North West alternative energy developer Energetix as non executive chairman.

As a result Alan Aubrey has stepped aside as chairman, but remains on the board as a non-executive director at the AIM-listed Cheshire company.

Clare Spottiswoode said: "I am very pleased to be joining Energetix at this critical time of its development as it moves from technology innovator to a commercial sales organisation.

"I have been impressed by the products which have the potential to make a serious contribution to energy efficiency in the home and cost-effectively reduce customers' energy bills.

"I look forward to working with Adrian (ceo Adrian Hutchings) and his team to make sure that each of the products achieves the commercial success they deserve and help address many of the UK's energy problems at the same time."

A mathematician by training Ms Spottiswoode is currently a member of the Independent Commission on Banking.

After her spell at the helm of Ofgas she was a policyholder advocate for Norwich Union's with-profits policyholders at Aviva where she negotiated a special bonus worth approximately £2.1 billion to 1.1m of its with-profits policyholders as well as other payments.

She is currently Chairman of Gas Strategies Group, a non-executive director of the FTSE 100 security company G4S plc, EnergySolutions Inc. and Illika plc, and until recently a non-executive director of the FTSE 100 oil company Tullow Oil.

In other changes at the Capenhurst-based firm Rick Smith, interim chief financial officer of Energetix, has stood down from the board to focus on his duties as chief executive of sister company VPhase.

VPhase is the energy efficiency business created by Energetix and subsequently spun out in 2010. Energetix owns around 43% of VPhase which is now a standalone, independently funded commercial venture.

Energetix will seek to appoint a new chief financial officer in due course and in the meantime the current finance team, set up by Rick and in place since 2006, will meet the current demands of this role whilst a replacement is recruited.

Adrian Hutchings, chief executive of Energetix, said: "We are naturally very pleased to have attracted someone with Clare's calibre, expertise and knowledge of the markets which Energetix is addressing.

"Clare's appointment comes at a key time for Energetix which, with all technology development now completed, is moving into commercialisation.

"It is the huge potential of our products that attracted Clare and her main focus at Energetix will be to help us prepare and execute a commercialisation strategy that takes full advantage of this potential."

She is currently chairman of Gas Strategies Group Limited, a non-executive director of the FTSE 100 security company G4S, EnergySolutions and Illika, and until recently a non-executive director of the FTSE 100 oil company Tullow Oil.

The company's A.G.M.Leaves me scrachting my head and no doubt many others as the complete absence of debate on this bored regarding all the resolutions the implications of those resolutions ect ect .

It is not all together any surprise as much is said then qualified with a ref to the companies act and your basically left none the wiser,such is the skill of the writer to say a great deal of legal waffle whilst at all times ensuring the investors in the main are left compleatly in the dark ,which is the intention in any event.

Goberly Goo has become a national disese and particulary where investments are concerned Banks,Insurance, legal doccuments all suffer from this chronic disese of Goberly Goo,in the vanacular.

There is no room for this in a fresh air democracy with clear vision just why do people stay quite on this plague that,s blighting the lives of millions STEP OUT and ?

SURPORT THE PLAIN ENGLISH GALLOPING OLIMPICS FRESH AIR SOCIETY.

Oh it was the day after my post lol! :)

[typo56] 19/5/2011 12:13

I believe so Melton, but I'm certainly no expert.

Pretty basic AGM statement:

"VPhase plc, a leading developer of energy saving products for residential and commercial properties, is pleased to announce that at the Company's Annual General Meeting held today, all resolutions were duly passed."

Anyone here make it to Manchester? Was there any "deal news prior to the AGM"? If so, I missed it.

[melton john] 19/5/2011 11:44

So if you don't buy over 30% and are obliged to make a bid under those rules, you can make a bid at any price you like, is that correct?

[typo56] 18/5/2011 18:33

Transforma, a bidder (hoho) only needs to offer the highest price they've paid during the past six (?) months, not the highest market price. So if they only bought at 1.1p a few days ago, that's the lowest price they must bid.

Edit 19 May'11 - 09:20
The above is gibberish! I confused with the mandatory bid rule where the period is, I believe, 12 months.

[melton john] 18/5/2011 18:14

Transforma, you're making that up.
