Energy Technologies Group, LLC Unveils Experimental Model

For New Wireless Security and Energy-Saving System

--Uses patent-pending wireless digital technology and is only system of its kind

--Designed for hotels, but also suited to offices, stores, hospitals, labs, schools and homes

--Saves up to 40 percent per month in energy costs

ALIQUIPPA, PA (September 13, 2002) – Energy Technologies Group, LLC recently unveiled a long-awaited experimental model of its first-of-a-kind system that combines in-room security with energy cost reduction. The Webb Law Firm, Downtown Pittsburgh, PA, has helped Energy Technologies Group, LLC, Aliquippa, PA, to file for patent protection for its innovation.

Wireless digital technology

provides unparalleled security

and energy savings.

Energy Technologies Group, LLC is the only company to use patent-pending wireless digital technology. The patent-pending Energy Saving Security System provides a new, higher level of security for hotel or motel guests who leave their rooms and may worry about potential intruders. At the same time, it enables hotel/motel management to reduce energy consumption in rooms during periods when

guests are away.

The system uses wireless technology with a smart card

and chip card to combine security and energy-savings in one

package. A guest can activate and deactivate the system with

his room door key, which he inserts in a card reader located in

the hotel room near the door.

Data stored on the door key card are transmitted

in a real time, wireless manner to the hotel office.

§ When a guest exits his room, he removes the door key from a card reader. This action turns on the security system, which uses an infrared process to detect body heat and physical presence. At the same time, the Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning (HVAC) unit is set back to a “five minutes on, 15 minutes off” cycle. Electrical outlets are also de-activated for additional cost savings.

§ When a guest returns to his room, he inserts the door key in the card reader and disarms the security system. The HVAC unit returns to its original settings and electrical outlets resume function.

At all times, hotel management can determine electronically whether a room is occupied or vacant. Management is alerted if an incorrect card is inserted in a reader and can send personnel to check any breach of security. In the case of fire or catastrophe, they can evacuate rooms quickly.

While directed to the hotel/motel and lodging industry, the system can be designed for additional commercial applications including cruise ships, stores, offices, hospitals, schools, supply facilities and homes.

“We offer peace of mind for hotel guests and new levels of profitability for the lodging industry. Cost savings can be as high as 40 percent of monthly energy bills,” said Jim Biskup, president, Energy Technologies Group, LLC. “For the past two years, the American Hotel and Lodging Association, of which we are allied members, has been asking us for our prototypes. They believe our innovations will revolutionize the industry and we are ready to

do just that.

“We have the ability to change the economy of the industry as a whole – by providing a complete security system for each individual room, monitoring each room, and using software to control the HVAC from the front desk. Our technology uses state of the art, real time data recorded 24/7 for every room of property. It’s affordable and provides a return on investment in less than 24 months.”

Rick Byrne and Randy Notzen, attorneys and shareholders, The Webb Law Firm, explained it was important for Energy Technologies Group to protect its new system. Byrne said, “By breaking the paradigms that room security and energy control are separate functions, the new system offers a higher level of design integration and cost savings over previous systems.”

Notzen added, “Because of the elegance of the design integration, intellectual property protection, especially patent protection of the new system, is considered important to protect others from copying the design.”
