Volatus Aerospace Corp.

Volatus Aerospace Corp. (TSXV: VOL) (“Volatus”) is pleased to announce that it has closed its acquisition of MVT Geo-Solutions Inc. (“MVT”), a Quebec, Canada-based leader in geomatics innovations. The company announced the definitive agreement to acquire MVT on February 1, 2022. The agreement was subject to several customary conditions including TSX Venture Exchange approval and due diligence. "With the successful closure of this acquisition, Volatus expands our footprint in Quebec, which is one of the largest markets in Canada. We also increase our expertise in geomatics and our access to national and provincial large-scale clients," stated Glen Lynch, CEO of Volatus. "Maude Pelletier and her team are a welcome addition to the Volatus family. We are all looking forward to working together and growing our business." Maude Pelletier, CEO of MVT, commented: “Combining our strengths and capabilities will allow us to lead the industry and maximize our potential. It’s with great pride that we join the family, and we look forward to participating in the growth of Volatus and sharing our knowledge with the rest of the team.” The total consideration payable in connection with the acquisition of 100% of outstanding shares of MVT is $995,000 CAD. This amount consists of: (i) $850,000 CAD paid in cash; and (ii) the balance through the issuance of 349,399 common shares of Volatus having a value of $145,000 CAD (calculated based on the last closing price of the Volatus common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange prior to the closing date). In a prior release (February 1, 2022) it was stated that Volatus will issue common shares to the value of $350,000. This has changed due to working capital adjustments as agreed between the parties.

Mercury-Laced Fluorescent Bulbs Should Be Phased Out—LEDs Now More Economical

Clean Lighting Coalition

Fluorescent tube light bulbs, once embraced as an energy-efficient option, use far more energy than today’s LEDs and are now a needless toxic health risk, according to a study published today. Laws and rules restricting the use of toxic mercury have generally exempted these mercury-containing bulbs because of a lack of better options, but the study shows for the first time that LEDs are now available in all needed shapes and sizes—and cost less to own and operate. Transitioning all new fluorescent bulbs to LEDs in the United States alone would cut annual carbon dioxide emissions in 2030 by an amount equal to the emissions from 4 million typical passenger cars over a year, the report finds. The new study is published jointly by the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE), the Appliance Standards Awareness Project (ASAP), CLASP, and the Clean Lighting Coalition. State, federal, and international policymakers should now phase out the fluorescent bulbs to prevent more mercury from being introduced into households and the environment while cutting greenhouse gas emissions, the study argues. As soon as this month, international negotiators meeting to update a convention on mercury pollution can do so. The bulbs at issue are the four- and eight-foot tubes common in commercial buildings and in some home kitchens, basements, and garages, as well as several types of compact fluorescent bulbs designed for use in certain fixtures. Their toxic mercury can be released in several ways. An estimated 75% of fluorescent bulbs used in the United States are not recycled or disposed of properly; mercury leached from landfills eventually reaches rivers, lakes, and oceans, where it bioaccumulates in fish and shellfish. Consumption of contaminated seafood is the leading cause of human exposure to mercury. Broken bulbs in homes and buildings, if not properly cleaned up, can also present a health risk to those nearby. Rapidly phasing out most fluorescent models would prevent bulbs containing 16,000 pounds of mercury from being sold and installed in the United States through 2050, the study finds—a massive amount for a toxin that can damage the human brain with only a miniscule quantity. “Fluorescent bulbs used to be the energy-efficient option, but that’s just not the case anymore. LEDs have changed the game and we found there’s no good reason to keep using fluorescents at this point,” said Jennifer Thorne Amann, senior fellow at ACEEE and report coauthor. Joanna Mauer, technical advocacy manager for ASAP and fellow coauthor, said, “LEDs are now widely available as drop-in replacements for fluorescent bulbs. In addition to not containing mercury, LEDs last about two times longer than fluorescents and cut energy use in half. Any increase in initial price more than pays off through the reduced electricity costs.” An international agreement among 137 countries, the Minamata Convention on Mercury, is phasing out the use of mercury in numerous products and industrial processes and uses. But the convention—drafted in 2013—specifically exempts lighting, citing a lack of cost-effective alternatives at that time. Later this month, the nations will consider a proposal that would ban the manufacture, import, and export of fluorescent bulbs in the participating countries. “The United States can be a leader in the global transition to clean lighting,” said Ana Maria Carreño, director at CLASP, which funded the report. “By supporting the phase-out of fluorescents as proposed by the African region at the Minamata Convention on Mercury, U.S. policymakers will be making a statement to the world that it is time to say farewell to fluorescents.” The report also finds: For businesses—where most linear fluorescent bulbs are used—additional upfront costs for the most common LED bulbs in the United States are paid back in less than two months. For households, the payback period for the most common LED bulbs is about a year. A complete transition from fluorescent bulbs to LED lighting in the United States would cut 18 million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually in 2030. On a cumulative basis, a phaseout would cut carbon dioxide emissions by more than 200 million metric tons through 2050. The United States can support a global phaseout of fluorescents by 2025 through the Minamata Convention, and the federal government and U.S. states can phase out fluorescents in the United States through several mechanisms: U.S. states: Twenty-three states have prohibited the sale of some products that contain mercury, but all include exemptions for most fluorescent bulbs. The California and Vermont legislatures are considering bills that would end the sale of common fluorescent bulbs. U.S. federal government: Several federal laws and rules govern mercury pollution, limiting emissions from industrial sources and governing end-of-life product disposal. A phaseout of mercury-containing bulbs could be accomplished either through EPA regulation under existing law or through congressional modification of federal bulb efficiency standards. (Separately, two pending Biden administration proposals could phase out most incandescent and halogen bulbs, which are much less efficient than fluorescent bulbs). __________________________________________________ The American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE), a nonprofit research organization, develops policies to reduce energy waste and combat climate change. Its independent analysis advances investments, programs, and behaviors that use energy more effectively and help build an equitable clean energy future. The Appliance Standards Awareness Project (ASAP) organizes and leads a broad-based coalition effort that works to advance, win, and defend new appliance, equipment, and lighting standards that cut emissions that contribute to climate change and other environmental and public health harms, save water, and reduce economic and environmental burdens for low- and moderate-income households.

The Kohlbecker Brothers are leading Industrial Architecture into the Digital Age

Stockwood Strategy

In 2022, Kohlbecker Gesamtplan GmbH is celebrating 90 years of leading in Industrial Architecture and pushing boundaries in digitizing the industry. Making use of cutting-edge technology, the company has become Europe’s leading general planner and emphasizes on sustainability while working towards a carbon neutral footprint. Ever since the company was founded by Karl Kohlbecker in 1930, three generations of Kohlbecker men have dedicated themselves to be responsible for countless automotive structures on a global scale. Their reputation has brought them costumers like Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, Porsche, Jaguar Landrover, Magna Steyr, and HK Motors. Kohlbecker Gesamtplan has not only worked for clients from the automotive industry, but the company has also contracted with HARIBO, the Jumeirah Group, the Sochi Winter Olympics as well as rebuilding Berlins iconic “Potsdamer Platz. Of course, as decades past, there was an intrinsic need to adapt, modify, innovate and finally revolutionizing the way architects work to keep the company’s edge over their competitors. Together, the charismatic duo is guiding their ninety-year-old family business into a bright future of sustainable, responsible, and digitized practices. Kohlbecker has quickly become one of Europe’s leading general planners having built its success by pushing digital capabilities. Kohlbecker’s reputation has seen it win ambitious, complex projects for manufacturing and production factories. Kohlbecker remains family-run with its lead principals, tech-savvy brothers Mat t hias and Florian, heavily invested in integrating technology – from AI and VR to robotics – into its core service offering. The architecture and engineering market is now heavily driven by technological advancements due to increasing project complexity. Digital tools, from machine learning to fabrication technologies; artificial intelligence to Big Data have become increasingly ubiquitous and pervasive within architecture. In midst of a global pandemic changing the rules and necessities of how social and business practices are executed, Kohlbecker has launched AVAT AR, their proprietary tech Platform which aims to increase project efficiency by 20%. AVAT AR acts as a “Digital Twin” for clients and project managers at Kohlbecker to virtually interface throughout the planning and management of any given construction project. Kohlbecker’s practices have proven to generate significant productivity increases, as well as potential cost savings. Kohlbecker’s AVAT AR technology has been used in large scale redevelopment projects with clients including a recent Project for German car manufacturer Audi in Asia. “ Not only was travel largely impossible due to the pandemic, it was also made unnecessary by our digital way of working,” shares Florian Kohlbecker. “ This made it possible to orchestrate a global team and a high-performance project without any face-to-face meetings. In the first 13 weeks of the undertaking, more than 251,000 miles of business travel were saved, thus preventing 110 tons of CO2 emissions (the equivalent of more than 115 soccer fields of forest being saved), which would have required 35,000 trees to absorb in the same period. This led to the over $300k being saved as well. “ The company will be showcasing AVAT AR at the Expo 2020 Dubai, with Florian Kohlbecker being on stage to run through facts and how technology might just be the answer to saving the planet. Today, Kohlbecker is well on track with a yearly revenue of over USD 30M. It’s lead principals Matthias and Florian Kohlbecker have successfully led the business to exceptional growth, including year-on-year growth for the past three years despite the coronavirus pandemic.
