Green Lantern Solar Wins 2023 Solar Builder Community Solar Project of the Year Award for Innovative Brownfield Project

Green Lantern Solar

Green Lantern Solar, a leading renewable energy development and finance company focusing on commercial solar and energy storage systems, is the recipient of the 2023 Community Solar Project of the Year Award from Solar Builder. This accolade celebrates Green Lantern Solar’s outstanding achievement in completing a ground-mount net-metered community solar project situated on a challenging brownfield site at a former U.S. Air Force Station in St. Albans, Vt. Solar Builder is an industry-leading media outlet that focuses on the installation/construction of solar PV systems, covering the latest PV technology (modules, mounting, inverters, storage, BOS) and equipping installers/contractors with tips and tools to make informed purchasing decisions. Solar Builder’s Project of the Year Awards is a celebration of the solar industry’s achievements and dedication. The awards recognize the hard work of construction teams, the creativity of engineers, the leadership of developers and the commitment of local businesses, government agencies and nonprofits. Green Lantern Solar’s award-winning project, a 500 kW system featuring 1,700 ground-mounted panels, generates 892,000 kWh of clean energy annually, making a significant contribution to the region’s sustainable energy goals. “We are deeply honored to receive the 2023 Solar Builder Community Solar Project of the Year Award for our brownfield project on a former U.S. Air Force Station in Vt.,” said Scott Buckley, president of Green Lantern Solar. “This recognition underscores our unwavering commitment to advancing renewable energy solutions, even in the face of formidable site challenges. Our success is a testament to the dedication of our team and the resilience of our partners and community. We are proud to contribute to Vermont's sustainable future and look forward to continuing our mission of delivering clean energy solutions for a better tomorrow.” Originally scheduled to commence construction in March 2021, the project encountered various challenges, including commissioning delays. Despite these setbacks, Green Lantern Solar rallied its team and local contractors to persevere through a harsh Vermont winter, ensuring the project’s completion within the new timeline. The development of the project was complicated by the presence of contaminants on the brownfield site, necessitating the implementation of a Department of Environmental Conservation-approved soil management strategy. Vegetative management was conducted by hand using chainsaws to prevent any exposure to potentially contaminated soils in sensitive areas. Additionally, the project site, located atop a hill overlooking the city of St. Albans, consisted predominantly of solid rock, requiring drilling through rock for many of the racking posts and fence components. Portions of the site were also ballasted to safeguard the contaminated areas. Despite these formidable challenges, the project successfully met its March commissioning date, providing clean energy savings to the local community, including area farms benefiting from net metering credits. Furthermore, the project plays a pivotal role in helping Vermont achieve its Renewable Energy Standard target of 75 percent renewable energy by 2032. The system’s environmental impact is substantial, offsetting 632 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions, equivalent to the reduction of 708,099 pounds of coal burned or the energy consumption of 79 homes for one year. “We extend our sincere appreciation to all of our esteemed partners, stakeholders and the dedicated local community for their steadfast support in transforming this award-winning project into a remarkable reality,” added Buckley. “We also congratulate all the nominees and honorees who have distinguished themselves in these prestigious awards.” The following organizations’ unwavering dedication and exceptional efforts were instrumental in the success of this award-winning project: APA Solar; Downs Rachlin Martin; E&S Electric Company; Green Mountain Power; Homestead Fence Company; Jeff Adams Excavating; Krebs & Lansing Consulting Engineers; Megawatt Group; Solar on Earth; Solar Power Engineering; Stone Environmental; Vermont Economic Development Authority and the Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation. About Green Lantern Solar Green Lantern Solar is a vertically integrated regional renewable energy development company with a particular emphasis on turn-key commercial solar solutions for municipal, education, healthcare and government entities. Green Lantern works with landowners to revitalize and re-develop low-value sites such as brownfields, landfills, quarries/pits/extraction sites and other challenging real estate.

Bitcoin Eyes $40k, Polygon Set To Explode While New Token Leads With Real AI Use in Crypto

Total Media

Excitement has been rekindled in the crypto market after the Fed hinted at a potential interest rate drop. Bitcoin has capitalized on this, surging past $40,000 to set its sights on $44,000. Polygon (MATIC) is another crypto that has gained momentum in the last few days. Because of this, a top crypto analyst has predicted a potential price surge for MATIC. Amidst the price rally, Everlodge has caught the attention of the crypto space. The project has gained popularity as it looks to lead the adoption of real AI in the crypto space. Bitcoin Has Reclaimed $40,000, Sets Sight on $444,000 A key Fed official has raised the possibility of a rate cut by spring if inflation keeps slowing. The announcement provided the cryptocurrency market a positive boost. Profiting from the optimistic outlook, Bitcoin surged beyond $40,000. The price of Bitcoin will surpass $44k if it breaks above $43,400. Additionally, TradingView data has indicated that the price of Bitcoin may soon surpass $40,000. The approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF is imminent, which might lead to a price rise above $50,000. Analysts have projected that the Bitcoin price could increase to $100,000 by the time of the Bitcoin halving. Some have projected a price of $100,000 for BTC by April 2024. Polygon (MATIC) Could Surge Soon Pseudonymous analyst Bluntz has shared his sentiments about Polygon (MATIC). Based on his analysis, MATIC is currently showing significant bullish signs. According to Bluntz, the price of Polygon is ready for a potential 20% push. When this happens, the price of MATIC could rally to a new high above $1. The MATIC price last traded above $1 in May. Several developments could cause the Polygon price to increase. First, the network is looking to transition. As part of the upgrade, the Polygon network will launch a rebranded POL token. In addition, Lumoz has announced that they will launch StableNet - an EVM-compatible ZK-Rollup - on Polygon. These events could provide the momentum for a price increase for the Polygon coin. Everlodge Leads Adoption of Real AI in Crypto Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as one of the hottest trends in recent months. According to experts, AI will eventually prove to be priceless for platforms that rely on smart contracts and cryptocurrency. Everlodge has embraced this, integrating AI into its blockchain-based real estate marketplace. The purpose of these tools is to assist Everlodge members in making better investment decisions in real estate. These tools are available to Everlodge customers for monitoring, scanning, and analyzing worldwide real estate values. They will not only have access to the most recent global real estate prices, but the AI technologies will also be able to forecast future values. Everlodge wants to provide these properties with more optimized access. The integration of AI aligns with the project's objective of facilitating global accessibility and ease of real estate investing. Due to this, the project has already become popular in the crypto space, drawing a lot of investors to purchase ELDG, the native network token. The project has quickly sold over 18 million ELDG tokens. Also, because Everlodge is connected to the real estate market, which is valued at over $280 trillion, analysts have expressed optimism about it. They have therefore estimated greater upside potential for Everlodge than the Polygon coin. By 2024, ELDG could easily reach $1 per token, while trading at $0.025 at the moment.

Battery Mineral Resources Corp. Announces Operations, Permitting and Community Relations Update

Battery Mineral Resources Corp.

Battery Mineral Resources Corp. ( TSXV: BMR ) ( OTCQB: BTRMF ) (“ Battery ” or “ BMR ” or the “ Company ”) is very pleased to provide an operational, permit and community relations update. The Punitaqui copper mining complex (“Punitaqui”) includes the copper concentrator or “plant”, tailings storage facility, electrical, instrumentation and mechanical maintenance facilities, administration offices, assay laboratories, cafeterias, copper concentrate storage and loadout facilities, and the Cinabrio, San Andres and Dalmacia mines and includes the soon-to-be established Cinabrio Norte mine (see Figures 1 and 2). Operational Readiness The Company is pleased to report that personnel hiring for the resumption of full operations at Punitaqui is on schedule. Furthermore, final mine maintenance at the San Andres mine including rehabilitation of ground support, re-activation of compressed air, ventilation, power, and water in preparation for resumption of full mining operations, commenced in late November. A contract for the final stages of Punitaqui plant maintenance and rehabilitation has been executed and activities commenced December 4th with the aim of full operational commissioning of the plant in March and plant start-up in April of 2024. Environmental and Operational Permitting Permits have been granted allowing for thickened tailings deposition into the tailing’s storage facility of up to 1,500,000 tonnes - representing approximately 20 months of mine and plant operations during the first phase of operations at Punitaqui. The company expects to receive a permit for “dry stack” or filtered tailings deposition in late 2024. Filtered tailings deposition has many benefits over thickened tailings deposition including much lower water consumption in plant operations and far greater capacity for tailings storage over the same physical footprint. Construction and commissioning of the tailings filter plant will take nine months and thereafter, filtered tailings are to be deposited. Deposition of filtered tailings will allow for an additional eight-plus years of tailings storage at our permitted mining rate. This will be accomplished over nearly the same footprint the current tailings storage facility occupies. A permit for the San Andres mine has been granted which allows for BMR to commence drifting, ramp construction and mine development on two different elevation levels and allows for establishment of new underground exploration drilling platforms. This mine development will establish access to new zones of copper mineralization for the forthcoming mine production. Other activities at the San Andres mine include final achievement of equipment, supplies and personnel arrangements. VAT Recovery Extension Approval As in many developed countries, Chile has a Value Added Tax (“VAT”) on goods and services. Following BMR’s acquisition of the Punitaqui Mining Complex, it filed an application with, and received approval from, the Chilean Ministry of Economy, Development and Tourism (the “Ministry of Economy”) to participate in a VAT-recovery program set in place by the Chilean government to incentivize Chilean exports (the “VAT Program”). The VAT Program allows BMR to recover the VAT paid on goods and services purchase, once it submits verified documentation, in advance of achieving agreed-upon amounts of to-be-exported mineral concentrates. This VAT-recovery program provides BMR with a source of cash that it reinvests in its assets in Chile. On November 29, 2023, the Ministry of Economy issued a resolution to extend the VAT-recovery program for BMR until December 2025, which is a welcomed positive result. The new cap for total VAT recovery for the Company is US$7.0 million. As of today, Minera BMR has recovered a total of US$3.1 million in VAT recovery since it began to operate in Chile, with the remaining US$3.9 million expected to be recovered prior to December 2025. The remaining US$3.9 million allowed to be recovered by BMR will more than suffice until such time that the Punitaqui Mining Complex begins to generate revenue and cash flow from operations. Community Activities As previously disclosed, an agreement that will grant BMR surface rights for exploration of “blue sky” areas on BMR mineral claims has been signed with the local community of Potrerillos. BMR geologists have since defined the drill target locations within the “blue sky” areas. The company’s next step, expected in the next few weeks, is to formalize easement agreements with the Potrerillos community. Conversations with members of the community of Punitaqui to establish easement agreements for the Dalmacia mine road are well advanced. BMR’s social and community relations consultant, Integratio Mediação Social e Sustentabilidade (“Integratio”) has completed the community relationship policies and consultation manuals that will support and guide the Company’s social engagement strategy for the future.​ The Company is currently proactively engaging with both of our local communities of Potrerillos and Punitaqui as well as the local and regional authorities on the status of the project in terms of social impact and employment opportunities. Additionally, the Ministry of Public Workings (MOP) is currently enhancing part of the existing road that connects the Punitaqui Plant to the Dalmacia mine, and Battery has reached an agreement to contribute to the widening of the road and an increase of the asphaltic pavement to support trucking of ore from Dalmacia to the Punitaqui Plant. MOP field work for this began early November and is expected to be completed in Q1 2024. The Company is also proud to update its activities with the regional association of mining companies, CORMINCO. In the past three months BMR has participated in several meetings organized by CORMINCO, with regional authorities which have included one of the senators of the region as well as the presidential delegate of the Limari Province. These meetings have been extremely useful as an introduction to local mining suppliers and contractors and has aided in accelerating our overall permitting process.​ BMR has also been participating in meetings with the Chilean national miner’s association, SONAMI, and have enjoyed their support and begun participating in their specialized committees. The Company looks forward to providing additional updates to the market in the coming weeks as we move Punitaqui back into sustainable, profitable production for all stakeholders. About Battery Mineral Resources Corp. Battery Mineral Resources is a battery minerals company providing shareholders exposure to the global mega-trend of electrification while being focused on growth through cash-flow, exploration, and acquisitions in favourable mining jurisdictions. Battery Mineral’s mission is the discovery, acquisition, and development of battery metals (namely cobalt, lithium, graphite, and copper), in North America, South America and South Korea and to become a premier and responsible supplier of battery minerals to the electrification marketplace. BMR is currently pursuing a near-term resumption of operations of the Punitaqui Mining Complex, a past copper-gold-silver producer, in the Coquimbo region of Chile. BMR is the largest mineral claim holder in the historic Gowganda Cobalt-Silver Camp in Ontario, Canada, and continues to pursue a focused program to build on the recently announced, +1-million-pound high-grade cobalt resource at McAra. In addition, Battery Mineral owns 100% of ESI Energy Services, Inc. (including ESI’s wholly owned USA operating subsidiary, Ozzie’s, Inc.), a profitable mainline pipeline and renewable energy equipment rental and sales company with operations in Alberta, Canada and Arizona, USA.

Ollie Hinkle Heart Foundation will Introduce Ventripoint's AI-Heart-Imaging Diagnostic Technology to America's Hospitals

Ventripoint Diagnostics Ltd.

Toronto, Ontario – TheNewswire - December 05, 2023 – One of the United States’ leading foundations, the Ollie Hinkle Heart Foundation (OHHF), has selected Ventripoint’s AI-powered heart-imaging technology as one of three artificial intelligence systems it will be presenting to U.S. hospitals. Ventripoint Diagnostics Ltd. (" Ventripoint " or the " Company "), (TSXV:VPT ); ( OTC:VPTDF) has pioneered an AI technology that transforms ultrasound scans into MRI-quality images of the heart in minutes, at a fraction of the cost, making it a new alternative to MRI heart scans.   Ventripoint’s FDA-cleared AI-heart-imaging technology can be easily used with all brands of cardiac ultrasound equipment. Technicians and medical staff can be trained on the unit in approximately two hours. “We think Ventripoint is a game-changer for children with heart disease,” said Beth Rumack, the Chief Operating Officer of the OHHF. “You no longer need to take a child down to an MRI suite, which entails a whole team of technicians and often means having to put the child under anesthesia, so they don’t move during the MRI scan.   “With Ventripoint, you just put a sensor on the child’s chest,” added Rumack, who is also a cardiac nurse practitioner and former hospital administrator. “You can do the scan in the child’s hospital room, even in a cardiologist’s office, and the results are available in minutes, not days. And you can take a scan safely, as often as you need.” OHHF is bringing together 13 U.S. hospital partners into its Take Heart program, with 30 more expected to join, to promote new technologies and patient care approaches to heart health care, particularly for children and their families. It has selected three companies featuring AI technologies: Ventripoint, the clinical data software platform Etiometry, and the remote pediatric monitoring platform Locus Health. “We want to introduce Ventripoint to all our hospital partners, to make it a standard of care,” said Rumack. “ Ventripoint is the only AI technology like this in this category. There’s nobody else doing this. Their Artificial Intelligence approach to heart scans is pushing health care in a new direction, offering an inexpensive and rapid alternative to most MRI heart scans.” Dr. Alvira Macanovic, Ventripoint’s President and CEO, welcomed the strategic partnership: “We are proud of the endorsement of the Ollie Hinkle Heart Foundation. OHHF aligns with Ventripoint’s core mission of helping patients with heart disease, as well as their families.  We are committed to furthering Ollie’s legacy by providing a less invasive and smarter treatment option. This partnership will advance the introduction of Ventripoint into U.S. hospitals.” Jenn and Mark Hinkle, who lost their son to heart disease, are known for their advancement and funding of new technologies and innovative approaches to improving the care and outcomes for children facing heart disease. "We're excited by the work being done at Ventripoint to advance the diagnostic capability and technology for the pediatric heart community,” said Jenn Hinkle. “Because Ollie had a pacemaker, he wasn't a candidate for an MRI. Had something like the VMS+ been around when Ollie was alive, his cardiac team would have had access to a clearer picture of what was going on with his heart during those critical moments leading up to his death, and his outcome may have been different.”   About Ventripoint Diagnostics Ltd. Ventripoint has become an industry leader in the application of AI (Artificial Intelligence) to echocardiography. Ventripoint's VMS products are powered by its proprietary KBR technology, which is the result of a decade of development and provides accurate volumetric cardiac measurements equivalent to MRI. This affordable, gold-standard alternative allows cardiologists greater confidence in the management of their patients. Providing better care to patients serves as a springboard and basic standard for all Ventripoint's products that guide our future developments. In addition, VMS+ is versatile and can be used with all ultrasound systems from any vendor supported by regulatory market approvals in the U.S., Europe and Canada.   About the Ollie Hinkle Heart Foundation Ollie Hinkle died due to congenital heart disease (CHD) at 13 months old. Mark and Jenn Hinkle channelled their grief into the Ollie Hinkle Heart Foundation (OHHF) by taking their love for Ollie and the love given to them by family and friends to pay it on to heart families whose struggles they knew first-hand. During Ollie’s life, the Hinkles observed the ineffective nature of cardiac care, which leaves families to endure and navigate mounting unmet needs alone. This experience led to a mission to transform the future of pediatric heart care by uniting families and clinicians to address basic social needs through Community Outreach, mental healthcare access through Ollie’s Branch, support for Technology and Research to improve outcomes, and collective community building through Take Heart.
