BlueNRGY Group & Inaccess Holdings Announce Expansion of Draker-Inaccess Strategic Alliance
BlueNRGY Acquires Inaccess Equity Stake

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwired - Jul 11, 2016) - BlueNRGY Group Limited (OTCBB: CBDEF) ("BlueNRGY") and Inaccess Holdings Limited ("Inaccess Holdings"), both leaders in mission-critical infrastructure management solutions and related asset management systems, today announced the formalization and expansion of the strategic alliance between Draker and Inaccess. Their respective business units provide data management, analytics and operational control for solar and other renewable power systems. To strengthen the companies' capacity to meet the rapidly expanding demand from large multinational customers for enhanced services and software, BlueNRGY raised $5.0 million of equity financing, of which approximately $3.7 million was invested in Inaccess Holdings for a non-control equity stake.
The equity investment aligns these geographically complementary solar monitoring market leaders to combine their proven technologies and delivery capabilities to better serve existing and new clients. In furtherance of a single vision, Christos Georgopoulos, CEO of Inaccess, will also assume the senior executive role at Draker while BlueNRGY and Inaccess further explore integrating their monitoring software platforms and organizations. Taking into account backlog at Draker and Inaccess that is expected to be fulfilled through the end of 2016, the combined solar generation capacity monitored and managed by the companies will be among the world's largest, exceeding 6GW at more than 4,000 sites distributed across six continents.
Mr. Georgopoulos said, "The power and potential of the Inaccess / Draker strategic alliance was identified more than two years ago. After months of work sharpening the focus to meet client needs, it is gratifying for this vision to now be realized. The customer service capability of the Draker team and increased access to asset owners in North America, will accelerate the market penetration of the Inaccess utility-scale monitoring and control technologies. Concurrently, Draker will immediately gain new distribution channels for its industry-leading DAS systems and its robust monitoring and analytics tools. While we have begun to identify ways to combine the best features of both the Inaccess and Draker software, existing customers of each company will continue to have access to their data through the familiar portals and interfaces."
The suite of products and commissioning and support service available as a result of the strategic alliance is the broadest in the industry, enabling true "follow-the-sun" customer support. It also allows Draker and Inaccess to fully and effectively address the full range of non-residential solar installations, representing the preponderance of capacity expected to be installed over the next 5 years.
William Morro, Chairman & Managing Director of BlueNRGY, stated, "The alliance between Draker and Inaccess, along with BlueNRGY's investment in Inaccess, is an important milestone in building the preeminent independent monitoring and asset management platform. Inaccess has great technical depth and management talent that can significantly accelerate BlueNRGY's growth and help us set the standards for the independent monitoring industry. We are thrilled to be working with the entire Inaccess team and to be bringing their leading edge solutions to the utility-scale market in the Americas."
