Green Fuel Technologies, Offers Home Energy Audits to Beat the Heat
Complete Home Energy Audit Prepares Valley Homeowners for Summer
(Phoenix)- Green Fuel Technologies Inc., one of the Valley’s leading alternative energy
companies, now offers a brand-new certified home energy service that will help Arizona
homeowners save money and prepare for the summer heat.
Green Fuel’s “Complete Whole Home Energy Audit” provides homeowners with a
comprehensive home assessment that evaluates energy inefficiencies in the home
including water damage, mold damage and insufficient insulation. Each audit is
conducted by a on staff Building Performance Institute (BPI) certified home performance
analyst who will identify energy wastes and offer homeowners the most efficient
upgrades to prevent cool air from escaping the home. During the hot summer months,
an audit can identify ways to prevent air conditioning from leaving the home, and Green
Fuel can help make the needed changes which will result in lower electricity bills.
The Green Fuel “Complete Whole Home Energy Audit” is certified by Arizona Home
Performance with ENERGY STAR. Home check ups, with complete testing and
inspections, normally cost $299-$750 for an average size home, but APS customers
qualify for a $200 rebate, making their cost for a Green Fuel “Complete Whole Home
Energy Audit” ONLY $99! APS and SRP also offer rebates on most weatherization and
energy efficiency upgrades, resulting in up to 75% in home improvement incentives.
“Homes need tune-ups to run at their maximum efficiency,” said John Casey, CEO of
Green Fuel Technologies. “Easy affordable upgrades can improve the overall health and
performance of your home, keeping you cool during the summer months, and more
efficient year round.”
Some of the most common solutions include upgrading cooling system, sealing ducts,
sealing air leaks, upgrading lighting and appliances and repairing or adding insulation. A
home energy audit can identify ways to save money on energy bills, increase comfort in
every room, improve health and safety, increase the durability and value of the home and
improve environmental quality for the community.

Green Fuel Technologies Inks Deal with Coulomb Technologies for
Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure
Five Charging Stations Planned by January - 4,000 in 2010
Phoenix- Green Fuel Technologies, Inc., one of the Valley’s leading alternative energy
companies announces today its partnership with Coulomb Technologies, the leader in
networked electric vehicle charging stations, to create an electrical vehicle charging
station in the Southwest.
The initial five charging ports will be located at various businesses including retail venues,
restaurants, malls, parking structures and municipal buildings in the metro-Phoenix area.
“2010 will be the year to build the electrical vehicle infrastructure in the Southwest and
Green Fuel wants to be at the forefront of it,” said Green Fuel Technologies CEO, John
Casey.
Electric Vehicles currently on the market require charging after 30-40 miles. New
vehicles coming to the marketplace are expected to have a range of 100-200 miles. The
technology for the new charging stations, developed by Coulomb Technologies, will allow
consumers to charge their electric vehicles at home or at work.
Locations for the charging ports will be available to commercial or residential customers
and can be leased or purchased and include tax credits and utility rebates.
“As the electrical vehicle charging infrastructure expands, people can plan to their
errands around locations that offer a charging station component,” Hamby said. “This is
a great incentive for business owners interested in attracting green consumers whose
electrical vehicles require charging,” said Casey.
The company expects to create a network of 4,000 charging stations throughout the
Southwest by the end of 2010. For more information contact Green Fuel Technologies
at 602-269-9206.

Arizona’s Green Fuel Technologies Expands to California, Colorado, Texas
Valley alternative energy company offers consumers savings on long-term
energy costs
PHOENIX –Green Fuel Technologies, Inc., one of the Valley’s leading alternative
energy companies, is expanding its energy and money saving solar power services
to California, Colorado and Texas. The Phoenix-based company combines energy-
saving solar products with its patent pending installation equipment to provide the
highest quality renewable energies.
Green Fuel Technologies has made the new technology available and more
affordable to residential consumers outside of Arizona. The company’s first project
in San Francisco will service 1 megawatt or approximately 500 residences in the
Bay Area.
“We are very sophisticated in providing customers with every aspect of the solar
investment,” said John Casey, CEO of Green Fuel Technologies. “We provide
complete support from beginning to end including, submitting permits, utility
rebates, HOA approvals, scheduling city and utility inspections as well as the financial
mechanisms required for each project.”
The company offers in-house design and engineering as well as fully licensed
electrical, plumbing and general contracting. The company offers full-service in-
house sales, design, operations and installation teams to ensure every aspect of
each client’s job is impeccable.
Green Fuel Technologies, Inc. has been serving the alternative energy needs of
Arizonans since 1999 by bringing new energy technologies to market. In 2006, the
company began offering green building solutions including solar electric, solar water
heating and other energy efficient products for residential and commercial
customers. (Continued)

“Own your power—don’t lease it,” said Casey. “We help consumers take control of
their energy costs and consumption.”
Through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (2009), utility companies
across the country are offering cash rebates paying for up to 50 percent of
system installation costs. Solar electric and solar hot water systems also make a
customer eligible for federal and state tax credits that can total more than 30
percent of the installed system cost.
Casey advises residents and companies to invest now while incentives are high
and product costs are low.
“Since solar power is a clean, silent, reliable energy source and requires very little
maintenance, the time for consumers to invest is now,” said Casey. “Do it while
you can, not when you have to.”
Incentives for choosing solar technologies from power companies are shrinking
over time. By June 2010, Arizona’s SRP rebates are expected to be reduced.
While APS rebates are good through 2010, the amounts may decrease in the
future. Energy rates increase an average of ten percent per year, so installing
solar energy now will create savings in the long run.
