NEWS RELEASE
SOLAR ANNOUNCES THE
ACQUISITION OF D2FUSION INC.
August 19, 2005 - Vancouver,
British Columbia - Solar Energy Limited (OTC BB "SLRE.OB")
("Solar") today announced the acquisition of D2Fusion Inc.
("D2Fusion"), an R & D company engaged in developing proprietary solid-state
fusion technology aimed at entry level heat and energy applications for homes and
industry.
Solar issued to D2Fusion's sole
shareholder a five year convertible debenture in the amount of $2,000,000 and agreed to
advance up to $2,200,000 in the form of loans over the next twelve months to capitalize
D2Fusion's initial business plan in exchange for all of D2Fusion's issued and
outstanding shares. The acquisition further commits Solar to cause D2Fusion, within six
months of the agreement, to have direct access to the public capital markets for the
purpose of raising additional capital in excess of Solar's financing obligations.
Solid-state fusion is a technology
more widely recognized under the name "cold-fusion." It is a radiation free
nuclear reaction that, in its simplest form, fuses two deterium atoms into a single helium
atom. Each new helium atom created is accompanied by an enormous energy release. To put
this into a more common perspective, 1 gram of hydrogen can yield 100 billion watts of
energy.
D2Fusion is a research and
development firm staffed by scientists and engineers. Russ George and Dr. Tom Passell, who
head the Foster City, California based company, have been involved with
"cold-fusion" research since 1989. George's successful
"cold-fusion" prototype has been tested at Stanford Research Institute
("SRI"). The immediate target of D2Fusion is to produce a 1kW thermal module
with parallel prototypes tested at Los Alamos (headed by Dr. Tom Claytor) and in Frascati,
Italy. D2Fusion's ultimate goal is to produce electricity at less than 2¢/kWh
and heat at a fraction of today's cost, both achieved with no emissions.
Solar is well aware of the
controversy surrounding "cold fusion" technology. There is, however, sufficient
global evidence that the risk/reward ratio merits investment. Should D2Fusion's
successful prototype be scaled to commercial size, many of the world's energy, water,
and pollution problems could be minimized.
The science and news surrounding
solid-state fusion and D2Fusion can be viewed on the company's website at
