(April-30-2008) - Another solar company with Silicon Valley ties emerges
from stealth mode today. Sunrgi, based in Hollywood with a research office
in Silicon Valley, says it can produce devices that magnify sunlight and
produce electricity at 5 cents a kilowatt-hour, or about the cost of
coal-generated electricity.

(April-30-2008) - A new patents pending solar energy system will soon make
it possible to produce electricity at a wholesale cost of 5 cents per kWh
(kilowatt hour). This price is competitive with the wholesale cost of
producing electricity using fossil fuels and a fraction of the current cost
of solar energy.

(April-30-2008) - SUNRGI has released details about its new patent-pending
solar system that could make it possible to produce electricity at a
wholesale cost of US $0.05 per kilowatt-hour (kWh), according to the
company. Xtreme Concentrated Photovoltaics (XCPV) can concentrate the
equivalent of more than 1,600 times the sun's energy onto solar cells.

(April-30-2008) - Grid parity...it's what we're all hoping for. That
magical moment when solar power (or other renewables for that matter) become
available at the cost of current power sources. And, if Sunrgi's claims are to be believed,
it could be only 15 months away.

Year"
(April-29-2008) - A Silicon Valley start-up says it has developed
technology that can deliver solar power in about a year at prices
competitive with coal-fired electricity, a milestone that would leapfrog
other more established players and turbocharge the fast-growing industry.

(April-29-2008) - SUNRGI is going to extremes to lower the cost of
electricity from the sun. The start-up on Tuesday came out of stealth and
described its solar concentrator technology and business plans. It has
built a prototype device that magnifies light 1,600 times onto expensive
germanium solar cells. The company intends to produce the devices in 12 to
15 months, and says they will be capable of generating electricity at 5
center a kilowatt hour-competitive with coal-fired power plants.

Concentrator Design"
(April-29-2008) - When looking at next-generation renewable technologies,
you'll hear a lot of claims about how cheaply they can create electricity.
Usually the figures hover around 10 cents per kilowatt-hour, which is about
low enough to compete with the mix of coal, oil and nuclear power most
utilities use. No such small ambitions, for a new startup called Sunrgi,
which is unveiling its technology today at the
National Energy Global Forum.

(April-29-2008) - The Los Angeles-based company comes out of stealth mode
with a solar-power system capable of concentrating sunlight beyond what
normally would be the burning point. It plans to begin producing its
concentrators, named Xtreme, in about a year.
