EEStor Publishes Comparative Report on Benefits of Its Technology for the Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor Marke t
Company Believes its Technology to be Longer Lasting, More Cost Effective Than Current Technologies

TORONTO, April 26, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EEStor Corporation (TSXV:ESU) (“EEStor” or the “Company”) announced today that it published a report detailing the comparative advantages of its ceramic-based dielectric capacitor for the aluminum electrolytic capacitor (AEC) market. The report, prepared by the EEStor and its consultants, directly compares and contrasts its certified solid-state technology against incumbent AEC offerings.
According to Paumanok Publications analyst and EEStor consultant Dennis Zogbi, the main driving factor for the existing capacitor market is cost. Capacitor cost is in turn mainly driven by the volume of material required for capacitors to reach their nominal capacitance and voltage specification. Solid state capacitors manufactured using EEStor’s higher relative permittivity material (“EEStor capacitor”) are expected to require up to 86% less material than incumbent AECs, thereby enabling the EEStor technology to potentially disrupt the multi-billion dollar market by delivering lower cost, capacitors.
Additionally, the ceramic-based dielectric material offered by EEStor is expected to allow the production of capacitors that dramatically extend the 1,000 to 10,000-hour life expectancy typically offered by AECs to decades, further increasing the expected pricing advantage of the EEStor capacitor, enabling the EEStor technology to potentially disrupt the multi-billion-dollar market by delivering lower cost, more efficient, longer lasting ceramic-based capacitors.
In 2018, the AEC market is expected to reach $4.6 billion (USD) globally1 and grow to $5.5 billion (USD) by 20222. AEC capacitors are utilized in multiple industries including alternative energy, lighting, telecommunications, automotive, military, medical and consumer electronics. AECs account for 6.5% of all capacitor shipments in terms of volume, but a full 22% of the global capacitor market in terms of U.S. dollar value.1
Ian Clifford, EEStor founder and CEO stated, “We are very pleased to publish the first in a series of market driven reports that clearly delineate the significant market potential for our technology.”

Forward-looking Statements
Certain statements and documents referred to in this release, other than statements of historical fact, may include forward-looking information that involves various risks and uncertainties that face the Company; such statements may contain such words as "may", "would", "could", "will", "intend", "plan", "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "expect" and similar expressions, and may be based on management's current assumptions and expectations related to all aspects of the power and energy storage industries, consumer demand for energy storage products and solutions and the global economy. Risks and uncertainties that may face the Company include, but are not restricted to: EEStor may not be able to replicate test results in mass produced commercial products; the EEStor capacitor and energy storage technology may not be successfully commercialized at all, in a manner providing the features and benefits expected while under development, or on a timely basis or the Company may not be able to successfully incorporate this technology into its current or proposed products or the products of others; steps taken by the Company to protect its proprietary rights may not be adequate or third parties may infringe or misappropriate the Company's proprietary rights; the Company has a history of losses from operations and may not be able to obtain financing, if and when required or on acceptable terms due to market conditions or other factors, to fund future expenditures for general administrative activities, including sales and marketing and research and development, expansion, strategic acquisitions or investment opportunities or to respond to competitive pressures; competitors may develop products which offer greater benefits to consumers, have greater market appeal or are more competitively priced than those offered by the Company; the Company may be exposed to product liability claims which exceed insurance policy limits; the Company is dependent on the ability and experience of a relatively small number of key personnel; new products introduced by the Company may not be accepted in the market or to the extent projected; new laws and regulations may be enacted or existing ones may be applied or governmental action may be taken in a manner which could limit or curtail the production or sale of the Company's products; and the Company may be negatively affected by reduced consumer spending due to the uncertainty of economic and geopolitical conditions.
These risks and uncertainties may cause actual results to differ from information contained in this release, when estimates and assumptions have been used to measure and report results. There can be no assurance that any statements of forward-looking information contained in this release will prove to be accurate. Actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.
