DALLAS, TX, July 12, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Zenergy Brands, Inc. (Ticker: ZNGY), the nation's leading next-generation utility, announced today that its flagship service offering known as the Zero Cost Program continues to gain traction in the marketplace. In a recent Form 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the company reported material sales activity and a change in assets that are directly attributable to recent Zero Cost customers.

In June, the Company entered into Zero Cost Services Agreements with customers in the private sector, with aggregate contract values totaling $1,044,182.04. The respective agreements are for 7-year terms. One of the Zero Cost agreements is with U.S.-based, bitcoin mining operation known as  BitPlus, Ltd . BitPlus is utilizing an innovative energy sourcing strategy encompassing a micro-grid approach, which gives them a unique competitive advantage in the bitcoin mining industry.

Zenergy CEO, Alex Rodriguez, remarked, “We were honored to have been chosen by BitPlus as their energy solutions provider; and moreover, we are excited about the growth potential associated with being a key vendor for this fast-growing bitcoin mining company. We are hopeful that this will be the first of many to come.”

Through its flagship Zero Cost Program, Zenergy continues to provide conservation and sustainability products and services to commercial, industrial, and municipal end-use customers at no upfront cost while giving them an economic benefit and reducing demand on the national grid via a reduction of utility consumption. In the case of BitPlus, Zenergy was able to customize its Zero Cost services agreement to accommodate this innovative approach to energy sourcing within the burgeoning cryptocurrency industry.

BitPlus CEO and Co-Founder, Tom Blasen, commented, “The Zero Cost approach allows us to implement our unique method to sourcing electricity for our mining operation, while also allowing us to focus on our core business.”
