Midwest Energy Emissions Corporation Retains Lytham Partners For Investor Relations 03/26 08:00 AM
WORTHINGTON, Ohio, March 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Midwest Energy Emissions Corporation (MEEC:$0.48,00$0.05,0011.63%) , announced today the retention of Lytham Partners, LLC to conduct a national investor relations program.
Midwest Energy Emissions Corporation (MEEC:$0.48,00$0.05,0011.63%) delivers to electric utilities patented and proprietary technologies to remove mercury from coal and oil-fired power plant emissions. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's ( EPA ) Mercury and Air Toxic Standards (MATS) rule requires all coal and oil-fired power plants in the U.S. - larger than 25 mega-watts - to remove 90% of the mercury from plant emissions by April 16, 2015. MEEC employs its patented technology, proven to achieve mercury reduction levels at or beyond compliance with MATS, at a significantly lower cost and with less balance-of-plant (BOP) impacts than generally used methods. These critical BOP benefits include low overall plant infrastructure, system corrosion and reduced fly-ash degradation.
John Norris, Jr., chairman and chief executive officer of Midwest Energy Emissions Corporation Company, commented, "We have made great progress in positioning MEEC to address the upcoming EPA MATS requirements for coal and oil-fired power plants. The ability to operate these plants in an environmentally responsible manner – with a cost effective mercury solution - will benefit consumers throughout the U.S. towards maintaining access and affordability to the power that is such an important part of our everyday lives."
"As we continue to execute on our strategic business plan", Mr. Norris continued, "we believe the time is right to expand our visibility within the national investment community. Lytham Partners has a demonstrated track record of broadening the visibility of leading-edge companies with disruptive technologies that deliver a unique value proposition to the markets they serve. We look forward to a great collaboration that will enhance shareholder value in the years to come."
Joseph Diaz, managing partner of Lytham Partners, LLC, commented, "We are highly impressed with the capabilities of MEEC's patented and proprietary technology to address the requirements of the EPA's mercury reduction emissions mandate. In addition to the regulatory requirements that need to be met, there is also a strong social imperative to produce electrical power in an environmentally friendly manner. We believe that MEEC's technology can be the leading-edge solution to accomplish these highly desired results. Additionally, the MEEC management team has more than 85 years of utility industry experience and a high level of credibility among their current and future customers. We are pleased to have been chosen by the company for this important assignment."
