About International Power Group, Ltd.:


International Power Group (IPWG) is a Waste to Energy Company specializing in Naanovo’s proprietary technology with two significant benefits: the handling of waste management in a more environmentally friendly manner, and the conversion of the energy generated from the process into meaningful amounts of cost effective electricity. Substantial amounts of purified drinking water can also be extracted from the process.


The Company plans to contract with governments to secure tipping fees for the removal of toxic and hazardous wastes and will be processing the materials in company owned and operated plants. The Company will build these plants — estimated at $250 million each — in areas that can benefit from the electricity and water production by-products of the process. The Company’s revenue streams include the tipping fees, fees for electricity, and fees for purified water. The Company will not be paying to receive the waste and will have costs limited to plant construction and operation only.
