Chicago, IL, March 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FOMO CORP. ( https://www.fomoworldwide.com/ - US OTC: ETFM) is pleased to announce that it has acquired the assets of the Energy Intelligence Center, LLC (“EIC” - www.EnergyIntelligenceCenter.com ). EIC provides an integrated suite of energy efficiency solutions for education, commercial, multi-family, healthcare, and industrial facilities through algorithmic software and the added benefits from strategic clean-tech partners. FOMO’s holdings, such as Purge Virus LLC ( https://purgevirus.com/ ), work well in conjunction with EIC providing the combination of ventilation and clean indoor air that collectively create safe and energy efficient schools as well as other types of facilities. FOMO’s integrated solution is appropriate and timely given the recent developments with the COVID-19 Relief Bill.
EIC’s OptikW platform uses algorithmic software to optimize kilowatts at the “heart” of HVAC equipment. It leverages ambient conditions such as temperature, humidity, and dew point, to improve the performance of existing chillers and HVAC equipment.
Other portfolio companies and strategic partners are expected to drive demand for FOMO:
- Purge Virus uses bipolar ionization to clean indoor air and reduce the requirements for as much outside replacement air, which FOMO owns.
- Independence LED Lighting uses energy saving lights to save 50% or more over traditional lights, which FOMO owns.
- Clean Peak Energy uses the thermal mass of your building as a “battery” to store temperature and reduce peak interval energy costs, which is a partner of FOMO.
- BuildingFit uses data analytics with measurement and verification to identify areas of savings and track performance, which is a partner of FOMO.
$1.9 trillion COVID-19 Relief Bill:
On Saturday, March 7th, the U.S. Senate passed the $1.9 trillion COVID-19 Relief Bill, which is to be submitted to the House of Representatives on Tuesday, March 9th. It includes $519 billion for state and local governments and schools. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines include improvements to ventilation , and each state and school district may have some discretion on spending from within the relief funding. The bill also includes sub-sets for specific types of facilities.
Energy Intelligence Center Updates:
EIC has added three new strategic relationships during the first quarter of 2021: Aircosaver, Jordan Energy, and JuiceBarEV. The links to these and the other partners are included on EIC’s Clean-Tech Partners page .
On the outreach front beyond the upcoming webinar (see below), three key first quarter developments may further provide EIC’s ongoing support for schools and businesses:
Social Media: On February 9th, EIC engaged with Seth Leitman, "Green Living Guy" for extensive social media marketing. Seth is a seasoned sustainability professional, electric car expert and green living guru, according to Fox Business News
Direct Marketing to Schools: On February 23 rd , EIC’s sibling company within FOMO CORP., Purge Virus, engaged Demand Lead Generation ( http://create-demand.com/ ) for outbound calls to prospective K-12 schools and business customers. The support sales materials specifically include references to energy savings in addition to improved indoor air quality (IAQ). This is an example of the “eco-system” synergy created within the FOMO CORP. holding companies.
Industry Recognition: On March 1 st , Manufacturing Technology Insights ( https://www.manufacturingtechnologyinsights.com/ ) magazine contacted EIC for a profile in their special edition on Industrial Cooling, which will run in their May 2021 issue to over 150,000 combined print and digital subscribers. On March 6 th , the magazine interviewed EIC’s CEO for the profile, and his input included references to air quality solutions as well as energy savings.
