NEW ERA ENERGY SIGNS MOU WITH UNITED NATIONS IFAD PROGRAMME

(March 2012) NEW ERA ENERGY has signed a mulit-year MOU with the United Nations IFAD programme in Nigeria to provide wind powered water supply and irrigation solutions across all of Northern Nigeria.  Initially the MOU is for 7 states in Northern Nigeria.  IFAD had been looking for a viable wind solution company in Nigeria for almost 2 years before deciding to partner with NEW ERA ENERGY.  The benefits from the programme are anticipated to include:

an increased availability of water to thousands of people and head of liverstock;
an ability to farm all year and have multiple harvest;
an increase in crop yields and as a consequence farmers incomes;
an ability to create significant amounts of employment; and
a reduced degradation of the environement compared to diesel/petrol powered sites.


NEW ERA ENERGY will deploy a mixture of mechanical wind pumps and wind turbines to meet these needs.
