Renewable Energy Initiative

PAK has created a new special purpose vehicle (SPV) to invest into the renewables energy space. The first investment is being made into GP Hydro Pte Ltd, a JV company owned by Pacific American Holding and Austrian hydro power generation experts Global Hydro GmbH. The Company will focus on the implementation and development of hydro and hybrid projects in Australia and the South Pacific. The Company’s SPV will look to develop other similar businesses over the next 12‐24 months.

Industries

The Company will be looking at developing projects in the hydro space initially and will branch out into other areas such as solar once the JV has a number of projects in the pipeline.

GP Hydro Pte Ltd

GP Hydro Pte Ltd will offer Global Hydro’s smarT product suite throughout Australia and the Pacific. The Company will have its own independent management team and board comprised of people from both companies as well a newly recruited Chief Executive officer.

About the SmarT

Unlike other micro hydro plants, the smarT comes in a self‐contained shipping container unit that can be monitored from anywhere in the world. The technical team in Austria at Global Hydro can monitor the plants live and offer a range of other services. The other unique aspect of the smarT is that you can add any range of other alternate energy supplies onto the plants. The plants start at 100KW and can be built up to 2MW which is perfect for off grid solutions such as mining and remote communities.

SmarT Overview

  • smarT is an economic product ideal for outputs of 100kW to 2MW per unit.

  • smarT power stations are fully assembled at the factory

  • Ready‐to‐use power plant delivered in a 20ft container.

  • smarT can be combined with other technologies

  • Solar and wind energy

  • Battery storage for optimized operation

  • Low operating costs and sustainable technology with no environmental impact
