The issuer / publisher is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Toronto, Canada - (For immediate release) - April 30, 2010 AsiaPac Capital Services Ltd.: Deutsche Börse symbol: 5AP (www .asiapaccapital.ca), is pleased to advise that its subsidiary, Asiapac Green Renewable Energy Corp. reports that construction of its first biogas project in the Philippines is proceeding on schedule. Excavation for the anaerobic treatment tank is almost complete, and construction of the side walls is well under way. When complete, the treatment tank will process animal waste from 300 sows and 200 cows. When operational, the project will divert greenhouse gas emissions from the animal waste and convert the captured methane into electrical power to run the farm. Methane is the second largest contributor to greenhouse gasses that can be attributed to man's activity. Importantly, methane gas is twenty times more effective than carbon dioxide at trapping heat in the atmosphere. Of the 300 million tons of methane that we generate each year, about one fourth is from domestic animals. The methane generated by the manure fermentation of five pigs is enough to cook three hot meals each day for an average family. Cow dung gas is 55-65% methane, 30-35% carbon dioxide, with some hydrogen, nitrogen and other traces. The manure produced by one cow in one year can be converted to methane equivalent to over 50 gallons of gasoline. Thus, the methane harvested from the cow manure alone on this project will be in the order of nearly 2.25 million cubic feet of natural gas a year or the equivalent of 10,000 gallons of gasoline. Additionally, the remaining sludge that will be treated by the processor is an excellent fertilizer. It will be practically odourless, entirely free of harmful bacteria, and much richer in nitrogen than manure composted in an open-air heap. Company President, Mr. Samuel Lee, advises; 'We are committed to bringing renewable energy into the Philippine market, in line with government policy. This project, unlike our mini-hydro stations, has the added benefit of diverting greenhouse gas emissions while generating electricity. We anticipate that there will be significant excess electricity that can be fed back into the national grid from this project, while at the same time, providing for all the electrical needs of our client.'
