ABCO Energy Pays Off Last of the Series C Convertible Preferred

ABCO Energy, Inc (OTC PINK: ABCE) Tucson, Arizona (February 22, 2019) – ABCO Energy has raised funds and retired the last issue of the Series C convertible debt held by Redstart Holdings and was advised that Redstart has completed all of the conversions under their three preferred holdings. ABCO announced on January 31, 2019 that the Company had purchased all of the second issue of the convertible preferred held by Redstart. The proceeds from the issuances of the three Series C preferred stock were used by ABCO for working capital at the start of significant commercial jobs which are now nearly completed. Redstart converted the first of the series and ABCO purchased the last two for more than $206,000.  

Over the last ten trading days, our stock has closed above $0.01 and yesterday the close was over $0.02. We believe that this is the result of the Company’s growth and the retirement of the toxic debt. Also, we have completed the application and related corporate actions to lift the Company off from trading on the PINK Market to trading our common shares on the “Over The Counter Quality Board” (OTCQB). This level of trading will qualify our shares to trade with a much larger number of brokers and traders that do not trade on the PINK market. When it is approved, ABCO Energy, Inc. will be trading on a quality trading board on OTC Markets. ABCO Energy has not traded on the OTCQB for over three years as it has struggled to stabilize its stock price and fund its growth. We are now staging our Company for growth internally and through acquisitions and feel confident the share price will reflect this plan.

“We are very proud of the accomplishments of the ABCO team and our consultants over the last two years and feel confident we will continue to be trading well for our shareholders in the very near future” said
Charles O’Dowd, President, “and we are thankful to our shareholders for all of their assistance in reaching these accomplishments”.

ABCO ENERGY ANNOUNCES SALE OF SOLAR POWER SYSTEM FOR EPISCOPAL CHURCH

ABCO Energy, Inc. (OTC PINK: ABCE) Tucson, Arizona (February 5, 2019), the Arizona provider of integrated energy solutions, is pleased to announce the successful sale of a commercial photovoltaic system at a Tucson Episcopal Church, one of 63 congregations in the Diocese of Arizona. The system is designed to greatly reduce cost of energy and starts a significant milestone in the Diocese’s sustainability plans.

By installing 62,080 DC Watts of solar panels at this community worship center for a grand total of $185,000, the congregation will receive a savings benefit of $877,000 over 25 years. ABCO has completed several church projects for many denominations over the last few years and is proud to be supporting and contributing to their success in the community they serve.

Like all churches in the nation, this Episcopal Church has experienced higher electrical bills than most other commercial accounts because of demand billing by the utilities. Their electric bills spike during high usage on weekends that create demand charges that hold their rates higher than normal for the entire billing cycle. Solar systems will reduce billing and such reductions can help to preserve the capital of the worship centers. Since financing is readily available and is provided through ABCO, we have found that most religious centers should find it beneficial to save on electricity by utilizing solar.

“As a leading energy solutions provider, ABCO is committed to delivering innovative and cost-effective solutions. We go from start to finish with our customers, by providing financing, designing and installing the system, helping to save money on utility bills and providing “green” properties.” said Charles O’Dowd, President of ABCO. “We take extra steps to provide ongoing asset operations and maintenance.”
