Studio City, CA -- July 18, 2018 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire
-- Petroteq Energy Inc.(“Petroteq” or the “Company”)
(TSXV:PQE; OTC:PQEFF; Frankfurt:A2DYWC), a company focused on the
development and implementation of proprietary technologies for the
energy industry, is pleased to announce its application to the
Alternative Energy Development Initiative (AEDI).
The Alternative Energy Development Initiative, part of Utah’s
Energy Action Plan, is designed to spur the growth of state
revenues and job growth in the Utah Energy Market. The incentive
represents a 75% tax reduction of new revenues including Corporate,
Sales, and withholding taxes for 20 years or the life of the
project, whichever is less.
“We have known Utah to be extremely collaborative and committed
to its ‘energy action plan’ and this is just more positive evidence
in support of that,” stated David Sealock, CEO of Petroteq.
“We have spent millions on developing our project, and we will look
for opportunities to strategically achieve targeted projects for
our technology to spend many millions more in business development,
rural job creation and workforce development in the energy mining
sector as we expand our footprint in what we believe will become
the fastest growing energy market in the US. This tax benefit will
allow us to generate even more cash that will be directly be
redeployed here in Utah to grow our Company and will provide
opportunities for jobs and economic development in Utah. The
Governor’s ten-year Strategic Energy Plan and State Energy Policy
program will deliver tangible results for Utah.”
Petroteq intends on scaling up its capacity with several
higher-capacity extraction units at its Asphalt Ridge site in Utah.
Currently, Petroteq is in Phase 2 of its plant capacity expansion
and expects to reach 1,000 bod.
