Midwest Energy Emissions Corp. (OTCQB: MEEC) BREAKING NEWS: ME₂C^® Environmental Gains Additional Supply Business with Large Utility Customer, Patented Mercury Emissions Technology Licensee - Midwest Energy Emissions Corp. ("ME2C Environmental" or the "Company"), a leading environmental technologies firm, today announced that the Company has secured new supply business with a licensee of the Company's patented Sorbent Enhancement Additive (SEA®) technology for mercury emissions capture. 

The new supply business expected to continue through 2022 was gained after certain testing was completed at one of the utility's power plants located in the Midwest. The utility entered into a license agreement with the Company in 2020 that would allow continued operation of the Company's patented mercury capture technologies. In mid-2021, a new supply contract for a plant in the Midwest was announced with this utility. This additional supply business being announced today is the second new plant location under this utility's fleet to become a direct product supply customer of ME₂C in addition to the utility's plant which had already been a direct supply customer when the license agreement was signed in 2020.  

"Since partnering with this major utility as a license partner of our mercury emissions technologies, we have completed product testing to gain additional supply business," stated Richard MacPherson, Chief Executive Officer of ME₂C Environmental. "Adopting a business-first approach across the coal-fired industry, a license to operate our patented technologies allows for continued operations of our innovative approach to mercury emissions capture.  Working with us directly as a supply customer provides the plant with additional measurable benefits and bottom-line operational improvements." 

Continued MacPherson, "This new plant location operated by this significant power producer represents the second "win" toward our efforts in monetizing the value of our patents. This major utility was one of the first to enter into a license agreement in 2020 and the first to extend their agreement with one other plant announced as a supply customer in mid-2021.  This is the second plant location at this utility to augment their license to operate with direct product supply of our patented SEA technology.

"Through the next year, we expect to grow our supply business with our utilities currently operating under a license agreement, as well as enhance our strong customer base with additional license and supply partners," concluded MacPherson.  CONTINUED…  Read the MEEC full press release by going to:  https://ir.me2cenvironmental.com/press-releases
