ZBB Energy Announces Issuance of Patent for ZBB EnerSection(TM) Power & Energy Control Center (PECC)

MILWAUKEE, WI — (Marketwire) — 09/07/11 — ZBB Energy Corporation (NYSE Amex: ZBB), a leading developer of intelligent, renewable energy power platforms, today announced that it has received U.S. patent #8,008,808 “Method and apparatus for controlling a hybrid power system,” relating to the Company-s ZBB EnerSection Power and Energy Control Center (formerly branded as ZESS POWR PECC).

The ZBB EnerSection is a patented hybrid power conversion system that can support the integration of nearly any combination of onsite generating sources. When supplied with the Company-s ZBB EnerStore flow batteries or other energy storage devices, the platform creates an expandable system that independently optimizes the supply of each generating source. This integrated energy management platform is the world-s only platform that is configurable, modular, and scalable for on grid, off grid and grid back-up applications. Each system combines advanced power and energy controls plus energy storage that supports renewable energy sources and other power inputs. The ZBB EnerSection system is a factory built and tested system uniquely configured to each customer-s application.

“The issuance of the patent strengthens our proprietary market position for the application of this technology. The ZBB EnerSection can be used with a variety of storage technologies, because the optimal solution for a given application may be a hybridized set of storage solutions. We work with numerous manufacturers of a variety of storage technologies to ensure delivery of the best platform,” said Eric Apfelbach, President and CEO.
