TORONTO, Sept. 23, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clear Blue Technologies International Inc. (“Clear Blue”) (TSXV: CBLU), the Smart Off-Grid™ Company, announces it was once again named amongst Canada’s top growing companies in the 2022 Report on Business ranking of Canada’s Top Growing Companies.

Canada’s Top Growing Companies ranks Canadian companies on three-year revenue growth. Clear Blue Technologies earned its spot with a three-year growth of 116%. This recognition follows Clear Blue’s number 13 (of the 25 public companies) ranking in Corporate Knights’ Future 50: the Fastest Growing Sustainable Companies in Canada.

Clear Blue Technologies is a market leader in clean, managed, Smart Off-Grid power to meet the global need for reliable, low-cost, off-grid power for lighting, telecom, satellite Wi-Fi, Internet of Things devices, and other mission-critical systems. Recently, Clear Blue signed major partnerships with Avanti Wireless, Viasat, YahClick, Global Communications Extension Services. An independent study with Meta showed Smart Off-Grid had 40% lower costs than traditional solar off-grid systems.

“Our recognition by The Globe and Mail, for the second year in a row, shows the consistent upward growth of our company, the innovation of our team and our commitment to providing cost-effective and sustainable, Smart Off-Grid power for the world,” said Miriam Tuerk, CEO and co-Founder of Clear Blue.

“With the development of our new Pico-Grid power system for Wi-Fi and IoT, to complement our Nano-Grid power system for telecom, we have expanded our market potential. Currently, we have a large, global addressable market, and have identified an opportunity pipeline of $450 million, across the 37 countries where we currently operate. We look to expand beyond this with new opportunities in the satellite Wi-Fi market. As we indicated in our Q2 2022 MD&A, the wireless cellphone market is currently the Company’s largest growth opportunity, and the global market for Telecom Tower Power systems will grow from USD 3.9 billion in 2022 to USD 5.4 billion by 2027, at a 7.1% CAGR from 2022 to 2027. (Researchandmarkets.com). With our current market share under 1% within this addressable market and our outstanding team, we have a long runway for revenue growth.”
