Enable IPC's Subsidiary, SolRayo, Joins Nanotechnology Consortium at University of Wisconsin
MADISON, WI--(Marketwire - April 22, 2009) - Enable IPC Corporation (PINKSHEETS : EIPC ) today
announced its subsidiary, SolRayo, LLC, has accepted an invitation to join
the Advanced Materials Industrial Consortium at the University of
Wisconsin. The Consortium gives commercial partners the opportunity to
collaborate with students and faculty in advanced materials research across
the UW-Madison campus. Information on the consortium can be found at:
http://www.uwamic.wisc.edu/.
By joining the consortium, SolRayo gains access to talented students and
faculty at the university, as well as instrumentation at university
laboratories. SolRayo is particularly interested in being able to access
the Materials Research Science and Engineering Center on Nanostructured
Interfaces (MRSEC), which was established at the university by the National
Science Foundation. More information on the MRSEC is available at:

"This opportunity provides us with a valuable resource," said SolRayo Chief
Technology Officer Kevin Leonard. "As part of this consortium we will have
access to equipment and expertise that is otherwise very difficult to come
by."
Previously, SolRayo was featured in an article published by the American
Ceramics Society Bulletin, titled "A Heroic Capacity," which discussed how
ultracapacitors complement batteries, and how several of the leading
ultracapacitor companies, including SolRayo, are working to integrate their
use in various applications. The article can be found at:

Separately, Enable IPC recently announced the shipment of its
nanoparticle-based ultracapacitor electrodes to IMDEA in Madrid. This
contract is in connection with a high profile renewable energy
demonstration project in Spain.
