NEW YORK--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--GreenWorld Development Inc (OTCBB: GREW): The Company is pleased to announce its plan to develop and build 200MWT of utility scale Waste to Energy Power Plants across USA, EU and Asia until 2016 emerging as a global player in the fast growing sector.

"The company is proud to announce the engagement of a professional team with solid global expertise to drive and to support the companya™s mission and growth strategy. Further and additional management members will join the team soon"
GreenWorlda™s first UK Waste to Energy Centre will be based in Market Warsop in Nottinghamshire (UK). The site consists of 2.5 acres with sufficient area to install the aTyre to Energya plant and CHP to generate 7MW of renewable energy. The site has a waste transfer license allowing it to take in 100 tons of tyres per day, which provides sufficient feed stock for the planned energy generation; there is also space for the storage of 500,000 tyres. The company is in discussions to acquire further licenses in the UK and USA, in addition to the development of its OHIO facilities.
In a global market expected to reach $28.8 billion USD by 2015 as per market analysts, and with very few international players on a utility scale, the company plans to take advantage as first movers and to grow its business organically as well as through merger and acquisition of existing facilities in the target markets aiming at creating a consolidated portfolio of utilities globally and develop into an industry key player, says[ Leo J. Heinl ], GreenWorld Development Inc, CEO. aThe company is proud to announce the engagement of a professional team with solid global expertise to drive and to support the companya™s mission and growth strategy.
