Technology Developed by Former PG&E Professionals
HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / August 29, 2023 / Camber Energy, Inc. (NYSE American:CEI) ("Camber" or the "Company"), and its joint venture partners are pleased to officially introduce for use by utilities around the world an expanded portfolio of fully developed, patent pending, ready-for-market proprietary Electrical Transmission and Distribution Open Conductor Detection Systems designed to detect unsafe and hazardous conditions for transmission lines and distribution lines of any length and any voltage.
The systems are designed to immediately identify (within a tenth of a second or less) when a conductor breaks or opens and to instantly de-energize the appropriate source of power, whether it be from a transmission line or distribution line. This novel approach affords our technology a unique advantage in detecting open conductors before they make contact with the ground.
Robert Stuart, co-founder of the Camber Protection System and former Manager of Operations Engineering of PG&E, stated "I have spent years applying all of my knowledge, expertise and focus toward this issue and am extremely pleased to announce we have a fully tested solution that every utility company or self-powered institution in North America, indeed the world, should explore for the best interests of its customers, employees and neighboring communities."
James Doris, Camber's President & CEO, stated "After recently completing steps to further enhance and protect our intellectual property portfolio through a series of additional patent applications, we were planning this fall to introduce the technology to a broader audience beyond the select few utilities that have been privy to its existence and features so far. But given the unfortunate circumstances and hardship being endured in places like Hawaii, California, Western Canada and other parts of the world we thought it was essential to expedite our product launch so other organizations can reach out directly to learn how we can assist".
The system owned by Camber and/or its joint venture partners differs from conventional technology in that it does not wait for a short circuit (or fault) to occur. Conventional technologies that have been used over the last 50 years rely on a short circuit to occur, meaning a conductor must either touch another conductor, touch ground or touch a grounded structure which causes a short circuit that conventional technology normally recognizes and shuts off the power source - this is too late to prevent an incendiary event.
Camber and its joint venture partners' products include software-based solutions that can be quickly and cost-effectively deployed within a utility's existing protective relay infrastructure, allowing the utility to protect its grid with greater confidence and reliability.
Existing Public Safety Power Shutdown Programs (PSPS) are Insufficient.

ESG Clean Energy's Technology Designed to make C02-Capture Economically Viable
HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / August 4, 2023 / Camber Energy, Inc.

Water - The Key to Carbon Capture
ESG Clean Energy Expands IP Portfolio with Filing of New Patent / ESG's technology makes carbon capture economically viable
WEST SPRINGFIELD, Mass. - (Aug. 3, 2023) - ESG Clean Energy is pleased to announce the filing of a new patent application with the US Patent & Trademark Office covering ESG Clean Energy's unique water removal system. The new filing is in addition to 8 previously issued patents with respect to ESG's Clean Energy System.
ESG is about to demonstrate, at an existing power project in Holyoke, Massachusetts, how its revolutionary system improves carbon capture.
[…]
When capturing CO2 either from the atmosphere or from a combustion process like a gas-fired power plant, a common issue that must be dealt with is the presence of water in the system. Water is always present in relatively large quantities. In the atmosphere water can be as much as 100 times the amount of CO2. In a combustion exhaust stream the water and CO2 are in about equal amounts that make up almost 40% of the total volume.
Water interferes with the capturing of CO2, making it much more difficult to regenerate or purge the medium that is capturing the CO2. Removing water from a gas mixture like the atmosphere or exhaust can be very complicated. In fact, there is a field of engineering called Psychrometrics that studies the physical and thermodynamic properties of similar gas-vapor mixtures. Removing the water from a gas mixture can take a large amount of energy and can require large and expensive equipment.
However, if the water can be removed without requiring large amounts of cost and energy, then carbon capture would be economically feasible and relatively easy to accomplish. It also can be applied to both large and small systems such as large power facilities or individual buildings.
ESG's system consists of a unique membrane condenser coupled with a hybrid absorption/compression cooling system. The technology involves many complex features including heterogenous nucleation, transport membrane condensers, dew points, saturation level, capillary condensation, and relative humidity.
Put simply, the technology can be described as a way of getting water to separate from a gas mixture in a similar way that water from the atmosphere forms dew on grass in the morning. The gas is cooled by a rather special heat exchanger that both cools the gas and separates the water by having it pass through a ceramic membrane. The water ends up on one side of the membrane while the rest of the gases remain on the other side. The cooled and dry exhaust then flows to a carbon capture system where the CO2 is captured without the interference of the water previously in the system.

HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / July 24, 2023 / Camber Energy, Inc.'s (NYSE American:CEI) ("Camber" or the "Company") majority-owned subsidiary, Viking Energy Group, Inc. ("Viking"), announced today that Viking's majority-owned subsidiary, Viking Protection Systems, LLC ("Viking Protection"), received a Notice of Allowance from the United States Patent & Trademark Office ("USPTO") for utility patent application No. 17/672,422 titled "Electric Transmission Line Ground Fault Prevention Systems Using Dual, High Sensitivity Monitoring". This prospective patent is in addition to the prospective patent announced by Viking on May 30, 2023.
A Notice of Allowance is issued after the USPTO makes the determination that a patent should be granted from an application, and a patent from the recently allowed application is expected to be issued in the coming weeks.
James Doris, President & Chief Executive Officer of Camber and Viking, commented, "We continue to expand and strengthen our IP portfolio related to this important technology which will assist with much needed modernization and grid-stability initiatives around the world."
The prospective patents relate to Viking Protection's proprietary transmission line ground fault prevention systems, which are designed to detect a break in a transmission line, or coupling failure, and to immediately de-energize the line, thus preventing an energized high voltage transmission line from contacting ground or a grounded structure. The technology is designed to be an integral component within a much-needed, worldwide grid hardening and stability initiative by electric utilities to improve resiliency and reliability of existing infrastructure. Viking Protection's software-based solution can be deployed within a utility's existing protective relay infrastructure, allowing the utility to protect its grid with greater confidence and reliability.
