The President of Faraday Energy Inc., Mr. Martin Dallaire said,

“The successful business combination with Bird River will enable Faraday to expand in the green energy sector through the development and acquisition of renewable energy assets. The demand for clean renewable electricity is forecasted to grow substantially over the coming decades and our intentions are to be an active player in the sector.”

Bird River intends to complete a private placement of common shares for gross proceeds of C$5 million at $0.25 per share.

Further details of the proposed transaction will follow in future press releases once available.
