FROM THE DESK OF ROD LIGHTHIPE
Happy New Year and from all of us at ConectiSys, we hope all of our shareholders enjoyed the holiday season with your family and friends.
The Company is beginning 2007 with a great sense of optimism. After exploring many opportunities to diversify Company operations and assets during 2006, we successfully completed a strategic relationship in late November with Trimark Associates of Folsom, California. Trimark is a certified Meter Service Provider (MSP) and Meter Data Management Agent (MDMA) in California and various other States.
The Company’s relationship with Trimark completes a long term CNES goal and will enable us to provide a comprehensive all-in-one service to future customers including electric meter technology, installation, service, data management and customer billing. We are now a “one stop shop.”
That being said …Trimark also provides CNES a base of existing customers to which we can market out metering technology and engineering capabilities. This marketing relationship has already borne fruit. At this time, I can tell our shareholders that we are in final negotiations with a major commercial customer in California to install our wireless communications technology to read electric meters. We should be announcing this contract in the near future.
It is my sincere belief that this pending announcement will be followed by additional milestone events in 2007 as the entire CNES management team strives to increase shareholder value.

ADVANCED METERING PENETRATION AND THE REGULATORY CHALLENGES
By Jonathan Spencer Jones
Demand response has an important role to play in both the wholesale and retail electricity market in the US – but advanced meeting and the other technologies needed to support significant demand response deployment as yet have little market penetration.
These are among the main conclusions of the Federal Energy regulatory Commission’s (FERC) Staff Report “Assessment of Demand Response and Advanced Metering”, prepared as a requirement of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct 2005) (EPAct 2005) to review these and other demand response issues following the enactment of the Act.
“The fact that we were specifically asked by congress to review advanced metering is recognition of its importance in demand response”, says FERC economist David Kathan, who led the team that prepared the report. “And we also aimed to provide information that would be useful for discussions at the state level on advanced metering.
For the purpose of the study demand response was defined as: “Changes in electric usage by end-use customers from their normal consumption patterns in response to changes in the price of electricity over time, or use at time or incentive payments designed to induce lower electricity use at times of high wholesale market prices or when system reliability is jeopardized.”
This then allows demand response to be categorized into tow groups - incentive-based demand response., including direct load control, interruptible/curtailable rates, demand bidding/buyback programmes, emergency demand response programmes, capacity market programmes and ancillary services market programmes; and time-based rates, including time-of-use rates, critical peak pricing, and real time pricing.
“The study found that the penetration of AMI is 5.9% across the US…”
The study, which was based on a survey of 3,365 organizations across the US representing all aspect of its electricity industry, found that demand response is so fare not widespread, with only about 200 entities offering programmes to only 5% of the customer base. The most common programmes are direct load control, interruptible/curtailable programmes, and time-of-use rates.
These existing programmes provide a total potential demand response resource contribution estimated at about 37,500 MW, with the largest contributions in most regions from the wholesale and industrial sectors. This corresponds to a potential (relative to summer peak demand) between 3% to 7% in most regions, except in the Midwest (the North American Electric Reliability Councils Midwest Reliability Organization region) where it is up to 20%.
ADVANCED METERING PENETRATION
The study found that the penetration of advanced meting infrastructure (AMI) is 5.9% across the US, ranging from zero deployment to 11 states to the highest of almost 53% in Pennsylvania, somewhat less than earlier estimates that had put the penetration at closer to 10%.
“In context advanced meting is a system that records consumption at least hourly and retrieve these reads at least daily,” says Kathan.
However, when the figures are broken down they reveal some interesting facts. First there are regional variations, with the greatest penetration, 14% and above, in the NERC’s Reliability First Corporations and Southwest Power Pool regions (the Mid-Atlantic and portions of the Midwest and the Midsouth respectively).
All the other regions have lower than average penetration, as low as 1% in the Western Electricity Coordinating Council region.

From the desk of Rod Lighthipe
As many of our shareholders will recall, I stated in the January / 2007 newsletter that a significant milestone for the Company was eminent. At this time, I am pleased to announce that ConectiSys has received its first contract to install the CNES HNET™ based technology in a commercial and revenue producing setting. The initial value of this work is valued at approximately $ 500,000. A press release regarding this contract was made to the public financial markets on January 30th follow link to CNES Press. This work involves the placement of our wireless network in an agricultural setting and its associated irrigation pumps and transmitting the electric meter data from the pumps to an MDMA (Meter Data Management Agent). In this instance, the MDMA is our Strategic Partner, Trimark Associates.
Assuming a successful installation and a satisfied customer, I expect follow on contracts with this same customer that will provide additional revenue for the Company over the next several years.
That being said … this is the Good News. The even better news is that several other opportunities for the commercial deployment of CNES technology and networks appear to be developing quickly. I hope to announce those developments in the very near future.
In conclusion, I believe 2007 will be our “break out” year at CNES

Please note: The Company will be sending a supplemental report on the 20th of this month.
From the Desk of Rod Lighthipe
Marsha Casspi, the CNES Director of Marketing, and I have collaborated this month on a summary of where we believe the State of the Industry is regarding AMR. We also give you an insight into how we monitor industry milestones and progress.
See you next month........
State of the Industry
Keeping up to date with the energy industry and its progress is of up most importance to the Company. Through research, we see that our continued vision and path to market are right on target. The challenges of Advanced Metering in this new emerging energy market are an up hill climb for the changing energy industry at large.
One of our major sources for our research here at ConectiSys is Chartwell.
Chartwell is one of the US independent information services company providing best practices research and analysis to the utility and energy industry.
Utility and energy industry professionals from more than fifty countries depend on Chartwell’s research.
On a daily basis, Chartwell researchers and editors focus solely on the utility and energy industry conducting in-depth interviews, analysis, and industry surveys in order to document strategic developments in the industry.
Chartwell was specifically asked by congress to review advanced metering which is a great recognition of the important role they play in this evolving industry. Chartwell brings their in depth research together for the utility management professionals to focus on the state of the industry, sharing their expertise and experiences. They tackle the toughest issues of the day in today’s energy market. They also aim to provide this information that would be useful for discussions at the state level on advanced metering“
Today’s, discussions throughout the US are focused on Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI). The question…How quickly should the utilities move forward with systems that use real time/time of use or interval meters with two way communications and new data management?
Clearly, most utilities are addressing the potential of advanced metering needs of all customers. Few want to risk getting seriously behind the technology adoption curve. The need to embrace Automated Meter Reading (AMR) has been around for two decades. And after a slow start, penetration levels have risen to almost 25% in the US. The great need for a real time flow of information is still being highly sought out as the solution in this slow but surly evolving market.
Why the long winding road to deregulation…
• Utilities Concerns and Barriers to Market Entry
• Conquering Advanced Metering Costs and Risks
• Weighing the cost and benefits
• Danger of committing too early in today’s technology
• The Regulatory Dilemma
• Policy catching up with technology maturity
• Technology Risks/forcing premature technology choices
• Will it improve outage response and cut field working costs?
• And much more…
Finally, will AMI/AMR live up to its promises to increase significantly the accuracy of load forecasting and management and extend cost savings programs to new audiences and customers?
Many utilities are rolling out advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) systems in the near future, or plan to do so. However, another one of their major concerns… once they have advanced meters and the communications system that records and transmits interval data, where do they store all of this data? What’s more, what can they do with this data?
ConectiSys’ Value of Being Certified as a Meter Data Management Systems/Agent (MDMS)…
Meter Data Management Systems (MDMS) – next generation technology (HNET™) that merges the ability to store and utilize meter data. Whereas utilities with AMI/AMR previously used data warehouses or CIS/billing systems, or still do, many are now migrating to MDMS. In one popular configuration, MDMS operates as the utility’s central hub, serving many departments.
Because of the important role MDMS can play, many professionals see benefits in deploying these systems before installing AMR technologies. Some industry experts believe once MDMS is integrated system-wide, it will be easier to integrate AMR (HNET™ technology) to MDMS, rather than vice-versa.
In summary…MDMS/AMI are the wave of the future. The industry will continue to explore the value in new technologies, and utility/customer benefits driving MDMS/AMR system development.
How much meter data that is useful, who should have ownership of these systems and will the customer be able to manage their usage and cost? These questions and issues are being aggressively addressed by the industry and will be leading the way in this new and exciting development of the energy market.
