VANCOUVER, BC, Canada -- April 10, 2019 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire
-- Universal mCloud Corp. (TSX-V: MCLD) (OTCQB: MCLDF) ("mCloud" or the
"Company"), a leading provider of asset management solutions
combining IoT, cloud computing, artificial intelligence ("AI"), and
analytics, today provided an update on the progress being made
across all of its business segments, highlighting numerous advances
in executing its business plan around the world:
Smart Buildings: First shopping center connected to
AssetCare in expansion effort to over 1,000 malls
across China
Within mCloud's Smart Buildings segment, the Company announced
that AssetCare connectivity has been established for the Heiwado
Shopping Center in Changsha, Hunan Province, China.
This marks a major milestone in the implementation of a nine-year
shopping center contract originally announced on January
2019 with partner SCN Ltd. ("SCN").
With mCloud's AssetCare solution, the Company will begin
continuous management of the store's HVAC systems using AI and
analytics – delivering ongoing energy savings, curbing the costly
41% of energy currently used by Heiwado at this mall for heating
and cooling.
The Heiwado Shopping Center represents the first in an expansion
effort with SCN to take AssetCare to over 1,000 shopping centers
across Greater China, representing a portfolio of over 40,000
connectable assets.
Wind: mCloud moving forward with delivering AssetCare
analytics for two wind projects this month
On the back of mCloud's recently announced strategic
collaboration with Britwind, an affiliate of UK's Ecotricity,
in March 2019, mCloud's Wind team is applying AssetCare
analytics to improve wind turbine availability and extend the
health of wind turbines associated with two wind projects, one
based in continental Europe and another based
in China.
In addition to the over 1,000 Endurance E-series wind turbines
positioned for upgrades between mCloud and Britwind, these projects
represent additional opportunities for mCloud to access a further
90,000 wind turbines as connected assets.
Oil and Gas: mCloud and Fulcrum Automation Technologies
plan initial roll-out targeting 200 assets across North
America and the Middle East
Related to the Company's February 2019 announcement of
a US$15M global service agreement with Fulcrum Automation
Technologies ("Fulcrum"), mCloud and Fulcrum are jointly working on
a plan to target at least 200 oil and gas assets as part of a
greater strategy to access thousands of field assets in North
America and the Middle East.
Using the Company's AssetCare platform, mCloud and Fulcrum will
apply AI and analytics to a variety of maintenance and inspection
applications that support these assets, from monitoring fugitive
emissions to assisting field workers in field repair and overhaul
activities.
"Getting AssetCare connected to a multitude of assets across all
segments of our business is a remarkable start to 2019,"
said Russ McMeekin, mCloud's President and CEO. "We look
forward to making even more progress over the course of this year
as we incorporate more into AssetCare."
As announced on March 28, 2019, mCloud will hold an
earnings call to discuss 2018 performance and provide
forward-looking insight on April 24, 2019. Conference details
will be provided at a later date.
