New York, NY, January 24, 2020 -- UGE International Ltd. (TSXV: UGE, OTCQB: UGEID) (the "Company" or "UGE"), a leader in commercial and community solar energy solutions, is pleased to announce it has signed an agreement to develop, build, and finance a community solar project in New York City.

The Queens-based project is for a repeat client, which is a fast-growing developer of commercial and industrial buildings in the New York metropolitan area. The client's 30,000 square foot roof, in the vicinity of JFK Airport, serves as a warehousing and storage facility for an international secure logistics firm. By leasing their roof to UGE, the client will receive a significant contribution towards an upcoming roof replacement, followed by annual lease payments for 25-years.

The project is expected to generate over US$1.3 million in energy revenue during its 25-year lifetime. The cost of the project will be approximately US$0.5 million. In addition to its role as developer and builder, UGE plans to be the owner and operator of the project by sourcing project-level debt as well as a partnership with a tax-efficient investor.
