SALT LAKE CITY, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — CleanSpark, Inc. (Nasdaq: CLSK), («CleanSpark, or the Company»), an advanced software and controls technology solutions company focused on solving modern energy challenges, today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, GridFabric has completed the process of OpenADR certification for KIGT, Inc. KIGT is an electric vehicle (EV) charging, software and technology company focusing on charging stations and related software for commercial, fleet, and residential vehicles.
CleanSpark’s EV Charging Solutions Set to Deploy Across California, Hawaii.
KIGT’s charging platform and proprietary software have now been added to the official list of OpenADR certified products. The list of entities having achieved certification, including KIGT, can be found at https://products.openadr.org/product/kigt-inc-kigt_ven/
KIGT, an Ontario, California based firm, was founded as a reseller of EV charging equipment more than a decade ago. The principals of the company identified a need within the electric vehicle sector for a more efficient, faster charging and affordable solution. The team at KIGT successfully launched a proprietary platform and began manufacturing their own products in 2014. This Open ADR certification will enable KIGT to enter new markets, participating alongside other, older EV charging companies in serving entities including major California Utilities and HECO (Hawaiian Electric Company, Inc.).
We believe the electric vehicle market is poised for exponential growth. According to McKinsey & Company, «With consumer focus shifting towards sustainability, it is anticipated that expenditure on electric vehicles will double over the next 5 years.»
Paul Francis, Co-Founder of KIGT, said of the announcement, «OpenADR certification will be a key driver for our growth in 2021, allowing us to work with leading utilities’ demand response and incentive programs. GridFabric made the process easy, as we were able to become fully certified much quicker and at a significantly lower cost than attempting the certification process alone.»
Zach Bradford, CleanSpark’s President and Chief Executive Officer stated, «GridFabric’s Plaid product is one of the fastest ways for a company like KIGT to achieve full OpenADR certification across their platform. This process allows them to participate in utility load shifting programs, rapidly. Alternatively, the process of achieving certification without this program can result in months-long delays and substantial capital expenditures. This project is yet another successful deployment of GridFabric’s unique offering within the broader EV charging industry.» Adding, «GridFabric, has continued to expand its network of customers since its acquisition by CleanSpark in 2020. Following President Biden’s remarks this week committing to the replacement of the entire Federal fleet with electric vehicles, we believe the focus on rapid certification of EV charging systems is poised to accelerate over the course of the coming years.»
Executive Chairman Matthew Schultz will also be speaking today, January 28th at 12pm Eastern at the RenMark Virtual Roadshow. To view the live presentation, CLICK HERE. A recording will be available on the Company investor website a few days after the presentation.

BETHESDA, Md., Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — With travelers dreaming of new discoveries in 2021, Sheraton Hotels & Resorts is ready to welcome them as it unveils the initial hotels around the world exemplifying the brand’s new vision: Sheraton Phoenix Downtown, USA;…
BETHESDA, Md., Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — With travelers dreaming of new discoveries in 2021, Sheraton Hotels & Resorts is ready to welcome them as it unveils the initial hotels around the world exemplifying the brand’s new vision: Sheraton Phoenix Downtown, USA; Sheraton Denver Downtown, USA; Sheraton Tel Aviv, Israel; Sheraton Grand Dubai, UAE; Sheraton Guangzhou, China and Sheraton Mianyang, China.
Following Marriott International’s announcement in 2018 of its plans to refresh the iconic brand for today’s travelers, the completion of the renovations at these hotels is an important milestone in the brand’s reinvention journey. There is now momentum building for the transformation, with over 40 hotels around the world expected to reflect the new brand vision by the end of 2022.
«This is a pivotal moment for Sheraton as we see hotel owners embracing the new vision and bringing it to life for the first time,» said Amanda Nichols, Senior Director and Global Brand Leader of Sheraton Hotels. «Over the past 80 years, Sheraton has always offered guests the time-honored assurance of a welcoming community. We’re proud to have built on this legacy in the new concept, creating an environment where guests can enjoy all the familiar comforts of the Sheraton brand, but with fresh, contemporary updates. As travel resumes, we look forward to welcoming guests into this new chapter for Sheraton.»
Drawing on its roots as a community hub for locals and guests at flagship locations globally, the new approach for Sheraton creates an intuitive and holistic experience with places to connect, be productive and feel part of something. The layered design approach, balancing a sense of timelessness with a fresh and modern feel, aims to create an environment where guests feel comfortable and at ease, whether working, meeting or relaxing.
A Modern-Day «Public Square»
At the heart of the new Sheraton experience is the lobby. This has been re-imagined as the «Public Square» of the hotel; a holistic, open space that invites people to join together or be alone amongst others, creating a sense of energy and belonging. With a flow that is natural, intuitive and uncomplicated, guests have what they need within arm’s reach, all set against an inviting backdrop that feels warm and comfortable yet refined.
Built into the new design are signature elements such as the Community Table, an inviting, purpose-built workspace that will anchor each hotel’s lobby and allow guests to work, eat and drink while soaking up the energy of the space. Following Sheraton’s philosophy to embrace both form and function, these tables are custom designed with amenities to keep guests productive, including built-in lighting, outlets and wireless charging stations.
The Studios, flexible gathering spaces available to book whenever a guest needs it, celebrate collaborative working and connecting with others in a less formal setting. Built on raised platforms and enclosed with glass, the tech-enabled Studios welcome guests to contribute to the energy of the public space while also providing privacy and focus for everything from small group meetings to private dining experiences. Soundproof booths are also strategically placed throughout the lobby, perfect for a spontaneous phone call to connect privately with friends, family or colleagues from afar.
Built with its global, productivity-focused guest in mind, Sheraton’s new elevated food & beverage philosophy creates a focal point in the lobby experience. Part bar, part coffee bar, part market, the Coffee Bar Bar is a central pillar of the new Sheraton vision, transitioning guests seamlessly from day to night with food & beverage options that are locally-sourced, easy to consume while working and customizable to accommodate all tastes and time schedules.
Guest Rooms & Club Lounges That Champion Productivity
In the new guest rooms, guests are welcomed into a bright, well-lit space with warm, residential appeal, comprised of soft finishes and light wood tones accentuated with black metal accents. The rooms have been reimagined with new tools for productivity, such as a height-adjustable work table, integrated power and charging and layered lighting; while still retaining some of the classic Sheraton signature amenities, including the luxurious Sheraton Sleep Experience platform bed. The guest bathroom has also been completely redesigned with new and modern walk-in showers and bath amenities by Gilchrist & Soames.
The Sheraton Club Lounge, an exclusive space for Marriott Bonvoy Elite members and Sheraton Club level guests, has also undergone an upgrade as part of the transformation. The new design ensures the space is welcoming, elevated and purposefully designed for a layered and engaging experience that transitions seamlessly with activations from morning to evening. Guests will find updated food and beverage offerings, premium amenities, enhanced connectivity, and 24/7 access to provide a private environment.
Commitment to Clean
Sheraton Hotels are following Marriott International’s Commitment to Clean protocols, created in partnership with leading experts in food and water safety, hygiene and infection prevention, and hotel operations. These protocols include mandated mask wearing for all associates within the hotel, and the use of disinfectants recommended by the Centers for Disease Control in the country/region where the hotel operates and the World Health Organization to sanitize surfaces in the hotels.
A Continuous Journey
There are currently 446 Sheraton hotels in 74 countries and territories around the world, making it Marriott International’s most global brand. In 2021, Sheraton Hotels will continue on its transformation journey, with the brand expecting to showcase new guest experience programs and complete renovations in locations including Nashville, USA; Toronto, Canada; Nice, France; Kiev, Ukraine; and Xi’an, China.

NEW YORK, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — iQSTEL, Inc. (USOTC: IQST) today announced a new battery development initiative targeting the burgeoning electric vehicle industry.
iQSTEL’s subsidiary, loT Labs Mx (www.iotlabs.mx), leads the company’s Technology Division. IoT Labs has for the last two years been developing an array of IoT solutions. IoT Labs, now a part of iQSTEL, is accelerating its development efforts on a battery solution for the Electric Vehicles (EV) industry with the synergies it has gained through the technology and business base provided by iQSTEL’s Telecom Division.
IoT Labs also engages in the development of other technologies. Its landmark Smart Gas technology (www.iotsmartGas.com) won the Smart Appliance of the Year award from Iot Break through (www.iotbreakthrough.com).

HAMILTON, Bermuda, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — DEWAR’S® Scotch Whisky, the world’s most awarded blended Scotch whisky, announces the launch of DEWAR’S Portuguese Smooth, showcasing the exciting flavors that are crafted when Scotland meets Portugal in a bottle. Marking the brand’s 175th anniversary this year, this new iteration of the DEWAR’S Cask Series features DEWAR’S 8 year old double-aged blended Scotch whisky, finished in ruby port casks for a rich, full-bodied blend.

Following the successful launches of DEWAR’S Caribbean Smooth Rum Cask Finish and DEWAR’S Ilegal Smooth Mezcal Cask Finish, the third edition in the brand’s double-aged blended Scotch cask-finished series reflects the brand’s passion for harmoniously bringing together unexpected flavor traits for a richer taste and experience. Perfect for both whisky aficionados and amateurs alike, DEWAR’S Portuguese Smooth features flavor notes of freshly sliced ripe apricots, honeydew melon, red cherries and black currants drizzled with heather honey – all enveloped in rich creamy notes of vanilla.
«The whisky category has a certain mythology of its own, replete with traditional conventions. We created the DEWAR’S cask-finished series to break the mold and evolve those traditions by bringing two product elaboration cultures together – in this case from Scotland and Portugal – to create something richer. Though we can’t travel to the Highlands of Scotland or the Douro Valley of Portugal this year, we crafted DEWAR’S Portuguese Smooth to engage all those with wanderlust and curiosity. The brand has long been driven by a natural curiosity and, with 2021 ringing in our 175th anniversary, we hope that DEWAR’S Portuguese Smooth will inspire people to look beyond the obvious, or their ‘usual tipple’, and to discover a new whisky that will enthrall the senses and delight the palate. It is about enjoyment, not rules, and through this we are certain that this great whisky will challenge some pre-conceived notions of what standard blended scotch whisky is about,» says Brian Cox, Vice President, DEWAR’S Scotch Whisky, North America.
«With its full bodied yet refined mouthfeel and unique flavor profile – which features subtle notes of stone fruits, dark red fruits and honey – DEWAR’S Portuguese Smooth is designed to be a veritable celebration of the two cultures of Scotland and Portugal. Thanks to a unique production process where the 8 year old scotch is double aged for extra smoothness and then finished in casks that previously held fine ruby port wines, DEWAR’S Portuguese Smooth has a satisfyingly unusual, yet super smooth, taste that is ideally enjoyed anyway you like – be it neat, on the rocks, in a highball or as a great alternative to beer and wine for food pairings. It’s really about your mood, time, place and company – be it in person or remotely,» says Stephanie Macleod, Master Blender for DEWAR’S.
Signature cocktails include The Spiced Tonic Highball and The Ginger Highball which reimagines the classic highball with a refreshing blend of stone fruit and baking spice flavors.
DEWAR’S Portuguese Smooth 8 year old port cask finish will be available in a 750ML bottle with an SRP of $21.99 and will retail in all fine wine & spirits retailers nationwide.
