CUI Global Announces Collaboration Agreement with

France-based ENGIE for GasPT® and VE Technology®

HOUSTON, Mar. 14, 2017 – CUI Global, Inc. (NASDAQ:CUI) has announced that its wholly-owned United Kingdom (UK) energy subsidiary, Orbital Gas Systems Ltd. (Orbital), has entered into a formal collaboration agreement with ENGIE, the global energy group based in Paris, France.

The collaboration involves joint marketing and sales of Orbital’s proprietary GasPT and VE Technology in North America, Western Europe, and Asia. Orbital and ENGIE have agreed to develop a joint commercialization plan, exchange information regarding prospective customers and cooperate on technical efforts to further develop the technologies as they apply to the French energy industry.

ENGIE, a global energy icon and an expert operator in the three businesses of electricity, natural gas and energy services, has also agreed to “present to its contacts in France and abroad, the GasPT and VE Technologies in the gas grid as well as the opportunities the technology could offer for new green gas.” ENGIE has also agreed to “assist its contacts in implementation” of the technology.

ENGIE, a multinational energy giant with 2015 annual revenues of $75.0 billion, can and will partner with Orbital to bring its unique technologies to ENGIE relationships in France, throughout Western Europe, and into Asia, where ENGIE has a significant presence.

“This new collaboration enables us to expand the reach of our innovative technologies to a wider group of natural gas operators in the Western European, North American and Asian markets,” stated William Clough, president and CEO of CUI Global. “As an internationally recognized and respected energy group renowned throughout the industry as a technology leader and active proponent of sustainable energy, climate-change mitigation and the responsible use of resources, ENGIE further validates our solutions as a means of fiscal monitoring that is far more efficient and cost-effective than those currently deployed by the industry.”

According to Bernard Blez, Head of ENGIE Lab CRIGEN “We at ENGIE are pleased to have entered into this agreement with Orbital to collaborate on these exciting technologies. We believe that the GasPT analyzers and VE Technology are unique and innovative solutions which enable differentiated opportunities in specific gas markets.”

Concluded Clough, “ENGIE joins a growing list of Orbital partners that includes some of the largest natural gas operators in the UK, Europe and the rest of the world, highlighting Orbital’s growing footprint in the global energy industry. Together, Orbital and ENGIE will work to provide more numerous and more efficient energy sources to their customers, while reducing carbon emissions and providing environmentally sensitive energy solutions.”
