Overview


We commenced our development stage on April 15, 2002.  The Company has spent approximately the last two years initiating and developing our Waste to Energy (“WTE”) technology business plan.  Initial steps in that process were negotiation for the opportunity to construct WTE Plants in Mexico and Saudi Arabia. As part of our continued effort to tap into the current opportunities provided by alternative energy sources and environmental issues associated with global warming, we have recently initiated contacts within the US and are working on a joint venture to build a WTE plant in the US mainland. We have also been in contact with other countries in the Caribbean interested in building WTE facilities to reduce their dependence on oil to produce energy and reduce waste accumulation.


The second step in developing our business plan was to find sources that could assist us to raise the capital required to build and begin operating WTE facilities.  We have revamped our business plan and have retained the services of expert professionals to make sure we can effectively obtained financing. We are currently working with various sources willing to finance the company and its projects, including the Add-Power technology.


IPWG has not had any revenues and cumulative losses of $34.6 million since inception.  Accordingly, a comparison of our financial information for accounting periods would likely not be meaningful or helpful in making an investment decision regarding our Company.


 In July 2006, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s Presidency of Meteorology and Environment issued to us an environmental license, which will enable us to establish WTE plants in the country.  This license is active for three years and could be renewed with the ministry approval.

At the present time, we are waiting for receipt of the waste characterization report and the environmental impact studies to be able to obtain the permits from some of the projects that we have been pursuing in the different geographic areas and continue assessing the capital requirement for these projects. Due to the unavailability of financing for these projects, we have not been able to complete them by the pre-established deadline. Although our previous estimate for revenues was for the 4th quarter of 2008, and calendar year 2009, we believe a fair estimate based on the current financial and economic situation will be to have incoming revenue by the second quarter of year 2010. Our assessment of the construction timeframe since permit release to revenue generation may take six months. Therefore, in view of the above, a delay in the project revenue target date until 2010 is prudent at this time.

 Once all permits are in place, and facilities are prepared for waste collection, we expect to begin realizing operating revenues from waste disposal fees to be collected from municipalities and other waste management related companies in the areas were our projects are located. This is the first phase of our plan before we begin the construction of WTE facilities. Although we believe that it is reasonable to expect revenue from our first WTE energy plant to commence by year 2011 (after the completion of the construction of the first plant), many factors exist that are beyond our control that could delay or even prevent this from happening. These factors include but are not limited to: construction delays, political unrest and severe economic turndowns. Our strategy to construct plants in the US will help us in balancing the risk associated with our offshore projects on this regard.

In October 2006, we purchased proprietary patented technologies, Add-Power, a low temperature turbine (LTT), and Scrub Power, a special emission-to-energy system from three Swedish entities, Anovo AB Angelholm, Add-Power AB Angelholm, and SUPE Ltd for a total consideration of $2.8 million. The prototype has been substantially upgraded through the incurrence of additional research and development costs. We spent around $125,847 during year 2007 and are looking to patent new technology that will make the product more competitive and efficient. It has been tested and results have been drawn from its operating capacity at a Steel Mill in Sweden under a contract arrangement.


The acquisition of these technologies will allow us to convert greater quantities of heat, produced from boilers and turbines, and potentially increase the output of salable electricity by 20 to 30% or more over technologies that are currently available. We also believe that the LTT technology will provide us with an extremely efficient “low-temp turbine” which is powered by a proprietary fluid to drive the turbine and produce



Page 12 of 22



electricity at approximately 200° F, whereas most conventional boilers and turbines can only produce electricity at temperatures between 600° - 800° F.


We believe that we will be able to sell these technologies to other companies in the energy industry in order to help them increase their output of electricity. The Company also plans to use these technologies to increase the efficiency of its own planned WTE facilities.  We believe we will begin to receive orders for our Add-Power units in 2009, soon after we have completed the testing and establish the manufacturing process. Other applications are being explored to expand its use and expand our market opportunities for alternate energy sources.


We have presented Add-Power to potential investors through our business plan and have received positive response. We believe financing for Add-Power will be possible to meet our 2009 revenue target for this product. However, we make no assurances on the outcome of our negotiations and of any other factors out of our control that may change investor’s perception of value and return.


It should be noted that our independent auditors have concluded that there are many factors regarding our company and its operations that raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and consequently, its ability to raise capital.


Plan of Operation


Because we did not have sufficient financing (debt and/or equity) during the last fiscal year, our Plan of Operation has not significantly changed from our plan indicated in our 10K Report for the year ended December 31, 2007 and during the six month period ended in June 30, 2008


Prior to the adoption of our present business plan, we investigated the option of engaging in the management of low-level radioactive waste as a result of our acquisition of Terra Mar Environmental Systems, Inc. (TMES) assets.  We determined not to pursue that business because of the time and expense of compliance with government regulation in the field.


Our operating plan for year  2008 and thereafter has three components: (1) to complete negotiations to begin a Land field operation and the construction of WTE project in Egypt and Saudi Arabia, (2) complete the research and development of our Add-Power electrical generating unit to make it a commercially viable product, and 3) to continue our existing program of introducing WTE technology to governments and others charged with responsibility to manage solid waste and/or provide potable water and electricity to various population segments.  In furtherance of this general plan, we have self-imposed the following goals:



Research and Development

On going


Although we have raised $1,535,097 in equity financing and obtained loans to finance the operation, we have not reached the $30 million dollar target required for a full deployment of our resources and execution of the plan., We continue our funding campaign and have been making strides by re focusing our strategy and finding new players with synergies that increases the probability of a successful business relationship.



Page 13 of 22




Research and Development


We do not expect to establish a discrete program of research or development as part of our business plan.  We expect to expend our research and development efforts towards “on the job” training.  We intend to cooperate with our development partners to develop efficient WTE technology customized to each customer’s needs.  We intend to share the learning from each project and application to improve all areas of existing WTE technology from air scrubbing to waste disposal.


We have invested in research and development for the Add-Power unit and have tested it under a contract with an operating steel mill in Sweden. The machine has been upgraded and has been performing better than expected, but it will require additional upgrading and design to be able to produce at different outputs in different applications. We are in the process of seeking funding to take the prototype to a design stage and line up the manufacturing of the units.


Purchase of Plant and Equipment


The development and construction of each proposed WTE facility will be dependent on: (i) locating appropriate land and obtaining permits for a WTE facility, (ii) obtaining significant external financing (including related financial guaranty and risk insurance) for purchase of materials and equipment and construction of facilities and (iii) securing contracts for delivery of waste and sales of byproducts necessary to produce revenues sufficient to cover debt service and operation costs. To that regard, we have moved into strategic alliances that allow us for a low cost entry into the markets we are exploring. This will make us move swiftly into some projects and allow us to generate revenues at a low cost possible. In the event we are not able to finance one or more proposed WTE facilities, we would be forced to abandon any such projects.


WTE Facility Finance


Our plan to build one or more WTE facilities will require significant capital, which we do not currently have. We intend to finance the construction and operation of WTE facilities through a combination of loans and securitization of income from long-term contracts for tipping fees, power and potable water sales.  We have been pursuing strategic alliances to provide a stronger position by leveraging experience, track record and managerial expertise in WTE design, construction and operation. With this new approach, we believe that we will be successful in securing such financing although no assurance can be given.  We have entered into an agreement with Marsh USA, Inc., an international insurance broker with the ability to provide financial guaranty insurance and risk management, to locate insurance for our projects.


On September 30, 2008, we entered into a modification of a joint venture agreement with ForeverGreen Enterprises to build a WTC plant in Indiana. The original agreement was initially entered on September 5, 2008. See our Current Reports filed on Form 8-K September 11 and October 7, 2008. The agreement, as modified, requires us to make a total capital contribution of 11.5 million dollars as follows:


§

$500,000 on October 15, 2008;

§

$2,000,000 on October  31, 2008;

§

$4,500,000 on November 28, 2008; and

§

$4,500,000 after certain agreement milestones are reached.


We are in default on the first two payments and are actively seeking outside financing to enable us to proceed with the joint venture arrangement. Presently, we have not received a termination notice from ForeverGreen Enterprises and are hopeful that we can enter into another modification of the agreement in the future



Page 14 of 22



Changes in the Number of Employees


If we obtain the necessary financing, we expect a substantial increase in full and part time employees in the foreseeable future to bolster our technical and marketing departments.  We hired John Benvengo as our President and COO. He has significant experience in landfill design, construction and operations. If financing is obtained, we will also bring in additional full time staff to support project development and operations.


We expect that plant construction projects will be completed by third parties who will be engaged pursuant to contractual agreements most of whom we are already in negotiation with.


Trends


We believe that the trend that is most likely to affect our business is the burgeoning need of local governments at all levels in most countries to manage sold waste, significant quantities of which are hazardous.  We believe this trend will generate demand for the technology we offer although no assurance can be given.


We also believe the trend of global warming will affect our business.  The need to reduce the output of greenhouse gases has caused a trend to find ways of generating cleaner electricity from cleaner renewable energy sources.  We believe the trend will generate a demand for our technology and services we offer although no assurance can be given.


FINANCIAL CONDITION


Ability to Meet Cash Requirements


We are considered to be in the development stage as defined in the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“FASB”) No. 7.  To date, we have received no income from our business operations.  We have incurred substantial losses since our inception.  As of September 30, 2008, we had an accumulated loss of $34.6 million during the development stage.  


Net cash consumed by operating activities during development stage total almost $10.6 million comprised of $20.7 million used in non cash transactions such as issuance of shares of stock for services, stock options exercised for free and value of options granted under our stock option plan. In addition to that, $1.8 million was charged for amortization and impairment charges and the remaining $1.0 million used to pay vendors, employee salaries and other operating expenses.


The company invested nearly $1.0 million in asset acquisition, mainly used to acquire the Add-Power technology.


Total cash provided by financing activities amounted $11.6 million from which $8.4 million came from sales of stock, $1.8 million was provided by exercise of options and warrants and $2.0 million came from loans from officers and other borrowing including $800,000 in convertible loans obtained on April 7, 2008. Specifically, we issued one $200,000, 12% convertible promissory note to each of 4 separate lenders.   At each lender’s option, the notes are convertible into shares of common stock in lieu of cash repayment if the respective note (principal and interest) is not paid off after six months (October 7, 2008). Each of the conversions are to be made  at a stipulated conversion formula. To date, we have not made any cash payments towards the principal or interest and the lenders have begun to exercise their conversion privileges.


Based on the above data, we believe that without additional equity or debt financing, we will not be able to satisfy our cash requirements for the next twelve months.


Two Year Cash Forecast


We have developed a two-year timeline and cash forecast of our cash needs to execute our business plan and are in the process of raising the funds required to fund our operations for the next 24 months. Our first priority will be the development of the Add-Power unit, which has been already tested and operating at a steel mill in Sweden. Our investment in the manufacturing of the first couple of units should provide us with the foundation to seek contracts from interested customers, some of which have already seen the unit operational and have expressed interest in the Add-Power unit.



Page 15 of 22



We will also pursue WTE projects, specifically those we already have started in Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Mexicali, Mexico. However, our approach will be that of pursuing the landfill permits and construction to be able to operate with revenues from waste collection, until the time we estimate that our first WTE facility will come online. At that Point, we will be in a better financial position to seek additional financing for the development and construction of WTE facilities, all of which will be equipped with the Add-Power unit for a more efficient and low cost energy production.


There can be no assurance, however, that we will be able to raise the amounts of financing required to operate our business until revenues commence, that we will be able to timely commence revenue generating operations of WTE facility (ies) or that if such facility (ies) commence operation, that we will generate sufficient revenue to be profitable.


We are in the process of attempting to raise capital to address approximately $30.3 million of financing needs for the next twenty-four months, outside of construction/project financing for specific waste to energy projects. Uses of the capital we are attempting to raise include:


1)

Working capital to cover overhead and execution costs during construction of waste to energy plants (approximately $18.4 million), additional details provided in the chart below.


2)

Working capital to cover the recently completed acquisition of Add-Power AB and the commercialization of Add-Power units (a patented low temperature turbine used for converting waste heat into electricity) of approximately $1.8 million.


3)

Additional development funding to apply Add-Power technology to low cost solar power generation, as well as to test the feasibility of integrating the Add-Power technology into small scale solar units for office parks, malls, and residential projects ($10.1 million).

In addition, we have a contractual obligation to pay during 2008 the remaining $962,057 for the purchase of Add-Power.  The Company’s management has been trying to focus on getting financing to be able to pay off the balance owed on the acquisition and be able to get the Add-Power unit to the commercialization stage. The Company has not been successful so far and believes it will not be able to meet this obligation without proceeds of external financing, of which we provide no assurance.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Quarter ended September 30, 2008 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2007


The company has accumulated net losses during its development stage of $34.6 million. During the first nine months of 2008, the company had total expenses of $10,720,010 compared to $4,770,558 during same period in 2007. Net operating losses were $11,556,971 in 2008 and $4,770,544 for the same period in year 2007.


The major increase during the comparable periods includes an increase in consulting fees from $1,010,129 in 2007 to $7,091,103 in 2008. The increase responds to more services paid mostly with shares of stock as the Company continues its quest for financing. Another area is the professional services increasing from $459,647 in 2007 to $749,297 in 2008, due to legal and other professional services paid mostly with shares of stock. This was offset by a net reduction in all other expense items of $421,171, bringing the total net increase from year 2007 to 2008 to the tune of $5,949,452.


The above analysis indicates the financial constraint in which the company has operated in the past 12 months from September 30, 2007 to September 30, 2008. Current market conditions have made it more difficult to find financing, including equity and therefore, we make no assurance that the financial condition may improve in the future.


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES


We have adopted various accounting policies that govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in the preparation of our financial statements, which requires us to make estimates, and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.


Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events and actions, we may undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results. Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by us, which have a material impact on our financial condition and results.  Management believes its critical accounting policies reflect its most significant estimates and assumptions used in the presentation of our financial statements.  Our critical accounting policies include debt management and accounting for stock-based compensation.  We do not have off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as "special purpose entities".

Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934



Page 17 of 22



and are not required to provide the information under this item.

Item 4 - Controls and Procedures


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


Disclosure Controls


We carried out an evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or the Exchange Act under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.


Disclosure controls and procedures are designed with the objective of ensuring that (i) information required to be disclosed in an issuer's reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and (ii) information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

The evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures included a review of our objectives and processes and effect on the information generated for use in this Report. This type of evaluation is done quarterly so that the conclusions concerning the effectiveness of these controls can be reported in our periodic reports filed with the SEC. Our assessment of the internal controls in place during the quarter ended September 30, 2008 id not revealed any internal control deficiencies that when individually and collectively evaluated, may have a material effect in the timeliness and accuracy of financial information and therefore, did not warrant additional disclosure.  We have implemented the required processes and compensatory controls to minimize the risk in these areas and continue to develop those necessary as the business grows, and financial reporting becomes more complex. We intend to maintain these controls as processes that may be appropriately modified as circumstances warrant.


Based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information, which is required to be included in our periodic reports filed with the SEC as of the filing of this Report.


Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting


Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the company’s disclosures controls and procedures pursuant to exchange act rule 13a – 15e our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our evaluation under the criteria set forth in Internal Control — Integrated Framework, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures over financial reporting was effective as of September 30, 2008.


However, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the benefits of controls relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. Because of the inherent limitations in a control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected.

Item 1A- Risk Factors

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.

Item 2 - Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds


During the period covered by this report, we sold 408 units (20,400,000 shares) to 32 investors for $1,535,097 in gross proceeds.  Each unit consisted of 500,000 shares of common stock and a warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock.  The purchase price of each unit was $50,000.  The warrants are exercisable at $0.25 per full share of common stock and expire twelve months from date of issuance.


The offering and sale qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 since the issuance did not involve a public offering.  The offering was not a public offering as defined in Section 4(2) because the offer and sale was made to an insubstantial number of persons and because of the manner of the offering. This offering was done with no general solicitation or advertising by the Registrant. Each investor made representations regarding his or her financial sophistication and had an opportunity to ask questions of our management. In addition, these investors had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to, and received, share certificates bearing a legend stating that such shares are restricted. This restriction ensures that these shares will not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a public offering. Based on an analysis of the above factors, the Registrant has met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 for this transaction.

Item 5 - Other Information


During the third quarter review, the Company’s officers, in consultation with the Company’s independent accountants, Robert G. Jeffrey, Certified Public Accountants, concluded that the Company’s unaudited financial statements included its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 should no longer be relied upon. This conclusion was based upon the determination that it is necessary to amend the aforementioned report to correct certain mathematical, numerical and other errors contained in the Part I, Item 1 (financial statements) of the report as well as the corresponding information contained in Part I, Item 2 (Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations) of the report.


The cumulative impact of the corrections is expected to be:

·

A material misstatement (understatement) of the net loss for the three and six months ending June 30, 2008 contained in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations;

·

Offsetting corrections to various sections of the Cash Flow Statement- specifically the Operating and Financial activities;

·

Corresponding material misstatements in the Company’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section (Part I, Item 2) of the of the aforementioned  Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2008; and

·

Certain modifications to footnotes, including a restatement footnote.

Although we intend to file an amended quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 as soon as practicable, because we have not yet concluded our analysis of these issues, the anticipated impact on our financial statements described above may be  subject to change.


We have completed our assessment of how the changes being made reflect on the adequacy of our internal controls over financial reporting and our disclosure controls in general and have concluded that the factors that resulted in necessitating the amendment were caused by a lack of consistent authoritative guidance and not a failure to detect and assess the issues and collect relevant data. Specifically, the errors were a result of clerical errors in preparing the financial statements and were not detected by the certifying officers.  In addition, review by certifying officers failed to detect the errors.


Certain matters discussed in this Item 5 may constitute "forward-looking statements".  Actual results and the timing of certain events may differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our ability to control or predict, including, but not limited to (i) our final determination of the magnitude of the accounting adjustments described in this report, (ii) the discovery of other errors in our financial statements, which could result in further adjustments, (iii) the completion of the restatement process and, (iv) other risks and uncertainties outlined in our periodic reports filed with the SEC.  These statements are made as of the date of this report, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
