London, September, 28, 2009
Gouda, the Netherlands - Imtech N.V. (technical services provider  in
Europe) has received orders of nearly 25 million euro for 'green' and
high tech data centres for financial institutions in the Netherlands.

René van der Bruggen, CEO of Imtech: 'Green data centers are a strong
growth market  for  Imtech in  Europe.  Despite the  economic  crisis
financial institutions are investing more  and more in the  expansion
of their data capacity for  financial transactions. Recently we  have
completed several 'green'  data centres  in Germany.  Because of  our
knowledge and references in all  the required competences, Imtech  is
able to provide 'green' total technical solutions.'

Continuity and security of financial transactions
More strict requirements imposed  by De Nederlandsche Bank  (National
Dutch Bank)  to  enhance the  continuity  and security  of  financial
transactions in  the  Netherlands have  necessitated  investments  to
expand capacity and improve the security in data centres of financial
institutions. Another reason why the investments are required is  the
increasing intensity of  digital payments.  Extra capacity  minimises
the risk of unexpected failures and  thus makes it possible to  offer
customers optimum service.

'Green' technology
Imtech is responsible for  the detail engineering and  implementation
of all  'green' technical  solutions,  including the  complete  power
facilities (central energy supplies,  power systems, medium  voltage,
switching gear  and distribution  equipment), the  energy  management
system and innovative cooling. This also includes all the  integrated
electrical and mechanical  solutions. Imtech will  also take care  of
the technical equipping of the computer rooms that house thousands of
connected and mutually integrated computer servers. The objective  is
that  all  technical  solutions   are  as  energy-efficient  and   as
sustainable as possible in order  to meet the European guidelines  in
this field amply.  These solutions  result in  relatively low  energy
costs and extremely limited CO2 emissions.

Total safety and security solutions
Imtech will  also provide  the complete  safety and  security,  among
which  all  the  no-break  power  supplies.  These  ensure  that  all
processes continue uninterrupted at all  times if there is an  outage
of the  main  supply  of  the  electricity  company  for  any  reason
whatsoever. Underground fuel storages will also be installed to which
generators will be connected capable  of delivering on a  stand-alone
basis the  energy supply.  All technical  facilities related  to  the
primary process will  be designed redundantly,  thus providing  extra
guarantees for secure and uninterrupted operations. Imtech will  also
provide  high  tech  security  in  the  form  of  advanced   building
management systems, high tech camera systems and control rooms,  fire
detection and security, evacuation systems and lightning conductors.

The data centres will be delivered mid-2010.
