VIASPACE Inc. Announces Resignation of Carl Kukkonen as CTO and from the Board of Directors

VIASPACE Inc. (VIASPACE) is a renewable energy company. The Company's renewable energy is based on biomass in particular its license to an energy crop, Giant King Grass (GKG), which the Company is able to commercialize across the world, except for the People's Republic of China (China) and the Republic of China (Taiwan). It focuses on GKG, a natural hybrid, non-genetically modified perennial grass which the Company is growing as an energy crop that can be used to generate low carbon and renewable electricity by direct burning in a biomass power plant, and can be made into pellets that can replace some of the coal in existing power plants. GKG may also be used to produce bio methane through anaerobic digestion and as a feedstock for non-food liquid biofuels, such as bio ethanol and bio butanol. It can also be used as a feedstock for biochemicals and bio plastics. GKG can also be used as a feedstock to make cellulosic biofuels, such as bio ethanol, bio butane and green gasoline.
