Next Green Wave Holdings Inc. (CSE: NGW) (OTCQB: NXGWF) (“Next Green Wave“, “NGW” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce that Pacific Gas & Electric (“PG&E”) has successfully completed the electrical installation and connection to the transformer providing power to our 35,000ft.2 premium indoor facility and the entire cannabis zoned development property it is situated on.

Seven lots extending over 15 acres 100% owned by Next Green Wave, will have access to electrical services immediately. Expansion of our future cultivation footprint will allow for accelerated development, as well as enhancing our property value by bringing utilities to all parcels.

The Company will now commence final inspection during the second week of April to test the integrity of the electrical system of the building. All other testing from placement of security cameras, ventilation, bio-security, etc., have already undergone initial testing and have been approved. Upon receiving the final approval from the City, NGW will be in position to begin operations under a state cultivation license, joining the ranks of companies like Sunniva (CSE: SNN) CannaRoyalty (CSE: OH) and iAnthus (SCE: IAN

“We are now in the very final stage of being approved to begin cannabis production,” stated Leigh Hughes, CEO of Next Green Wave. “The construction of our facility has been underway for nearly one year and it is extremely rewarding to see this facility operational and ready to bring premium cannabis products into the California market in 2019. We would like to thank city officials for their efforts in aiding Next Green Wave to become an official producer”.

On behalf of the Board,

Leigh Hughes

CEO and Executive Chairman, Next Green Wave Holdings Inc.
