approximately $2,769,000 of indebtedness in the aggregate owed by OmniMetrix to the Sellers and an affiliate (including salaries,
rent, royalties and notes payable), with the balance, net of transaction expenses, paid to the Sellers pro rata according to their
respective percentage ownership of the Interests. A portion of the purchase price was placed in escrow to secure the Sellers&rsquo;

LLC</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Montchanin, DE (February 15, 2012) - Acorn
Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACFN), an energy technology holding company, today announced the signing and closing of an agreement to purchase
OmniMetrix, LLC, a leading developer and producer of remote monitoring equipment and systems for emergency power generators and
underground pipelines. The purchase price is $8.5 million, subject to adjustment as provided in the purchase agreement. Pritchard
Capital Partners served as an advisor to Acorn Energy in this transaction.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">OmniMetrix is headquartered in Georgia, and
was founded in 1998 by Harold Jarrett, who has thirty-five years experience in product and market development. The company is the
leading brand and innovator of remote monitoring services for on-site power generators. New management and Mr. Jarrett, all of
whom remain with OmniMetrix following the closing, are accelerating the company&rsquo;s current growth by focusing on and gaining
rapid penetration in the emergency generator market, as well as home back-up generators. Many of these generators serve critical
requirements such as hospitals, nursing homes and cell telephone towers. Approximately 10% of installed emergency generators fail
to start when needed not due to manufactured quality but field issues like batteries, spark plugs, heater blocks and fuel issues.
Constantly monitoring the equipment remotely can ensure the reliability of the back-up systems. While the home generator market
is relatively new, approximately 2% of U.S. residences have installed back-up generators and the demand is growing rapidly due
to severe storms and falling electric grid reliability.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">OmniMetrix has also developed and markets a
remote cathodic protection (CP) monitoring system which helps prevent losses associated with pipeline corrosion. Twenty-four hours
a day, the system delivers current and historic test-point information directly to a desktop, laptop or phone. OmniMetrix&rsquo;s
CP systems have longer battery life and greater reliability, both features which provide solid, competitive advantages. The energy
industry spends $7 to $10 billion annually repairing and replacing corroded steel pipelines. Because of this increasing problem,
federal and state regulators are focusing greater attention on the issue. In addition, the U.S. shale gas boom requires a large
increase in pipeline capacity which is expanding the opportunity for OmniMetrix.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">John Moore, CEO of Acorn Energy stated, &ldquo;OmniMetrix
is a terrific addition to our growing product lines of remote monitoring systems for the huge and aging energy infrastructure.
Digital energy is rapidly making the production and distribution of energy safer and more reliable. Acorn Energy is acquiring niche
technologies which solve critical energy infrastructure problems and have tremendous market potential.&rdquo;</P>
