Item 8.01 Other Events.

     On May 17, 2006, Metretek Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), received a letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) notifying the Company that the SEC is conducting an informal, non-public inquiry regarding the Company. The inquiry requests the voluntary provision of a chronology of recent events relating to announcements made by the Company in February and March 2006 of orders received by the Company’s PowerSecure, Inc. subsidiary, which includes events that were the subject of the previously disclosed review by the National Association of Securities Dealers. The SEC has advised the Company that the inquiry should not be construed as an indication by the SEC that any violation of law has occurred, and should not be considered a reflection upon any person or entity. The Company intends to fully cooperate with the SEC’s inquiry.
