"Power Air intends to take our patented fuel cell technology out of the Lab and develop products competitive with generators and batteries," states Power Air CEO, Steve Williams. "The addition of Andrew Turnbull is an important step in our commercialization efforts."

Andrew Turnbull joins Power Air from Xantrex Power, a public power electronics company listed on Toronto, where he was Program Manager responsible for leading multi-functional teams from product development to product launch. Previous to Xantrex, Mr. Turnbull worked for seven years at Ballard Power Systems as Program Manager for Power Generation products. Mr. Turnbull headed a team that developed fuel cell products, including back-up power products, targeting the power generation industry. He has 18 years of engineering and product development experience in various industries including power electronics, fuel cell, oil and gas, and power generation. Mr. Turnbull holds a Bachelor of Applied Science in Electrical Engineering from Queen's University.

"I see tremendous possibilities for products based on Power Air's zinc air fuel cell technologies that could reach broad markets and finally deliver on the promise of fuel cells," said Mr. Turnbull.

Adds Power Air Vice President, Sales and Marketing, Don Ceci, formerly of Ballard Power Systems, "Mr. Turnbull has the fuel cell industry experience required to develop and implement our Program Plan. He has led cross- functional teams integrating R&D, engineering, manufacturing, quality, supply chain, customer engineering, and service. Andrew is a critical addition to our commercialization team."
