DES PLAINES, Ill. -- HyRadix Inc., the leading provider of on-site hydrogen generation systems and supply solutions, announced today that it has been awarded the contract to supply a hydrogen fuel generation system to SunLine Transit Agency based in Thousand Palms, Calif. SunLine is the first public transit agency to launch a hydrogen generation facility and is focused on continuing advancements toward alternate fueled transportation.

The purchase of HyRadix's Adeo(TM) on-site hydrogen fuel generator will enable SunLine to meet its plans of increasing the size of its hydrogen bus fleet over the next few years. The new hydrogen generation system will be delivered and fully operational in July 2006.

"The commercial demand for hydrogen as a fuel will continue to rise due to its many benefits, and SunLine is proud to be at the forefront of using alternative fuels which provide economic and environmental benefits throughout this region," said Mikel Oglesby, SunLine General Manager.
