"With HyPower's financial and technical assistance we have been able to move forward quickly with our hybrid, flex-fuel vehicle project. With the advent of this project I hope to prove later this year that I can drive across Tennessee using only the sun and water as my fuels," said Dr. Clifford Ricketts, Professor at MTSU. "I am currently investigating the possibility of incorporating HyPower's H2 Reactor on-board the hybrid vehicle to serve as an additional on-demand fuel source to increase the vehicle's range," added Ricketts.

"We are extremely excited about our involvement with Dr. Ricketts in conjunction with his groundbreaking projects" said Mr. Douglas Bender, President of HyPower. "I am confident Dr. Ricketts high profile will be further elevated by his cross Tennessee initiative and by other joint projects that we are planning with him in the future. We believe that Dr. Ricketts inclusion of our company in these and other important alternative fuel projects further confirm that we are a leader in hydrogen technology research and development."

About Dr. S. Clifton Ricketts
Dr. S. Clifton Ricketts has been a Professor at Middle Tennessee State University for over 30 years and has a B.S. and M.S. from the University of Tennessee and a Ph.D. from The Ohio State University. He has been involved with alternative fuel research since 1978 and his vast experience with alternative fuels include running engines off ethanol from corn, hydrogen from water and methane from cow manure. His work has been exhibited at the 1982 World's Fair and the Atomic Energy Museum in Oak Ridge. There is coverage of his work at the Smithsonian Institute and he is a 15 year holder of the Land Speed Record for a hydrogen vehicle at the Bonneville Salt Flats.

About the H2 Reactor (H2R)
The H2 Reactor is an electrolyzer that uses a unique process of electrolysis to create hydrogen and oxygen gases from water. After extensive technical research and development work, HyPower believes that the H2 Reactor's electrolysis process is technologically the most efficient to date in terms of oxy-hydrogen production to an electrical input. The H2 Reactor has the potential of being approximately 2 times more efficient than the current state of the competing technology. The H2 Reactor can be used in any manufacturing, business or household application involving heat or combustion. HyPower also hopes to adapt this technology for transportation purposes by enabling vehicles to burn oxyhydrogen produced on-board and on-demand either in a hybrid or a sole source fuel scenario.
