In connection with this alliance, Cyclone has received a purchase order from APS for an undisclosed quantity of a man-portable 80W power units with a design target weight of less than 3 lbs. Initial test units are expected to be delivered later this year, and will be capable of running on a variety of fuels or fuel combinations with anticipated NOX emissions levels under 1%.

"The Cyclone Engine offers a number of breakthroughs as a clean burning engine using multi-fuels," stated David Verden, President of MEO. "Applications for this engine cover across-the-board defense industry requirements, however, we see early demand in the fields of man-portable power supplies."

"We believe that Cyclone's compact, lightweight and multi-fuel engine technology can be of great use for troops in the field, especially in this day and age when the war on terrorism requires our allied soldiers to be quick, agile and resourceful," noted Dr. Phil Myers, President of APS.

Added Harry Schoell, CEO of Cyclone, "We are pleased to be working with MEO and APS in connection with military applications in the UK. Our technology fits perfectly with the requirements of defense and homeland security. We see many other applications developing in the foreseeable future."

CORPORATE PROFILE

Cyclone holds the U.S. patent, international patent applications, and exclusive commercial rights to the Cyclone Engine, an environmentally friendly and highly efficient external combustion, heat-regenerative engine. Developed by the company's President and CEO, Harry Schoell, the Cyclone Engine regenerates (or recycles) its heat, which allows it to run cleaner, cooler and more efficiently than traditional internal combustion engines. The Cyclone Engine is capable of running on any liquid or gaseous fuel, including ethanol, bio-diesel and propane, and is lubricated with de-ionized water instead of motor oil. By eliminating many subsystems like oil pumps, radiators, catalytic converters and fuel injectors, Cyclone Engines are expected to cost less to manufacture, operate and maintain; however Cyclone Engines are highly scalable and sufficiently powerful for applications ranging from lawn equipment and small home generators to cars, trucks, buses ships and locomotives. The Broward County Environmental Protection Department recently named Cyclone Power Technologies as the "Environmental Business of the Year," and Popular Science magazine recently named the Cyclone Engine "2008 Invention of the Year."
