NEWS --

POMPANO BEACH, Fla., Jan 06, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Cyclone Power Technologies
Inc. (Pink Sheets: CYPW) has released new video demonstrating the economic and
environment benefits of utiliz ing its heat-regenerative, external combustion
engines to power waste energy recovery applications.

Cyclone's Waste Heat Engine (WHE) is designed to power a grid-tied or
stand-alone waste energy recovery system capable of generating between 1kW and
1MW of electricity. The patented piston-based engine captures 600F to 2000F of
excess wasted heat from sources such as engine exhaust, commercial ovens,
industrial furnaces and landfill flares. The Company is currently completing
extensive testing of the WHE and expects to place smaller units into production
later this year.

"We believe that our WHE systems can fill an enormous gap in the waste energy
recovery industry -- namely small and medium sized businesses with low to medium
quality excess wasted heat," stated Cyclone's CEO, Harry Schoell. "We believe
that our WHE units are the only truly viable options for facilities as small as
restaurants, to medium-sized industrial furnaces, foundries and gas flares."
According to industry studies, such facilities comprise 20% or more of the
nation's total waste heat resources.

The Company's WHE systems produce electricity from heat (thermal energy) that is
otherwise lost into the atmosphere through tail pipes, smoke stacks, exhaust
flues and flares. According to the US Clean Heat and Power Association, combined
heat and power (CHP) and waste heat recovery processes like these currently:

-- Save business owners over $5 billion/year in energy costs;

-- Reduce emissions of NOx by 400,000 tons/year and SO2 by 900,000 tons/year;
and

-- Prevent the release of 35 million tons of CO2 equivalent into the atmosphere.

Cyclone believes that the installation of its WHE systems can also drive
investment and create jobs. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, if the
U.S. were to increase its use of CHP and waste heat recovery systems to generate
20% of its el ectricity by 2030, it would spur $234 billion in private investment
and create 1 million jobs.
