HyPower Announces Hydrogen Research Partnership with Middle Tennessee State University
Tuesday April 3, 8:30 am ET


WILMINGTON, Del.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--HyPower Fuel Inc. (PINKSHEETS: HYPF - News) is pleased to announce that it has negotiated a research alliance with Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU). Through this alliance, HyPower Fuel and MTSU will jointly fund Dr. Cliff Ricketts' research into plug-in flex fuel vehicles using hydrogen.


"This research partnership will ultimately result in a number of high-profile demonstrations of a vehicle powered by hydrogen within the next eight months," said Dr. Ricketts. "At the conclusion of this first partnership period, our team will also endeavor to set a new land speed record by a hydrogen powered vehicle at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah," added Ricketts.

"We are extremely proud of being associated with MTSU and Dr. Ricketts'. We plan in the next few months to have our H2 Reactor team visit MTSU to apply our hydrogen technology on Dr. Ricketts' alternative fuel vehicle systems," said Mr. Douglas Bender, President of HyPower Fuel Inc. "We expect that the synergy of this research partnership will definitely elevate awareness and use of hydrogen technology in a variety of transportation applications."

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 with its joint venture partner, HyPower believes that the H2 Reactor's electrolysis process is technologically the most efficient to date with an unprecedented ratio of 1 liter of hydrogen production to an electrical input of 1 watt hour. This is approximately 2 to 2.5 times more efficient than the current state of the competing technology.
