Sale to School District # 5 will be funded by B.C. Government as precursor to
sales on entire provincial fleet of buses

PICKERING, ON, June 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Hydrogen Hybrid
Technologies Inc. (OTCBB: HYHY) President Ira Lyons is pleased to announce the
sale of the first units of the newest line of emissions control and fuel
saving devices in North America. The units will be installed on school buses
operated by School District # 5 in the Province of British Columbia, Canada.
The sale marks the first government sale in western Canada and the purchase of
the units will be funded by the provincial government.
    "The use of the new model of Hydrogen Fuel Injection (HFI) products on
school busses marks a milestone and opens up a huge new market for HHT" said
Mr. Lyons. "All across North America, governments have recognized the serious
hazard posed by diesel fumes to school children riding buses for up to four
hours each day. In the California, alone, the state is spending $25 Million
U.S., annually, to install exhaust abatement technologies on school buses. The
satisfactory results on the first two school buses in B.C. are expected to
lead to the adoption of HFI on every school bus in B.C. and will, almost
certainly, have equal success in other provinces and states", added Lyons, "in
part because HFI is the only emissions control technology that also reduces
fuel use, meaning it is the only product of its kind that pays for itself".
    HFI technology is installed as an add-on to diesel and gasoline engines
where it significantly reduces a wide variety of emissions (CO, PM, HC, CO2
and NOx) while simultaneously reducing fuel consumption by a guaranteed
minimum of 10%. HFI units are being used by over 150 fleets of long-haul
transport trucks, ambulances, municipal buses and other heavy equipment,
earning HFI the dominant position as the world's most widely-used on-board
electrolysers. The technology is based on electrolysis and the units split
water, on-board the ambulance, then vent the hydrogen and oxygen directly into
the air intake of the engine. Adding hydrogen significantly improves the
efficiency of combustion, in the engine, with significant financial and
environmental benefits.
    HFI is distributed through the world's largest retail distribution network
for any hydrogen product, with over 140 Certified Installation Centres all
across Canada, the United States and Mexico. Recently, geographical
distribution has been expanded and units are installed in Europe, South
America and the UK. The product is the first emission control technology to
receive "Environmental Technology Verification" (ETV) by the Canadian
government and the first hydrogen technology to receive ETV recognition
anywhere in the world.
