ZPower President/CEO Selected for ''Top Ten Technology'' Panel at CES 2008

CAMARILLO, Calif.--(Business Wire)--Are you curious to know what CES predicts as next year's hot
technologies? CES 2008 will include a session called "The Top 10
Technologies You've Never Heard Of" in which they'll unveil their top
picks for what consumers will soon flock to buy and what the big
market drivers will be next year. Among the panelists for this CES
session is Dr. Ross Dueber, President and CEO of ZPower, Inc., a
provider of silver-zinc, rechargeable battery technology for portable
electronics.

"ZPower is honored to participate at CES 2008," said ZPower
President and CEO Dr. Ross Dueber. "We believe our battery technology
made the CES list of Top 10 Technologies because battery life for
today's mobile devices-- like notebook computers and cell phones-- is
quickly becoming a critical factor. Since we first unveiled our
technology at the Intel Developers Forum in 2006, our batteries now
offer significantly more power and improved performance. We've made
these enhancements while focusing on consumer safety and manufacturing
a product that is environmentally responsible."

ZPower batteries offer up to 40% more energy density than
traditional lithium-ion batteries. Additionally, ZPower(TM) batteries
offer an inherently safe technology which features a water-based
chemistry that is not flammable. The battery contains no lithium or
flammable liquids and is therefore free from the problems of thermal
runaway and fire.

ZPower(TM) batteries also offer consumers an environmentally
friendly alternative. The primary elements used to produce the
batteries can be recycled and re-used. The raw materials recovered in
the recycling process of silver-zinc batteries are the same quality as
those that went into the creation of the battery. Environmental impact
is lessened since the need to mine for new materials is minimized. The
company plans to offer incentives so consumers can save money by
recycling the batteries.

ZPower was selected in September by AlwaysOn as one of the
"GoingGreen 100 Top Private Companies" in the Energy Storage category
for 2007. Dr. Dueber was a featured speaker in the Extended Battery
Life (EBL) panel at the Fall 2007 Intel Developer Forum. ZPower won
Intel's "Technology Innovation Accelerated" (TIA) Award in the
Mobility category at IDF 2006. Dr. Dueber has also spoken at the
President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST)
about silver-zinc rechargeable battery technology and at the 24th
International Battery Seminar & Exhibit.

ZPower is currently working with leading manufacturers of notebook
computers, cell phones, and smart phones to incorporate silver-zinc
technology in next generation products. The company will begin high
volume production of ZPower(TM) batteries in mid 2008.

The CES 2008 session "Top 10 Technologies You've Never Head of,"
will be held on January 7th at noon at the Las Vegas Convention
Center's North Hall, room N255.

ZPower will also be on hand at the ShowStoppers@CES event on
January 7th from 6-10pm at the Wynn Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.
