POMPANO BEACH, Fla.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--[ Cyclone Power Technologies ] (Pink Sheets: CYPW) has received approval from PECO, the electric utility in southeastern Pennsylvania, to complete installation of Cyclonea™s initial waste heat power generator at the Hatboro, PA facility of its customer, [ Bent Glass Design ].

"Approval from PECO is significant not only because it allows us to complete our first waste heat recovery project, but also because it sets a precedent for how other utilities around the country may view small-scale industrial waste heat projects"

Cyclonea™s waste heat power generator a" comprised of its scalable Waste Heat Engine (the WHE-25), proprietary heat exchangers and electric generating equipment a" required approval from PECO to connect to the electric grid. When operating, Cyclonea™s waste energy recovery system will convert over 500,000 BTUs of exhaust heat from Bent Glassa™ furnaces into power that can off-set peak electricity usage and corresponding demand charges at the facility.

aApproval from PECO is significant not only because it allows us to complete our first waste heat recovery project, but also because it sets a precedent for how other utilities around the country may view small-scale industrial waste heat projects,a stated Christopher Nelson, Managing Director of Cyclonea™s WHE division. aGrid tying these scalable systems is a new concept for the utilities, who we believe must view such projects as great opportunities to meet renewable portfolio standards and expand their support of clean, alternative power supplies, similar to wind and solar.a

PECO will still need to review and test certain safety disconnect procedures in the final system and install a new power meter at Bent Glass prior to going live, which is expected to occur later this month, subject to the scheduling of the utility.
