BOWMANVILLE, ON, June 13 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Hydrogen Hybrid Technologies Inc. (otcbb: HYHY) and Canadian Hydrogen Energy are pleased to announce that preparations are under way to commence phase one of a Fleet Placement Program in Lithuania in association with a group of transportation professionals that are associated with the largest fleets in Eastern Europe.

At present, unprecedented high diesel fuel and petrol prices are forecasted in Lithuania. Specialists say that the prices can be expected to continue to rise, putting continued pressure on the Eastern European trucking industry.

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. HFI units are being used by 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, Mexico, Korea and the United Kingdom. Geographical distribution has been recently expanded internationally. 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.
