Questor Technology Inc. Announces Acquisition of ClearPower Systems, Inc.

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Feb. 5, 2014) -

THIS DOCUMENT IS NOT INTENDED FOR DISSEMINATION OR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES.

Questor Technology Inc. ("Questor" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:QST) is pleased to announce that it has acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of ClearPower Systems, Inc. ("ClearPower"), a company incorporated in Delaware in the United States of America (U.S.) for $900,000 US. This acquisition was funded from Questor's cash reserves. ClearPower has developed an efficient 50 kW organic Rankine cycle ("ORC") system that converts waste heat to power. This acquisition will assist in diversifying Questor's product solutions and open up global opportunities in other industries.

ClearPower's ORC technology can function independently with all sources of waste heat and can be used synergistically with waste heat streams from Questor's incinerators. The heat generated from the 99.99% efficient combustion of waste gases in Questor's incinerators will drive the ClearPower 50 kW ORC's. "This acquisition will enable us to offer a solution to our clients that not only addresses their emission issues but can provide an economic benefit by generating power for use at site or to the grid in a cost effective way while significantly reducing the site carbon footprint", said Audrey Mascarenhas, Questor's President and Chief Executive officer. "Many jurisdictions offer a premium price for power generated from waste heat." These ORC'S are an ideal size to serve the market that Questor has provided combustion solutions to for the past 20 years.

We are also excited at the prospect of connecting this power generation solution directly to other waste heat sources, such as compressors and engines. Outside of the energy sector, the landfill market, agriculture, sewage and water treatment all produce waste gases requiring combustion which extracting heat for power is expected to be a competitive advantage. There are numerous sources of waste heat that will prove opportune for this technology, which is expected to present significant growth prospects for Questor.

This acquisition has also created a presence for Questor in the U.S. We are pleased to welcome Mr. Robert (Bob) B. Miller and Mr. Leigh L. Estus from ClearPower to the Questor team. Bob Miller is a seasoned entrepreneur with over 35 years of experience in providing cogeneration and combined heat to power packages. He is a pioneer in this field and recognized worldwide for his expertise in waste heat to power distributed generation. Bob was CEO and co-founder of Turbogenix Inc., which merged with Calnetix Inc. in 2008 and he assumed the role of Senior Executive Vice President. General Electric acquired a major portion of Calnetix in 2011. Prior to this Bob was Senior Executive Vice President at Hess Microgen, a subsidiary of Amerada Hess. Leigh is a senior executive with extensive experience in product development, design, manufacturing and marketing. He served as Executive Vice President for Strategic Programs and Planning at Calnetix and Senior Vice President of Operations at Capstone Turbine Corp.

This acquisition aligns with Questor's strategy of growth in global diverse markets.
