Internal Hydro International, Inc. Announces Hydro Unit Test Completion Will Mean Italian Manufacturing and University Validation


TAMPA, Fla., Nov. 30, 2006 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Internal Hydro International, Inc., (OTCBB:IHDR) (www.internalhydro.com) announced today the final tests of the Energy Commander V low impact hydro unit concluded on Tuesday, November 28th. The unit, which utilizes pistons instead of larger intake turbine based hydro units, was tested by LA Engineering of Theodore, Alabama, for flow pressures at the intake and outlet, at varying levels of water pressure and mechanical braking applied to the unit. These were the last tests to be concluded before the unit is shipped for the production phase to Italy with the Company's partner Cm2. The Company will submit the test results for validation of the technology by a partnered university for later release. The unit itself will be shipped within the next fourteen days to Cm2 for their use in the production phase of the next ten units. With the completion of the tests, IHDR will be able to complete and satisfy sales and placement enquiries, with a product sheet for units utilizing the innovative slice concept, which is an expandable set of 12 cylinder slices depending upon the flow available. A four (4) slice unit was designed to supply 30 kilowatts of electricity, however, where the flow pressures, or head, are greater, based upon the testing verification, less slices will be required to supply the same amount of energy. Previous testing showed that the unit's power potential was above calculated parameters as designed, and is projected to be optimized even further in production by Cm2.

The EC V unit was run over a series of specialized tests in varying flow pressures for power, or torque, and then for pressure, which is related to head availability and outflow pressure. The single 12 cylinder slice unit produced a constant ability to achieve over the designed 7.0 kilowatts per slice at the designed p.s.i., while still maintaining an outlet pressure which shows it will be able to be utilized for energy then continue the water flow for other uses at significant remaining pressures.

Unlike traditional hydro, the Energy Commander is ecologically sound, without the usual problems of oxidation and large intakes associated with turbines. As built and displayed the unit has outperformed initial expectations for the production of both electrical and mechanical power for other uses.

About Internal Hydro:

Internal Hydro International, Inc. is an alternative energy company that developed a clean energy power system, the Energy Commander Systems, that utilizes a patented technology, using waste water, fluid or gas flow from any source where flow pressure is present, and yet wasted, to create electricity. Internal Hydro has licensed a tire remediation to fuel and ethanol waste (DDG) to biofuels technology for use on ethanol plants domestically. IHDR is international in scope, with European production and marketing for its core technologies, and is preparing to enter the market with its core Energy Commander systems. Internal Hydro is well positioned to gain major market share and dominate the niche of hydro and renewable energy in the fragmented alternative energy marketplace.
