PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 19, 2002

Solpower Corporation (OTC BB: SLPW) - an environmental solutions company and manufacturer of Soltron(TM), the first enzyme based emissions control technology for liquid fossil fuels, has entered into an exclusive agreement with Rear Admiral Kevin Delaney (Ret.) and his Jacksonville, Florida based company, Futura Sales Company to represent Solpower products, including Soltron(TM) to all branches of the U.S. military.

Rear Admiral Delaney retired in 1998 as the most decorated member of the U.S. Navy on active duty, having received 98 awards and decorations during his 34 years of service including flying nearly 700 combat missions in Southeast Asia. Since his retirement, Admiral Delaney has been a senior executive in the automotive and health care sectors and was recently named by the Jacksonville Business Journal as one of Jacksonville's ten most influential business leaders of the decade.

Futura Sales Company was formed to bring emerging technologies to the attention of the U.S. military, and to expedite the implementation of these technologies throughout the military infrastructure. The U.S. military has implemented new regulations concerning both fuel economy and emissions controls, and Soltron(TM) offers tremendous potential to address both of these issues.

Admiral Delaney commented, "The growing use of Soltron(TM) in small military applications such as the Coast Guard and some remote Naval and Army bases caught our attention. We feel the Solpower product line will be of great benefit to the U.S. military. We have started Soltron(TM) testing at a military installation in Florida and anticipate wide exposure over the next few months."

Jim Hirst, CEO of Solpower commented, "We are very pleased to have Admiral Delaney join Solpower's team. His influence, skills and experience in dealing with the U.S. military are of tremendous value to our growing organization. The U.S. military is the largest single fuel burning entity in the country, and we have just walked through their doors accompanied by one of their best."
