Synergy Offers Efficient Power Source to Fuel Cell Industry

   Company's 2.5 liter SynGen Reactor Demonstrates Advantages for Home and
                              Automotive Markets

    CALGARY, Alberta, May 23 Synergy Technologies Corp.
(OTC Bulletin Board: OILS) today announced that a 2.5 liter SynGen reactor
system, designed by the company and installed at its Calgary facility, had
successfully reformed feeds of natural gas into the hydrogen-rich fuel
required for fuel cells.

    The company said the 2.5-liter system, which has been developed to
demonstrate and optimize reformer design for the home and automotive fuel cell
markets, will also be used to optimize the insitu water shift reaction to
increase hydrogen production.

    The insitu water shift process is used to maximize hydrogen production for
PEM and alkaline fuel cells, that cannot consume carbon monoxide as fuel as is
the case with Solid oxide (SOFC) and Molten carbonate (MCFC) fuel cells.  The
process causes injected water recovered from the fuel cell to react with
carbon monoxide to produce carbon dioxide and additional hydrogen.

    Test work performed in Orleans, France has shown that SynGen can achieve a
high insitu conversion of carbon monoxide.  According to the company, SynGen
reformers exhibit a high degree of scalability, and energy efficiency.

    "We have analyzed many of the various types of fuel cells being developed
in the marketplace, as well as their fuel requirements," said Thomas E.
Cooley, Synergy's CEO and Chief Technology Officer, "and we believe the
2.5 liter SynGen reactor system offers significant size and cost benefits in
many stationary fuel cell applications. Also, based on the testing results to
date, we are confident that SynGen will prove to be an excellent fit for
on-board fuel cell systems based on liquid fossil fuels."

    The proprietary and patented SynGen process converts natural gas and other
fossil fuels into synthesis gas, via the use of a cold plasma electrical
discharge. This synthesis gas, composed of hydrogen and carbon monoxide, will
be utilized as feedstock in varied applications, including gas-to-liquids
(GTL) and other petrochemical processes, hydrogen production facilities, and
fuel cells.
