SHOW - The Renewable Hydrogen Roadshow - Debuts as a 'Festival Within A Festival' at Santa Rosa, CA's Health & Harmony Festival, June 12-13

Conceived by Stuart Energy, SHOW Launches a Major Renewable Hydrogen Awareness Campaign in an Accessible, 'Edu-tainment' Format

LOS ANGELES, June 2 -- SHOW -- The Renewable Hydrogen Roadshow -- was conceived by hydrogen energy pioneers Stuart Energy as a dynamic means to promote sustainable living practices and bring environmental awareness to the general public within the context of a cultural and world/conscious music experience. Incorporating a live concert stage and interactive multi-media exhibitions inside a spectacular 60'-diameter Eco-Dome, SHOW focuses on groundbreaking renewable hydrogen products and initiatives, and the growing world hydrogen infrastructure. Informing as it entertains, SHOW is both inspirational, with an eye for major future developments, and practical, presenting lifestyle models fostering sustainability that can be implemented right now.

This visionary "Festival Within A Festival" premieres with a 2004 California-launched tour, kicking off at Santa Rosa, CA's Health & Harmony Festival at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds on June 12 and 13. The Stuart Energy-sponsored Eco-Dome will be central to Health & Harmony's multi-faceted Eco-Village, one of the expansive Festival's major attractions.

Another SHOW component is the Renewable Stuart Energy Station (SES). The SES system is a water electrolysis-based hydrogen station that uses solar electricity to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen. Solar Integrated Technologies (SIT) will be displaying a 40' x 60' solar canopy that will power many of the performances taking place on the Eco-Village stage. The solar canopy will also power the SES system highlighting the ways in which solar-powered hydrogen energy systems and vehicles will become part of more and more homes and businesses over the coming years.

Featured musical artists on the Eco-Village stage include singer-songwriter Tracy Lyons, whose second album, I Will, comes out later this year. A northern Californian with Celtic roots, Lyons' emotionally powerful conscious rock won great acclaim in 2001 with her debut album Surrender; her set times are 1:50PM-2:50PM on Saturday, June 12, and 12:20PM-1:15PM on Sunday the 13th. Additionally, on Sunday, Tracy will perform "Save Me," her new song related to health and the environment, on the Health & Harmony Festival's main stage at 3:55PM, immediately prior to classic rock headliner Dave Mason's set.

Stuart Energy's President & CEO Jon Slangerup will also lead a renewable hydrogen energy panel discussion on the Eco-Village stage on both days of the festival (1:05PM on Saturday, 1:15PM Sunday). Under Mr. Slangerup's leadership, the Stuart Energy team has established the company as the undisputed brand and market leader for on-site hydrogen infrastructure solutions based on water electrolysis. The company's mission is to pioneer and remain the world leader in the design, marketing, and delivery of such zero-emission technologies, and be at the vanguard of the emerging global hydrogen economy, working for progress in areas including energy security, climate change, and air pollution.

One of many examples of Stuart Energy's work to be illustrated at SHOW -- The Renewable Energy Roadshow is their installation of hydrogen fueling stations across California including stations that support Toyota's Fuel Cell Vehicle Community Program. The Toyota Highlander FCHV, Toyota's prototype hydrogen fuel cell vehicle, will be on site at SHOW.

Combining education and entertainment, Stuart Energy and SHOW brings the renewable hydrogen marketplace and other environmentally conscious innovations to the public. By strategically launching as a "Festival Within A Festival" at broader mainstream events, their audience potential is massive. Stuart Energy and SHOW are at the forefront of many ideas that may seem futuristic at first glance, but renewable hydrogen solutions are becoming globally acknowledged as the "energy end game." Our future as a planet depends on it.
