About Clean Power Technologies Inc.

CLEAN POWER is engaged in research and development to enhance the thermal efficiency and effectiveness of power generation for all forms of transport by hybridization, from the light car, through the heavy truck to railway locomotives. The heart of the technology under development by Clean Power is the CESAR process using Clean Energy Storage And Recovery. In this the problems of the electric battery are avoided by using otherwise wasted heat to generate pressure in saturated water and then recovered as required by allowing vapor to form and expand through a suitable auxiliary engine. Coupling such a process with the most modern principles of electronic control of speed and power enables high efficiency joint operation of a combustion engine and the auxiliary power plant driven from the storage source where this is permitted and by the auxiliary alone for a limited duration. Clean Power plans to develop and commercialize this technology.
