For the three months ended March 31, 2009 (the "Period") the Corporation had operating revenue of $100,231 (2008 - $427,297). Revenues arose primarily from engineering and process design projects in Europe and the United States. Changes in Revenue for the period are attributable to the timing of revenue recognition on ongoing projects.

Commercialization, Product Development and Administrative expenses for the Period were $827,638 as compared to $439,076 for the same period in the previous year. The increase in 2009 is primarily attributable to the increase in salary expenses (additional engineering staff to resource up for upcoming projects), short term consulting and subcontractor expenditures necessary for investor relations and development of new collateral, and strategic project branding work.

Total assets were $28,909,726 for the Period, as compared to $20,513,383 as at March 31, 2008. The increase in total assets is primarily due to the injection of funds from the sale of shares which was reinvested in the short term deposits and long term investments as well as the acquisition of 10,000 common shares of Global Energy Inc. at a (non-cash) price of $2,017,260. These combined with amounts generated through operations result in a stronger overall asset position. Included in total assets for 2009 are short term investments totaling $8,871,106 in term deposits and accrued interest compared with $4,006,762 in the previous year. Also included are $358,055 relating to amounts receivable for government participants in the Hydrogen Demonstration Project as compared to $230,706 as at December 31, 2008.

For the Period shareholders' equity was $28,485,163 as compared to $20,392,939 as at March 31, 2008. Changes are due primarily to additional capital raised during the previous year and the effect of current operations.
