<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Environmental Power Corporation (the &#147;Company&#148;) announced that it received an additional Nasdaq Staff Determination (the &#147;Additional Staff
Determination&#148;) on April&nbsp;12, 2010 indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the minimum stockholders&#146; equity requirement for continued listing set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), and that the Company&#146;s
securities are, therefore, subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market. Because the Company&#146;s common stock does not have a market value in excess of $35 million, and the Company has not generated at least $500,000 in net income during
the last fiscal year or at least two of the last three fiscal years, the Company is required to maintain a minimum stockholders&#146; equity of at least $2.5 million to meet Nasdaq&#146;s continued listing standards. As of December&nbsp;31, 2009,
the Company had negative stockholders&#146; equity of ($19,480,522). This deficiency is in addition to the Nasdaq Staff&#146;s determination to delist the Company&#146;s securities as a result of the Company&#146;s failure to comply with
Nasdaq&#146;s minimum bid price rule set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), as previously announced by the Company. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company had
previously requested a hearing to appeal the Nasdaq Staff&#146;s determination to delist the Company&#146;s securities for failure to comply with the minimum bid price rule, which request for a hearing was granted. The hearing is expected to take
place on April&nbsp;28, 2010 (the &#147;Hearing&#148;). As suggested in the Additional Staff Determination, at the Hearing, the Company expects to present its views with respect to the failure to satisfy the minimum stockholders&#146; equity
requirement in addition to its plan to regain compliance with the minimum bid price rule. There can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Company&#146;s request for continued listing. </FONT></P>
