Vancouver, Canada, September 18, 2007 - Dynamotive Energy Systems
Corporation (OTCBB: DYMTF), a leader in biomass-to-biofuel technology, today
announced it hosted a tour of its Guelph, Ontario BioOil(r) plant - the first
facility of its kind - on Friday, September 14 with over seventy-five global
biofuel experts attending. The plant was operational and for the first time
the full cycle of production from wood chips to BioOil was demonstrated
publicly. The plant had previously undergone testing and inspection
processes by regulatory and technical authorities in readiness for
continuous operation. Previous tests conducted demonstrated the capacity of
the plant to operate at its nominal design capacity of 200 tonnes per day
biomass input. Dynamotive and Evolution Biofuels (Dynamotive's partner in
the venture) based on the successful start up will now proceed with the
final commissioning and synchronization of all systems task that is expected
to be completed within two weeks. The plant will be then operated by
Dynamotive's and Tecna's staff for 60 days before handing over the plant
operations to Evolution Biofuels.

had previously undergone testing and inspection processes by regulatory and
technical authorities in readiness for continuous operation. Previous tests
conducted demonstrated the capacity of the plant to operate at its nominal
design capacity of 200 tonnes per day biomass input.
Dynamotive and Evolution Biofuels (Dynamotive's partner in the venture)

commissioning and synchronization of all systems task that is expected to be
completed within two weeks. The plant will be then operated by Dynamotive's
and Tecna's staff for 60 days before handing over the plant operations to
Evolution Biofuels.
The tour was part of a two-day conference in Toronto sponsored by the IEA
(International Energy Association) Bioenergy Task 40-Biotrade, Bioenergy
Focus Ontario and the Canadian Bioenergy Association, a national non-profit
organization whose mission is to promote utilization of sustainable biomass
for the production of biofuels, heat and power.
The Guelph plant, with a capacity to convert 200 tonnes of biomass into
BioOil per day, was developed in partnership with MegaCity Recycling Inc.
and operates under the name Evolution Biofuels Inc. This Dynamotive flagship
pyrolysis plant was constructed using modules that minimize on-site
activities and allow for rapid deployment. It comprises eight fully
assembled modules and when fully operational will process 66,000 dry tons of
biomass per year with an energy output equivalent to 130,000 barrels of oil.
Prior to the tour, Dynamotive's Vice President Anton Kuipers presented the
company's strategic initiatives to conference attendees on Wednesday,
September 12.
Mr. Kuipers commented during the presentation, "With two BioOil plants
completed in Canada and plans underway for additional plants in Latin
America and in the United States, Dynamotive is moving ahead in its global
initiative to increase production of fuels from biomass."
Photographs of the plant tour will be posted on the Dynamotive website
today.

About BioOil
BioOil is an industrial fuel produced from cellulose waste material. When
combusted it produces substantially less smog-precursor nitrogen oxide
('NOx') emissions than conventional oil as well as little or no sulfur oxide
gases ('SOx'), which are a prime cause of acid rain. BioOil and BioOil
Plus(tm) are price-competitive replacements for heating oils #2 and #6 that are
widely used in industrial boilers and furnaces. They have been EcoLogo
certified, having met stringent environmental criteria for industrial fuels
as measured by Environment Canada's Environmental Choice Program. BioOil can
be produced from a variety of residue cellulosic biomass resources and is
not dependent on food-crop production.
About Dynamotive
Dynamotive Energy Systems Corporation is an energy solutions provider
headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, with offices in the USA, UK and
Argentina. Its carbon/greenhouse-gas-neutral fast pyrolysis technology uses
medium temperatures and oxygen-free conditions to turn dry, waste cellulosic
biomass into BioOil for power and heat generation. BioOil can be further
converted into vehicle fuels and chemicals. The final stages of the
commissioning process at the Guelph plant and the reconstruction of the West
Lorne plant may be seen by viewing photographs regularly posted on the
company's website at www.dynamotive.com
