Fuel cell technology is starting to penetrate niche markets$500M Today Growing to $1B in 2014, Potentially Even Faster Growth After 2015
Stationary market growing rapidly 1-5kW size for telecom back-up in
emerging markets But, larger size applications
beginning to accelerate Materials handling also growing
Driven largely by Plug Power, recently placed 3,000 unit order from Ballard
Size range increasing, now up to 20kW
CHP continues to grow in Japan Recently nuclear problems have
accelerated interest German commitment via Callux

Challenges remain to achieve mass market take up Cost down
Mass market supply chain More cost effective durability
Re-fuelling Infrastructure For automotive & transport For niche application (packed gas logistics) For integration in renewable systems
System Integration and increased awareness Investment in innovation Reduction in development risk versus investment payback

A fundamentally lower cost, more reliable PEM Fuel Cell System
FlowCath® replaces up to 90% of the expensive platinum catalyst found in a PEM Fuel Cell with a safe, low cost, water-based catalyst solution.Which eliminates the need for membrane dehydration, has no peroxide attack, and no catalyst deactivation that leads to improved reliability and robustness At the same time it eliminates the need for humidification, air and fuel pressurization, and a separate cooling system.Provides cost savings of 40% and greater over conventional PEM Fuel Cell systems.Technology can be applied to PEM Fuel Cells from 1 to 200kW+ in size.
