SymPowerco Expands Hybrid Electric Prototype Project
16 September 2009 - 9:30PM
Marketwired
SymPowerco Corporation (PINKSHEETS: SYMW) CEO John Davenport
announced today that the company has reentered discussions with an
automotive laboratory for the joint design, construction and
testing of Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) prototypes and Hybrid
Power Systems. The prototypes will serve as test beds for the
design of SymPowerco's Hybrid Power Systems. SymPowerco plans to
enter the Hybrid Power Systems markets with its unique Flowing
Electrolyte Direct Methanol Fuel Cell.
SymPowerco has broadly expanded the objectives of the HEV
Project to include feasibility studies for the early
commercialization of multiple Hybrid Power System configurations.
The project is expected to determine optimal battery requirements
for the HEVs, to test multiple types of batteries, to confirm
System Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) specifications for
SymPowerco's Hybrid Power Systems, to determine the fuel cell power
delivery requirements of the Hybrid Power Systems under various
load conditions and to determine the design issues involving the
retrofitting of existing plug-in electric vehicles with
SymPowerco's fuel cell and hybrid power technologies.
SymPowerco has identified extensive markets for Fuel Cell Hybrid
Power Systems including golf carts, small industrial vehicles,
three-wheeled taxis in the Far East (Tuk-Tuks), motorbikes and
similar small vehicles. Many national and local governments in the
Far East wish to replace millions of gas-powered motorbikes and
taxis with electric vehicles that do not require plug-in
rechargers.
It is anticipated that Hybrid Electric Vehicles will require as
much as 70% less battery weight compared to plug-in electric
vehicles. With batteries being constantly recharged by SymPowerco's
Flowing Electrolyte Direct Methanol Fuel Cell, a golf cart, for
example, could weigh as much as 200 pounds less than a plug-in golf
cart and would operate indefinitely by occasional refueling with
methanol, an abundant and economical alcohol.
SymPowerco Corporation develops advanced fuel cell and power
delivery systems for the rapidly growing personal transportation
and portable power system markets that are being created by today's
energy and environmental challenges.
