      Es gibt ja im Gegensatz von vor einigen Jahren auch mittlerweile Aufträge von staatlichen Entwicklungsprogrammen, Militär und Firmen, die Produkte mit Brennstofftechnologie entwickeln.

      Bei Ballard hats ja letzte Woche gefunkt. Wäre schön, wenn fuelcell als US Hersteller von den US Programmen die Barak Obama auflegt profitiert.

      FuelCell Energy Inc.

      DANBURY, Conn., April 6, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FuelCell Energy, Inc. (NasdaqGM:FCEL - News), a leading manufacturer of high efficiency, ultra-clean power plants using renewable and other fuels for commercial, industrial, government and utility customers, today announced the sale of a 300 kilowatt (kW) Direct FuelCell(r) (DFC(r)) power plant to improve the availability of reliable and environmentally friendly electricity for Barksdale Air Force Base (AFB) in Louisiana.
      Related QuotesSymbol Price Change
      FCEL 2.58 +0.02



      The DFC power plant was purchased by Concurrent Technologies Corporation (CTC), under contract with the United States Air Force Advanced Power Technology Office (APTO). CTC will provide research, design, development, testing, demonstration, and sustainment of the 300 kW carbonate fuel cell system at Barksdale AFB, Louisiana. The system is expected to be operational in early 2010.

      The U.S. government is the largest electricity consumer in the world, with thousands of government buildings and military facilities in the U.S. and abroad. As the government continues to deploy ultra-clean, efficient DFC power plants, it will reduce its emissions and peak power requirements while increasing power reliability.

      DFC fuel cell power plants generate power electrochemically, without combustion, producing near-zero air pollutants like NOX, SOX and particulate matter. FuelCell Energy's power plants generate baseload electricity 24/7 with 47 percent electrical efficiency, compared to 25 to 40 percent for combustion-based technology their size. When used in a combined heat and power application where the fuel cell's byproduct heat is being used for hot water or for space heating, DFC power plants can achieve up to 80 percent system efficiency. This efficiency results in significantly reduced CO2 emissions and lower power costs.

      As a key Air Combat Command base, Barksdale has a pivotal role in the nation's deterrent force and serves as headquarters for the 2nd Bomb Wing, the oldest bomber wing in the Air Force. DFC power plants increase energy reliability and security because they operate locally independent of the grid. The DFC300 will support Barksdale's critical operations in emergencies such as blackouts, natural disasters, weather events and other threats to the grid. By supplementing the base's power grid with 24/7 baseload power, the DFC power plant increases the availability and reliability of Barksdale's power supply.

      ``DFC power plants are a high-efficiency, distributed power generation solution that meets Barksdale's high reliability and security requirements,'' said Bill Foster, Vice President Government Business Development for FuelCell Energy. ``Installing a DFC power plant furthers the U.S. Department of Defense plan to increase energy efficiency and use more clean generation sources as set forth in the Energy Policy Act of 2005.''

      I. INTRODUCTION

      A. SUMMARY

      In this Decision, the Department evaluates the seven proposals submitted pursuant to Conn. Gen. Stat. § 16-244c(j)(2), as amended by Section 124 of Public Act 07-242, which requires the electric distribution companies to file with the Department no later than October 1, 2008, power purchase contracts from Class I renewable energy source projects that receive funding from the Renewable Energy Investment Fund. The Department conditionally approves five contracts with approximately 27.3 megawatts of renewable source generation (based on seasonal average capacity) consisting of five fuel cell facilities. These projects, when combined with the fifteen megawatt contract approved in Round 1 and one hundred nine megawatts approved in Round 2 result in a total of approximately one hundred fifty three megawatts of renewable energy source generators approved to date. The Department thereby finds this complies with the one-hundred fifty megawatt legislative mandate.

      B. LEGAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND

      General Statutes of Connecticut § 16-244c(j)(2) (Conn. Gen. Stat.), as amended by Section 124 of Public Act 07-242, requires the electric distribution companies (EDCs) to submit to the Department for its approval long-term purchase power agreements from Class I renewable energy source projects that receive funding from the Renewable Energy Investment Fund. On or after October 1, 2007 and until September 30, 2008 such agreements shall be comprised of not less than a total, apportioned among each EDC, of one hundred twenty five megawatts (MW); and on and after October 1, 2008 such agreements shall be comprised of not less than a total, apportioned among each EDC, of one hundred fifty MW.

      In the Decision dated October 20, 2004, in Docket No. 03-07-17, DPUC Review of Long-Term Contracts, the Department approved the process and the electricity purchase agreement (EPA) to be used to implement Conn. Gen. Stat. § 16-244c(j)(2).
      The stated goal of the process was to support the development and financing of
      new renewable energy sources by providing long term contracts for their output.
      The October 20, 2004 Decision created a three-step review and selection process in
      which the Connecticut Clean Energy Fund (CCEF); the EDCs, The Connecticut Light
      and power Company (CL&P) and The United Illuminating Company (UI); and the
      Department of Public Utility Control (Department) each play a role. Specifically, CCEF
      1) performs the initial review and selection of proposed projects; 2) determines project
      financial and technical viability of the project; other costs/benefits related to the project;
      and the CCEF grant amount and 3) forwards projects to CL&P and UI for their review.
      UI and CL&P analyze the interconnection point and costs related thereto, reliability and
      other impacts of each project, the financial impact on utility customers after the CCEF
      grant and evaluate the projects’ costs and benefits. After CL&P and UI perform their
      review, they submit a written review to the Department for its review in a proceeding in
      which the Department will decide whether to approve or reject proposed projects.



      C. PROPOSED PROJECTS

      On September 16, 2008, CCEF, CL&P and UI submitted their summary and evaluation of project information, including their observations on each project. CCEF recommended five of the seven proposed projects, totaling approximately twenty nine MW for Round 3, and provided a ranking for the project selections. The projects are summarized below.

      1. Project Name: DFC-ERG Bloomfield
      Developer Name: DFC ERG CT, LLC
      Location: Bloomfield
      Type: Fuel Cell + Energy Recovery Generator

      7. Project Name: Hartford Fuel Cell
      Developer Name: TEN Companies
      Location: Hartford
      Type: Fuel Cell
      Size: 2.7 MW (seasonal average capacity)

      Two of the proposed projects in Round 3, Bridgeport Fuel Cell Park (BFCP) and Triangle, are resubmittals of projects proposed, but not approved, in Round 2. CCEF ranked BFCP 9th of 11 proposals in Round 2, and Triangle 4th of 11 in Round 2.

      CCEF initially recommended acceptance of the five top ranked projects. In a letter to the Department dated December 9, 2008, CCEF suggested also accepting the sixth ranked project, Triangle, to mitigate the anticipated impact of project attrition.

      All of the projects in Round 3 are fuel cells. Four of the projects proposed in Round 3; BFCP, DFC-ERG Bloomfield, DFC-ERG Trumbull, and DFC-ERG Glastonbury are under common ownership and are affiliated with Fuel Cell Energy, Inc., which is also the manufacturer of the fuel cells used in all of the proposed projects in Round 3. Two other projects proposed in Round 3, Cube and Triangle, are both owned by EPG Fuel Cell, LLC.

      D. PARTIES AND INTERVENORS

      The Service List in this proceeding identifying participants is attached to this Decision (Attachment A).

      E. CONDUCT OF THE PROCEEDING

      Pursuant to Conn. Gen. Stat. § 16-244c(j)(2), and a Notice of Hearing dated July 15, 2008, the Department established the above cited docket to hear evidence regarding seven Class I renewable energy source electric generation projects reviewed by the CCEF for the purpose of determining (1) whether these projects satisfy the criteria of Conn. Gen. Stat. § 16-244c(j)(2) and the Department’s decisions relating thereto; (2) whether the Department should approve or reject long-term purchase power contracts with these projects, and; (3) any other issues the Department deems relevant to the Department’s review of projects pursuant to Conn. Gen. Stat. § 16-244c(j)(2).

      Class I renewable energy sources are those defined in Conn. Gen. Stat. § 16 1(a)(26) and Conn. Gen. Stat. § 16 1(a)(45) for sustainable biomass. These sources include solar power, wind power, fuel cells, methane gas from landfills, ocean thermal power, wave or tidal power, low emission advanced renewable energy conversion technologies, certain run of the-river hydropower facilities, certain biomass facilities or any electrical generation, including distributed generation, generated from a Class I renewable energy source.

      Hearings were conducted on November 19, 2008 (transcript pages 1-263), November 25, 2008 (transcript pages 264-410) and December 10, 2008 (transcript pages 411-475), at the Department’s offices, Ten Franklin Square, New Britain, Connecticut.





      F. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECTS

      1. Bridgeport Fuel Cell Park Project

      The proposed Bridgeport Fuel Cell Park, LLC project (Bridgeport or BFCP) is a 15 MW maximum capacity project with five Direct Fuel Cell (DFC3000) power plants that convert natural gas into electricity and generate heat that can be used to provide heating and cooling. The project would be sited at a vacant brownfield owned by the City of Bridgeport, located in Southwest Connecticut. The project has been authorized for a grant from CCEF of $1,550,000. Project features include; Fuel Cell/Organic Rankine Cycle energy system, Natural gas supplied by SCG adjacent to project site, 5 Fuel Cell Energy power plants supplemented by 930 kilowatt (kW) of output from Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC). The project uses pricing option 6a.

      2. DFC-ERG Trumbull Project

      The proposed DFC-ERG Trumbull Project (Trumbull) consists of a combined fuel cell/turbo expander energy system direct fuel cell energy recovery generation (DFC-ERG) system. SCG is the gas supplier. Maximum capacity is 3.4 MW and the project has been authorized for a grant from CCEF of $50,000. Alternate pricing proposal is pricing option 6a, using a price modifier that would reduce project cost by $3/MWh.

      3. DFC-ERG Bloomfield Project

      The proposed DFC-ERG Bloomfield Project (Bloomfield) consists of a combined fuel cell/turbo expander energy system DFC-ERG. CNG is the gas supplier. Maximum capacity is 3.65 MW and the project has been authorized for a grant from CCEF of $50,000. Alternate pricing proposal is pricing option 6a, using a price modifier that would reduce project cost by $3/MWh.

      4. DFC-ERG Glastonbury Project

      The proposed DFC-ERG Glastonbury Project (Glastonbury) consists of a combined fuel cell/turbo expander energy system DFC-ERG. CNG is the gas supplier. Maximum capacity is 3.4 MW and the project has been authorized for a grant from CCEF of $50,000. Alternate pricing proposal is pricing option 6a, using a price modifier that would reduce project cost by $3/MWh.

      5. Cube Fuel Cell Project
      The proposed Cube Fuel Cell Project (Cube), developed by EPG Fuel Cell, LLC (EPG), is a 3.36 MW maximum capacity project that would use a FCE DFC3000. The project utilizes an unfired gas turbine. The project would be installed in Danbury, Connecticut and has been authorized for a grant from CCEF of $3,000,000.





      6. Triangle Fuel Cell Project
      The proposed Triangle Fuel Cell Project (Triangle), developed by EPG, is a 15.1 MW maximum capacity project that would use several FCE DFC3000 units, each with a net maximum output of 2.5 MW of electricity. The project has a nominal grant designation from CCEF of $3,000,000.

      7. Hartford Fuel Cell Project
      The proposed Hartford Fuel Cell Project (Hartford), developed by TEN Companies is a 2.7 MW maximum capacity project that would use a FCE DFC3000. The project would be installed in Hartford, Connecticut. The project has a nominal grant designation from CCEF of $50,000.

      G. IMPACT OF FEDERAL ENERGY PRODUCTION INCENTIVES INVESTMENT TAX CREDITS

      During the course of the proceeding, the Department became aware of important legislative action at the Federal level. The passage of the “Energy Improvement and Extension Act of 2008” (the Act) by the United States Congress resulted in an extension and increase to energy production incentives known as “Investment Tax Credits” (ITC). The Act increased the ITC by $2,000 per kilowatt of capacity, subject to a thirty percent (30%) cap and reduced tax depreciation, for facilities producing electricity by employment of a fuel cell. Since all seven of the proposed projects in Round 3 are fuel cells, this has significant potential for ratepayer benefit impact.

      On October 3, 2008, the CCEF submitted a motion to the Department to stay the proceeding and allow the proposers to submit “refreshed bids” reflecting possible lower project costs based on the impact of the Act. The Department granted the motion, and CCEF thereafter reordinated the ranking of the proposed projects, based on the results of the refreshed bids. The reordinated list appears below.

      1. Bridgeport Fuel Cell Park (Originally ranked second)

      2. DFC-ERG Trumbull (Originally ranked third)

      3. DFC-ERG Bloomfield (Originally ranked first)

      4. DFC-ERG Glastonbury (Originally ranked fourth)

      5. Cube (Originally ranked fifth)

      6. Triangle (Originally ranked sixth)

      7. Hartford Fuel Cell (Originally ranked seventh)

      In their written exceptions UI recommended that the Department add a provision that would require selected projects to pursue American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) stimulus funding and provide a commensurate price reduction to customers. The ARRA contains many provisions to support the development of renewable energy projects and similar initiatives through the availability of federal stimulus funds.

      The Department has further considered the likelihood that additional economic assistance may become available from the Federal government to fund projects selected under this program by way of ARRA. As with the ITC, the source of the funding under the ARRA is the general taxpaying public. The Department will not require the projects to pursue stimulus funding but recognizes that ARRA may create opportunities to provide benefits to both the projects and ratepayers. The Department believes that ratepayers should share in any benefit of this economic incentive, since they are the source of this funding and also bear the cost of this program. Therefore the Department shall require the approved projects to return 65% of the gross amount of any funding received under the ARRA to ratepayers by reducing the contract pricing under the EPA by a commensurate amount. The remaining 35% may be kept by the project. The Department will require each project selected to report to the Department annually the status of stimulus funding.

      II. ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED PROJECTS

      A. STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS UNDER CONN. GEN. STAT. § 16-244C(J)(2)

      Conn. Gen Stat. § 16-244c(j)(2) requires that each EDC providing transitional standard offer service, standard service, supplier of last resort service or back-up electric generation service shall, not later than July 1, 2008, file with the Department for approval of one or more long-term power purchase contracts. Such projects must satisfy the following statutory requirements: (1) qualify as a Class I renewable energy source, (2) receive funding from the Renewable Energy Investment Fund, (3) are not less than one MW in size, (4) have a price contract that conforms to one of the formulas set forth in Conn. Gen. Stat. § 16-244c(j)2) or the Department’s decisions, (5) located in Connecticut, (6) have an EPA contract of not less than ten years, and (7) will commence operation on or after July 1, 2003.

      The Department has reviewed the proposed projects, described above, and finds that each of the projects meets all of the statutory requirements (1) through (7) discussed above.

      Conn. Gen. Stat. § 16-244c(j)(2) also requires the Department to give preference to awarding EPA contracts to those projects that would provide a financial benefit to ratepayers or that would enhance the reliability of the State’s electric transmission system. Further, such contracts shall be comprised of not less than a total, apportioned among each EDC, of 150 megawatts by October 1, 2008. Projects must satisfy all of the statutory criteria to be eligible for awards of long-term agreements with EDCs. Additionally, the Department considered the CCEF’s recognition of the need for project locational diversity and technology diversity, as provided for in the CCEF Request for Proposal (RFP) document. The Department reviewed all of the proposed projects that satisfy the statutory criteria and, giving preference to projects that will provide financial and non-financial benefits to ratepayers or enhance the reliability of the electric transmission system, exercised its discretion and approved the projects that it determined are in the public interest.

      B. THE EVALUATION PROCESS AND POSITION OF PARTIES

      Pursuant to Connecticut General Statutes §16 244c(j)(2), as modified by Section 124 of Public Act 07 242, An Act Concerning Electricity and Energy Efficiency, the Department must approve long term contracts between renewable energy projects and the EDCs totaling not less than 150 MW by October 1, 2008. The Act states that, “in its approval of such contracts, the Department shall give preference to purchase contracts from these projects that would provide a financial benefit to ratepayers or would enhance the reliability of the electric transmission system of the State.” In implementing Project 150, the Department approved a multi phase review process for analyzing, selecting, and ultimately approving EPAs for those proposed projects that merit long term contracts.

      CCEF conducted an extensive ratepayer impact analysis. CCEF projected avoided energy costs, capacity values and the value of renewable energy certificates (REC) over the contract years, which was then compared to project costs to determine the ratepayer impact. Based on extensive review and analysis, CCEF determined five projects totaling approximately 28.8 MW merited an EPA. CCEF forwarded their recommended projects to the EDCs for their review and analysis.

      The EDCs reviewed and analyzed the projects and forwarded the results of their cost/benefit analysis based on the refreshed bids to the Department. In a filing dated November 10, 2008, the EDCs did not provide any recommendations as to which projects should be selected (Tr. 11/19/08 pp 32-33).

      The analysis by the EDCs compared the contract cost, based on the proposed project pricing, to the avoided energy, capacity and REC values. In the EDCs analysis, the energy value, Locational Marginal Price (LMP), was held constant over the combined life of the project. The projected LMP is the 24 month average of the (day ahead and real time) energy prices at the delivery point (as of 2400 hours on September 30, 2008), as required by the Department’s October 20, 2004 Decision in Docket No. 03 07 17 and its January 5, 2005 Decision in Docket No. 03 07 17RE01. Future REC and capacity values, although uncertain at this time, were estimated using consistent assumptions for all projects. REC value estimates were set at several price points for analysis, while capacity value estimates were set for all years at $4.50/kW-month. The EDCs used the $4.50/kW-month floor price from the Forward Capacity Auction (FCA) for the 2010/2011 Capacity Commitment Period (the first FCA) due to the uncertainty of the capacity market and because the first FCA ended at the floor price with an over-supply condition.

      The Department conducted four days of hearings. The record in this proceeding indicates a thorough Department review of extensive testimony and exhibits entered into the record, in which the Department conducted a significant amount of discovery and cross examination.

      The OCC recommends the Department accept only those projects that create a limited cost impact to ratepayers and that provide co benefits to the generation of Class I renewable power. While not citing a specific number, the OCC has recommended the Department only approve a “small number” of projects (OCC Brief 12/17/08). The OCC also expressed concern over the fact that Fuel Cell Energy (FCE) is in a “monopoly situation” (OCC Brief 12/17/08) as the sole producer of fuel cells for all seven of the projects under consideration in Round 3 and based on FCE’s apparent control over the market price of fuel cells.

      C. DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS AND PROJECT RECOMMENDATIONS

      The Department has reviewed the economic analysis provided by the CCEF, OCC and EDCs. The three analyses complement each other, providing several scenarios under different assumptions, which is useful in the evaluation and selection of the projects. The overarching principles guiding the Department in this proceeding are to ensure reliable and safe electric service at reasonable rates. Conn. Gen. Stat. §§ 16-11 and 16-244. See also Conn Gen. Stat. §§ 16-9 and 16-19e. With that in mind, the Department has considered the overall evaluation and recommendations of the CCEF, the ratepayer impact analysis conducted by CCEF, the EDCs and the OCC, a consideration of the of non-economic impacts of projects as provided for in the RFP, an awareness of the current economic climate, and the language contained in Conn. Gen. Stat. § 16-244c(j)(2) as amended by Section 124 of Public Act 07-242 in our determination of which projects to select for an EPA. While the Department notes OCC’s concern regarding ratepayer impact, it remains mindful of the compliance deadline contained in the enabling legislation. The Department’s analysis of these issues is discussed below.

      1. Analysis of CCEF, OCC and EDC’s Recommendations

      CCEF recommended the Department approve 27.3 MW of fuel cells, based on seasonal average capacity, comprising of Bridgeport Fuel Cell 14.3 MW; Trumbull 3.2 MW, Bloomfield 3.4 MW, Glastonbury 3.2 MW and Cube 3.2 MW. In support of their recommendations CCEF has conducted an extensive evaluation of the projects. The EDCs have also conducted an analysis of the impact on ratepayers. The Department has considered the ratepayer impact analysis conducted by both the CCEF and the EDCs as well as the analysis of non price factors done by CCEF, the recommendations of the OCC and others deemed important by the Department in its determination as to which projects to approve in Round 3 of Project 150.

      Each of the seven projects analyzed was projected to have costs significantly higher than market over the life of their contracts. That said, the five projects recommended by CCEF provide the lowest ratepayer impact of the seven projects analyzed under numerous scenarios performed by CCEF. Triangle and Hartford TEN are consistently the lowest ranking projects. The five projects recommended provide the lowest ratepayer impact on $/MWh basis in CCEF’s base case analysis. P.6 Exhibit F. The five projects recommended provide the lowest ratepayer impact under scenarios in which high electric and natural gas prices are forecasted (p.12 Exhibit F) and lower electric and gas prices are forecasted p.13 Exhibit F. The 5 projects also minimize the impact on ratepayers in cases where REC prices are higher or lower than the base case. p. 15, 17 Exhibit F. Finally, the results are the same whether the CCEF funding is included or excluded from the analysis. p. 19 Exhibit F.

      The initial ratepayer impact analysis of September 16, 2008 conducted by the EDCs supported the selection of the smaller fuel cell projects recommended by CCEF and rejection of Hartford TEN. However, Triangle provided less of an impact than Bridgeport under the low REC and mid priced REC scenarios and virtually the same impact under the high REC case on a cents/kWh basis. Since their initial analysis, the utilities provided an updated analysis to reflect the refreshed bids as well as changes to gas delivery tariffs approved for the gas distribution companies. The impact of the Bridgeport project declined significantly and improved relative to Triangle in the new analysis. Bridgeport is now projected to be slightly higher in the low REC scenario but significantly lower than Triangle in the mid high priced REC scenarios. Table 3 October 2008 filing. The Department believes the updated analysis by the EDCs further supports the recommendations by CCEF.

      The five projects recommended by CCEF rank best on ratepayer impact as well as the overall score based on their evaluation of the projects. The overall score is made up of the following: 55% Ratepayer Costs; 20% Project Feasibility, 15% Financial Viability and 10% Ratepayer Benefits. Evaluating each variable, Triangle was rated lower than Bridgeport in every category.

      After a thorough analysis of all the information, the Department believes the evidence supports the ranking of projects as recommended by CCEF. The Department, however, is very concerned with the overall impact on ratepayers expected from these projects. Based on an analysis of the net present value (NPV) to ratepayers, each of the projects under consideration has a potential for total costs of between 4.4 and 5.3 million dollars per MW, holding assumptions constant. The EDCs estimate the impact on ratepayers to be approximately $257.4 million, or $126.0 million on a present value basis above the cost of generation with a mid-range price of RECs of $25, if the Department were to approve 27.3 MW of fuel cells comprised of; Bridgeport Fuel Cell 14.3 MW, Trumbull 3.2 MW, Bloomfield 3.4 MW, Glastonbury 3.2 MW and Cube 3.2 MW in Round 3 of project 150. The cost would increase to $310.7 million or $152.6 million on an NPV basis if REC prices averaged $5.

      2. Financial Impact and Economic Climate

      In the Decision in Docket No. 03-07-17, the Department found cost alone should not be the determining factor in project selection. However, it is a substantial consideration, and the reality of the current economic climate is that the ratepayers of Connecticut may object to supporting the high cost of all of the Round 3 projects under current conditions. The plain language of Section 16-244c(j)(2) and other provisions governing the Department provide sufficient evidence of legislative intent to guide the Department. Neither Section 16-244c(j)(2) nor any other statutes of general applicability governing the Department require it to ignore the cost implications of the proposed projects and select them regardless of ratepayer impact. The Department confirmed its position on this matter in Docket No. 07-04-27 (Round 2) when it found that, had the Legislature wanted the Department to approve all projects that the Department finds meet the statutory criteria, without any review of the costs and benefits of projects, the legislature would have clearly indicated that the Department’s review role was so limited, and the statute would contain plain language stating that the Department must approve EPAs with any and all projects that satisfy the statutory criteria until the MW benchmarked was met and order that the costs of the EPAs be passed on to ratepayers through EDC rates. Although the legislation provides timelines for compliance with benchmarks, the overarching responsibility of the Department under this legislation is to act in the public interest, which includes consideration of cost impacts on ratepayers.

      3. Competition and Market Forces

      The Department is concerned about the apparent lack of competition in this solicitation. All of the proposed projects use fuel cells, and all are produced by the same manufacturer, FCE. FCE also owns four of the seven projects.

      The Department has also considered the economic impact on ratepayers of the conditions created by having a sole firm, FCE, being the equipment supplier for all of the projects in Round 3. In addition to the potential for FCE to control the costs of equipment, an additional potential for competitive impact is created by the fact that FCE is in a position of ownership in four of the seven projects in Round 3. Although FCE testified that it has intensions to divest itself of these projects at some point in the future, they never indicated a timetable for divestiture, or even a definite statement that it would, in fact, do so. FCE has presented the divestiture scenario as a possibility, rather than a definite outcome.

      Conn. Gen. Stat. § 16-244c(j)(2) grants certain air emission credits and tax credits to the owner of a fuel cell facility when it utilizes fuel cell equipment manufactured in Connecticut. Because of the value of these credits in this fledgling industry, it creates an economic incentive so valuable that the legislation results in a virtual de facto requirement to use fuel cells made in Connecticut in order to participate in Round 3 of this program. Based on testimony during the hearings, there are only two manufacturers in Connecticut capable of producing the type of fuel cells required: FCE and United Technologies Corp (UTC). Tr., pg. 382.

      The ability of FCE to control the price of fuel cells became apparent during the process of submittal of refreshed bids based on the change to the ITC. The sales agreement between FCE and its Connecticut customers included a provision where the purchase price paid to FCE would increase substantially, by $200 per kilowatt, upon passage of the ITC legislation. Tr., p. 384. During the hearing, FCE testified that its costs of production were in no way increased by the status of the ITC. Tr., p 388. FCE testified that the reason for the price increase to customers was that its costs were increasing. However, FCE presented no documentation, testimony or evidence regarding the cause or source of increasing costs, other than their generalized claim. This price increase by FCE would result in approximately $5.5 million in additional revenue to the firm, based on 25 MW of project selection, and an increase of more than $8.8 million if the Department selected all six projects recommended by CCEF. Despite the substantial sales price increase, no potential customer cancelled their order. The ability of a manufacturer to unilaterally raise prices without impacting sales is, in the words of the OCC, a hallmark of a monopoly. OCC Brief 12/17/08. The Department believes that FCE’s ability to dictate the market price of fuel cells used in this program is unacceptable and will address this matter in the Decision herein.

      The apparent intension of the U.S. Congress in passing the Act was to cause federal funds to directly support generation facilities that produce electricity by applying tax relief to that specific activity. It was not the apparent Congressional intent to apply this tax incentive to the manufacturer of fuel cells. The pricing policy of FCE in this matter has thwarted the intended purpose of the federal legislation. It is additionally the case that the Connecticut legislature’s purpose in including the air emission credits and tax credits predicated on using fuel cell equipment manufactured in Connecticut under Conn. Gen. Stat. § 16-244c(j)(2) has had the unintended consequence of resulting in a de facto price subsidy for one firm, rather than a general incentive to the development of fuel cells as a source of electrical generation in Connecticut, and this is all to the loss of ratepayers.

      4. Type of Technology and Fuel Diversity

      Each technology and project design brings uncertainties and risks with regard to project completion, timeliness and ability to meet capacity obligations. With regard to fuel cells, the Department shares with OCC the concern that all of the Round 3 projects are fuel cell projects based on the FCE’s 2.8 MW DFC 3000 fuel cell unit. In the proceeding in Docket No. 03-07-17 (Round 1) the CCEF indicated that diversity provides ratepayer benefits beyond cost, including: availability, reliability, energy security, environmental impact and economic development. The Department believes it is in the public interest that the number of projects in the Project 150 portfolio mix not become overly weighted toward any one technology. Presently, of the eight approved projects, three are fuel cells (DCF-ERG Milford, Stamford Hospital, and Waterbury Hospital), and all seven of the projects submitted in Round 3 are fuel cells. The Department continues in its backing of the development of fuel cell technology under this program. As a result of this Departmental stance, Connecticut maintains its unquestionable position at the national forefront of support for development of the fuel cell industry and the deployment of fuel cells in the generation of electricity. The Department anticipates that greater diversity of technology and fuel type, increasing the level of Class I energy sources in Connecticut’s generation mix, may be achieved in the future. The value of such diversity in technology and fuel type is also recognized in the selection criteria of the CCEF RFP.

      5. Summary of Analysis

      The plain language of Section 16-244c(j)(2) clearly directs the Department to assess project benefits, specifically financial benefits to ratepayers and reliability benefits to the electric transmission system, and gives the Department the discretion to approve or reject projects based on its review of benefits, provided that preference is given in the selection process to projects the Department determines provide said benefits. In the course of the proceedings in Docket No. 07-04-27, all participants were made aware that the Department viewed its role as screening projects for statutory compliance and reviewing the merits of the proposals and deciding whether to approve or reject proposals. Due to the severe projected rate impact, lack of competition in this solicitation and thoughtful analysis of all factors, the Department is hesitant with regard to selecting the nearly thirty (30) MW of projects recommended by CCEF in Round 3 of Project 150.

      The Department has considered the overall evaluation and recommendations of the CCEF, the ratepayer impact analysis conducted by CCEF, the EDCs and the OCC and the reliability of the projects in our determination of which projects to select for an EPA. The Department finds all seven of the projects, including the five recommended by CCEF, satisfy the seven statutory requirements of Conn. Gen Stat. § 16-244c(j)(2) enumerated in the Decision herein. Based on the language of Conn. Gen Stat. § 16-244c(j)(2), which requires the Department to give preference to projects that would provide a ratepayer benefit (or minimize ratepayer cost) or improve system reliability, the Department finds that, none the less, the language of the enablining legislation regarding the timeline for procurement of 150 MW directs the Department to accept the five projects recommended by CCEF. For the purpose of compliance with Conn. Gen. Stat. § 16-244c(j)(2), the MWh value of projects for use in the EPAs shall be determined by taking the kWh value as it appears in Section 3.5 of the EPA and dividing by 1,000 to convert to MWh. This is the maximum purchase quantity to be paid at the EPA specified contract rates.

      The Department also concludes that the price escalator negotiated by FCE with its customers, based on the change to the ITC, is not linked to or based on any increase in production costs of FCE, is opportunistic, and is not in the public interest. If the selected projects and FCE cannot agree to an adjustment in pricing to reflect the application of the full value of the ITC, and apply this full value to the project pricing, the Department will not approve an EPA for any impacted project.

      D. OTHER ISSUES

      1. Cost Recovery and Accounting Issues

      In their Briefs dated December 17, 2008, CL&P and UI request the Department make certain findings with respect to the ability to seek cost recovery for costs associated with being a party to EPAs approved in this Decision. UI Brief, p. 6; CL&P Brief, Attachment A. CL&P claims the BFCP project may result in future unfavorable accounting treatments if consolidation is required under FIN46(R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. CL&P brief, pp. 4-6. CL&P requests language in the EPA directing that projects provide information needed by CL&P to perform periodic review of accounting issues. CL&P Brief, pp. 7-8. UI and CL&P also request that the Department rule that entering into the EPA and cost sharing agreement are in the public interest and prudent, and:

      • that, with respect to the EDCs' performance and enforcement of the EPA and cost sharing agreement, the EDCs shall be entitled to recover costs impacting the EDCs found by the Department to be prudently incurred and specifically related to the EPA;

      • that Project 150 cost recovery shall be through the non-bypassable federally mandated congestion charge;

      • that, if future accounting treatment of the EPA causes financial impacts, CL&P or UI can file a rate case under Conn. Gen. Stat. §§ 16-19 and 16-244c(j)(2) at any time, and

      • that, if CL&P or UI is legally barred from filing a rate case during the time it is incurring costs related to an accounting treatment, it can defer those costs and seek recovery subject to the Department’s review of the appropriateness of the deferral and prudency review of the costs.

      As previously determined by the Department in the Round 2 Decision, the Department will allow full recovery of all prudently incurred costs associated with CL&P’s and UI’s participation as parties to the EPAs and Cost Sharing Agreements through an appropriate charge to ratepayers. The Department will determine if the power will be used to supply standard service or sold into the market in an appropriate proceeding closer to the in-service date of the projects. At that time, the Department will determine the charge under which these costs will be recovered. The Department will also allow recovery for any prudently incremental costs to administer these contracts.

      With respect to accounting issues, CL&P or UI can file a rate case under Conn. Gen. Stat. §§ 16-19 and 16-244c(j)(2) at any time, to seek recovery of prudently incurred costs related to any adverse cost impacts attributable to the accounting treatment of the projects approved by this decision. If CL&P or UI is legally barred from filing a rate case during the time it is incurring costs related to an accounting treatment, the EDCs will be allowed to defer those costs and seek recovery subject to the Department’s review of the appropriateness of the deferral and a prudency review of the costs.

      The Department also approves the provision CL&P requested to add to the EPA that would require the project to provide certain information needed by the EDCs to perform accounting analysis. The provision must specify that the parties are required to submit any dispute under this provision to the Department for resolution.

      2. Alternate Pricing Option 6a, Pricing Modifiers and Sale of RECs

      With the exception of BFCP, all of the projects propose retaining 50% of the RECs generated by their generation facility and transferring the remaining 50% of the RECs to the EDCs. The EDCs testified they would be responsible for selling the RECs transferred from these projects (Tr. 11/19/08 pp 188-189). The proposal originally submitted by BFCP includes retention of 100% of the RECs by BFCP and a transfer of value from BFCP to the EDCs, based on the price per MWH at which the RECs are sold. Under their proposal, BFCP would retain the total sale proceeds if the sale price of RECs is $6/MWH or less. If the actual sale price of the RECs is greater than $6/MWH, BFCP would transfer to the EDCs the portion of the sale price greater than $6/MWH. In either price scenario, BFCP can retain no more than $6/MWH for the RECs.

      Two issues were raised during the proceeding regarding the REC proposal by BFCP. One issue was whether their proposal was consistent with approved pricing option 6a and the second issue concerns the retention and/or sale of RECs generated by the projects

      During the proceeding, an issue was raised regarding the interpretation of the appropriate application of the “B” factor price modifier under pricing option 6a proposed by BFCP in its bid. EPG claimed BFCP’s bid was not compliant with the CCEF request for proposal (RFP) based on the assertion the pricing modifier was not in conformance with an RFP parameter requiring any price modifier result in a fixed price. (EPG Brief December 17, 2008, pp 3-7).

      BFCP stated they believed EPG had misinterpreted two relevant matters; that the EPG claim was reliant on the summary of the CCEF “question and answer” session (Q&A) conducted on May 7, 2008 at the Crown Plaza Hotel in Cromwell, CT in the Round 3 RFP, and that EPG had misunderstood the intended meaning of the words “fixed adjustment” in the Q&A. BFCP made the claim the Q&A was not part of the RFP, and therefore lack of conformance with language contained in the Q&A summary could not be used to disqualify any bid. BFCP further claimed the term fixed adjustment as used in the Q&A did not mean fixed number.

      CCEF testified the term used in the Q&A was “fixed adjustment”, not fixed number (CCEF Response to LFE-2 and Tr. pp 80-81, 178-179, 342-343). CCEF also stated the Q&A summary was not part of the RFP (Tr. pg 199-200). CCEF further stated that the BFCP bid with the price modifier was compliant with the RFP. (Tr. pg 201).

      The Department has evaluated the content of the RFP issued by CCEF in connection with Round 3 and has examined the content of the Q&A summary. It is clear to the Department the Q&A summary was not a constituent component of the RFP, but was, rather, the outcome of an informal meeting conducted to clarify certain matters related to the RFP. It is also certainly the case the wording in the Q&A summary uses the term “fixed adjustment”, not “fixed number”, and that CCEF could have used the term “fixed number” if that had been the intended message, but chose not to. It does not appear CCEF intended the Q&A session to be part of the RFP document, and the Department does not find that CCEF presented it as such to any bidder. The primary purpose of pricing option 6a was to allow greater flexibility for fuel cell projects to develop pricing that would lower costs from those in the legislatively allowed pricing option. (Pricing Option 6) The Department does not find fault with CCEF’s interpretation of the relationship between the RFP and the Q&A session, nor with the CCEF’s interpretation of the meaning of “fixed adjustment”, as used in the Q&A. The Department believes that the proposal is consistent with the intent of the Departments approval for 6a. Therefore the Department concludes the pricing proposed by BFCP is compliant with the CCEF RFP.

      Regarding the sale of RECs, in response to Late Filed Exhibit-8, BFCP stated they are agreeable to two additional alternate REC sale proposals. BFCP would agree to register the RECs with the New England Power Pool Generation Information System (NEPOOL GIS). Once registered, BFCP would transfer the RECS to the EDCs, who would sell them and pay BFCP the sale proceeds, up to a maximum of $6/MWH, with the EDC retaining any sales in excess of $6/MWH. The other alternate proposed by BFCP was that BFCP would register the RECs with NEPOOL GIS, retain the RECs, and pay the EDCs a fixed rate of $6/MWH.

      The BFCP response to LFE-8 included a cost sharing proposal component for fees that may be paid to a third party broker for sale of RECs. BFCP proposed that the Company would be responsible for the cost of the brokerage fee up to $6/MWH, and the EDCs would be responsible for the cost of the brokerage fee related to the portion greater than $6/MWH. BFCP and the EDCs testified that they had participated in discussions regarding the brokerage issues. The EDCs and BFCP testified that they did not discuss projection for the anticipated actual brokerage fee during any such discussions with the EDCs. The EDCs stated their understanding that a typical brokerage fee would be 2 to 3% (two to three percent). BFCP stated that during internal company discussions at BFCP, an appropriate brokerage fee of 10% (ten percent) was suggested. The EDCs and BFCP both stated that any brokerage fee should be structured in a way to motivate the broker to obtain the best value for the RECS (e.g. a percentage of the sale price). Tr. 12/10/08 pp 430-435 and 449-452.

      The EDCs proposal stipulated a variety of reporting responsibilities for BFCP. Under the EDCs proposal, BFCP would be required to report to the EDCs on REC sale transaction dates and amounts and the proposal includes the assignment of arbitrary benchmark values for RECs created but not sold within any particular calendar month.

      The Department believes that the best option, to ensure that ratepayers receive the benefits of the RECs is for BFCP to transfer 100% of the RECs to the EDCs. The EDCs would then sell the RECs and return up to $6/MWH to BFCP. Since the EDCs will already be obligated to sell RECs generated by other facilities, the Department finds that having the EDCs also sell the RECs generated by BFCP does not create any additional burden for the EDCs nor any unique accounting issues. Since the EDCs already must sell RECs; there is generally no need to use brokers that would only reduce revenues and increase costs to ratepayers. BFCP has agreed that they will not dispute the sales price if RECs sell below $6/MWH. (BFCP Response to LFE-8). This removes one more argument of CL&P’s in opposition to them selling the RECs.

      The Department finds BFCP submitted a price modifier that is based on the expected contract price for RECs, and their proposed price modifier did not mention or include any allowance for transaction fees. The Department believes that the RECs from this project should be treated as the RECs from other projects that must be sold by the electric distribution companies. The Department generally does not believe a third party broker is needed to sell the RECs but will allow brokers if it is in the best interest of customers to do so.

      In response to LFE 8, the EDCs stated they preferred that BFCP shoulder the responsibility for the registration and sale of all RECs generated by the project. The EDCs expressed concern regarding retention of the RECs. The EDCs indicated they had concerns regarding the “potential for the utilities to influence (either directly or indirectly) the financial health of the project” and that they were concerned regarding the impact this might have “for consolidation under accounting rules” if the EDCs were involved in the sale of the BFCP RECs. Response to LFE-8. In written exceptions CL&P indicated that based on a preliminary analysis, the BFCP proposed price multiplier would shift additional project variability to CL&P and therefore could require consolidation of Bridgeport’s financial statements into those of CL&P.

      The Department does not perceive how the EDCs could be accused or suspected of having the ability to influence or control the market price for RECs, or how the EDCs selling the BFCP RECs differs in any significant way from their obligation under this program to sell RECs generated by the program’s other generating facilities. CL&P could not provide a reasonable explanation why they believed this project is so much riskier than other projects. CL&P has numerous generation contracts for hundreds of megawatts through IPPs, EIA and Project 150, none of which have required consolidation. The nebulous accounting concerns of the EDCs with regard to the sale of BFCP RECs appear to the Department to be unfounded. The sale price of all RECs is uncertain. This uncertainty is similar to other projects. However, the EDCs are allowed full recovery of all costs of these projects so that there is no uncertainty of cost recovery regardless of REC prices.

      Based on this analysis the Department will require BFCP to transfer 100% of the RECs to the EDCs. The EDCs would then sell the RECs and return up to $6/MWh to BFCP.

      It is the Department’s intent to avoid consolidation if possible. The Department therefore will require CL&P to provide an opinion by its outside auditors by June 15, 2009 as to whether the BFCP contract will require consolidation as approved herein. If consolidation is required the Department will allow BFCP to retain the RECs, sell them though a broker and transfer the revenues to the EDCs as indicated in Late File 8.

      3. Project Cost Allocation

      With regard to project cost allocation between the EDCs, the Department directs that the costs shall be shared in accordance with the cost allocation apportionment between CL&P and UI, using the agreement previously approved by the Department in its Decision in Docket No. 03-07-17RE03.
      4. Revisions to EPA Provisions and Pricing Options

      Recognizing that further procurement action may be required based on the possibility of project attrition, prior to conducting any future procurement the Department will consider whether certain improvements with respect to the EPA and Pricing Options for non-fuel cell projects should be developed. The Department does not intend for CCEF or others to address changes to Pricing Options for fuel cell projects.

      Based on the experience with the Clearview biomass project, the Department believes that project sponsors need to commit more fully to going forward with their projects before they sign and execute an EPA. In addition to the revision to the EPA regarding sharing of data needed by the EDCs to perform accounting analysis discussed above, the Department, therefore, directs that a working group comprised of the CCEF, OCC, CL&P and UI revise the EPA (1) to provide a requirement that projects post performance security which can be used to satisfy damages due to the project’s failure to meet its performance obligations under the EPA; (2) to provide for damages to be paid by projects for non-performance with respect to attaining commercial operation by the in service date specified in the EPA and other appropriate levels of performance specified in the EPA; and (3) any other appropriate revisions designed to assure project performance. The Department believes that such revisions will cause projects that are not fully committed to withdraw from consideration as only those fully committed will post performance security and take the risk of damage payments in the event they fail to perform obligations under the EPA.

      With regard to any future procurement needs caused by project attrition, the Department also requests that the working group examine whether the Pricing Options for non-fuel cell projects and price caps should be revised to achieve the following goals; 1) increase participation of other (non-fuel cell) Class 1 projects, 2) ensure that approved projects will be able to obtain financing and 3) assure that the price charged to consumers is not more than is reasonably necessary to assure projects obtain financing and to enable the project to earn a reasonable return on its investment.

      With respect to the EPA and Pricing Option issues discussed above, these working groups will submit for the Department’s consideration prior to any future procurement solicitation compliance filings reporting any consensus recommendations as well as various options for any issues for which a consensus recommendation was not achieved.

      III. CONCLUSION AND ORDERS

      A. CONCLUSION

      The Department has considered the overall evaluation and recommendations of the CCEF, the ratepayer impact analysis conducted by CCEF, the EDCs and the OCC and the reliability of the projects in our determination of which projects to select for an EPA. The Department finds that all seven of the projects, including the five initially recommended by CCEF satisfy the seven statutory requirements of Conn. Gen Stat. § 16-244c(j)(2) enumerated in the Decision herein. Based on the requirements of the enabling legislation, the Department therefore selects the five projects recommended by CCEF to receive EPA contracts, providing a total of 27.3 MW, subject to the modifications and Orders set forth in the Decision herein. In particular, these projects must agree to reduce their price to reflect the full ITC as a precondition to the Department approving EPAs for the projects and to an equitable distribution to ratepayers of any additional government funded economic incentive that may become available by applying sixty-five percent (65%) of the gross funding secured to reducing ratepayer costs. The procurement in Round 3 results in an overall total of approximately 153 MW authorized under Project 150.






      B. ORDERS

      1. Selected projects and Fuel Cell Energy shall indicate to the Department in writing if they agree to reduce their price to reflect the full ITC credit in their sales agreement to the level in place prior to the change in the ITC within 10 (ten) days of the date of this Decision and shall concurrently submit updated financial information to the EDCs. Selected projects shall also indicate to the Department in writing if they agree to future reductions in price to reflect any value secured by the project(s) under the ARRA based on applying sixty-five percent (65%) of the gross funding secured to reducing ratepayer costs and to report annually to the Department by January 1 each year any funding so received.

      2. For projects that agree to adjust their price in response to Order 1 above, CL&P and UI shall file with the Department executed contracts that conform to rulings in this Decision with selected projects within 60 (sixty) days of the date of Departmental approval of the pricing reductions in response to Order 1 above.

      3. CL&P and UI shall collaborate with CCEF and OCC to revise the EPA for any future project(s) which may be considered in any subsequent round(s) to the Department’s review of long term renewable contracts (1) to provide a requirement that projects post performance security which can be used to satisfy damages due to the project’s failure to meet its performance obligations under the EPA; (2) to provide for damages to be paid by projects for non-performance with respect to attaining commercial operation by the in service date specified in the EPA and other appropriate levels of performance specified in the EPA; and (3) any other appropriate revisions designed to assure project performance and examine whether the Pricing Options for non-fuel cell projects and price caps should be revised.

      4. CL&P shall provide an opinion by its outside auditors by June 15, 2009 as to whether the BFCP contract, as approved herein, will require consolidation.

      Das problem mit dem Cash hat Ballard ja auch. das ist eben so, wenn Unternehmen seit einer decade entwickeln und nichts verkaufen.
      Aber die großen Wasserstoffentwickler wie Ballard, fuelcell etc. sind die einzigen industriellen technologieträger für fuel cells auf unserem Globus. Ballard musste auch die Aktien massiv verwässern, aber da sehe ich in dieser Branche nicht das Problem. Das liegt in der Natur der Sache. Wenn früher oder später die Technologie vom Markt oder der Politik angenommen wird, dann haben die jetzigen Big Player der Wasserstoffbranche natürlich ´bessere Chancen als kleine Startups ohne Erfahrung.
      Ich nehme an, das die USA auch versuchen wird vermehrt heimische Firmen zu beauftragen und zu fördern. Jetzt hat die US Regierung ja auch den Klimawandel begriffen und muss in Verbindung mit der Wirtschaftskriese neue Weichen stellen.

      Es könnte sein, dass das Umfeld für Beteilligungen in der Wasserstofftechnologie zur Zeit recht günstig ist.

      Es ist einfach unglaublich, zur Zeit könnte man warscheinlich mit einem Bruchteil der total sinnlosen Abwrackprämie die gesamte Wassertofftechnologie der Welt aufkaufen.

      Das wäre mal ein Coup einer Bundesregierung!

      wie kann man denn fuelcell pushen?
      und gestern der Wert war auch 100% US dominiert be dem gigantischen Umsätzen dort.


      Das sind alles Umsätze die können aus D nicht beeinflusst werden.
      Vor einigen Wochen hatte ich auch auf Ballard aufmerksam gemacht, ist ja auch wirklich gut gelaufen. Ich halte es eben für möglich, dass nun das fuelcell nachzieht wenn keine fundamental schlechten Meldungen kommen.
      Da denen das Cash ausgeht müssen sie sich ja nach neuen Partner umsehen, das gibt vielleicht dann auch noch Auftrieb. Natürlich reine Spekuation, aber dafür sind wir ja alle hier.

      (Printer friendly version) Connecticut Department of Public Utility Control Issues Final Decision Approving 27.3 Megawatts of Projects Using FuelCell Energy Power Plants Projects Help Connecticut Reach Its Clean and Renewable Goals for Power Generation

      :D Trendwende?

      DANBURY, Conn., Apr 9, 2009 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX) -- FuelCell Energy, Inc. (Nasdaq: FCEL), a leading manufacturer of high efficiency, ultra-clean power plants using renewable and other fuels for commercial, industrial, government and utility customers, today announced that the Connecticut Department of Public Utility Control (DPUC) issued its final decision approving 27.3 megawatts (MW) of projects incorporating the company's highly efficient Direct FuelCell(r) (DFC(r)) power plants. The sales value of the projects will be $84 million when project developers finalize electricity purchase agreements and project financing.

      The approved projects include nine FuelCell Energy DFC3000 power plants: 3.4 MW DFC-ERG for a natural gas letdown station in Bloomfield, Conn.; 3.2 MW Direct FuelCell/Turbine (DFC/T) for a substation in Danbury, Conn.; 14.3 MW DFC3000 in Bridgeport, Conn.; 3.2 MW DFC-ERG in Trumbull, Conn.; and 3.2 MW DFC-ERG in Glastonbury, Conn. The Connecticut Clean Energy (CCEF) Fund recommended the five projects under Round 3 of Project 150, which requires Connecticut utilities to enter into Energy Purchase Agreements for 150 MW of clean power. With this latest approval, the DPUC will have approved 153 MW of projects including 43.5 MW of FuelCell Energy power plants.

      "The DFC-ERG and DFC/T power plants achieve approximately 60 percent electrical efficiency -- the highest electrical efficiency of any available distributed generation technology," said R. Daniel Brdar, Chairman and CEO of FuelCell Energy. "This efficiency results in low carbon emissions because less fuel is used to produce electricity. And because our power plants do not combust fuel, our customers also benefit from near-zero emissions of NOX, SOX and particulate matter."

      Distributed generation fuel cells locate the power generation where it's needed, adding 24/7, baseload power to the existing transmission and distribution network. Because the installations are smaller than typical central generation power plants, they are easier to site, permit, and finance. Central generation plants are larger, take significantly longer to permit and construct, and have higher emissions. Additionally, they often require new, controversial transmission and distribution lines to deliver the power to where it is needed. DFC power plants can be deployed in approximately one year and require no new transmission and distribution investment.

      Connecticut is one of 28 states and Washington D.C. that have Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS). Under Connecticut's RPS, utilities are required to purchase 27 percent or approximately 1,000 MW of their power from clean energy sources by 2020. Fuel cells are an ideal part of the clean energy solution for RPS states because they provide reliable baseload power 24 hours a day, with near-zero emissions and low CO2.

      von wegen \"Push\", der Wert ist viel zu groß für einen Push. Ich würde es eher als Wildschweinnasenfund bezeichnen. Man soll sich ja nicht selbst loben, aber wenn stets versucht wird die Beiträge ins Lächerliche zu ziehen, gehen manche Entwicklungen dann doch runter wie Butter.

      Am 9.4. bei USD 2.50, heute 5.5. bei USD 3.40. Mein Thread scheint sich im Alltimelow eröffnet zu haben.

      Nichts für Ungut, werde mich nicht weiter loben:laugh:.

      Aber viel interessanter ist, was ist der kurzfristige Hintergrund für die positive Entwicklung? Langfristig, klar, Mittelfristig-eventuell der Start ins Wasserstoffzeitalter, kurzfristig weiss ich nicht, stehen News an oder sowas, oder einfach nur der Nachzug zu Ballard?

      California Wastewater Treatment Facility Expands Its FuelCell Energy Power Plant to Generate 1.0 Megawatt of Green Electricity


      Combined Heat and Power Efficiency and Near-Zero Emissions Meet City of Tulare's Need for Cost Savings and Clean Power

      DANBURY, Conn., Dec. 8, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FuelCell Energy, Inc. (Nasdaq:FCEL), a leading manufacturer of high efficiency ultra-clean power plants using renewable and other fuels for commercial, industrial, government, and utility customers, today announced the sale of a fourth DFC300 fuel cell unit to the City of Tulare, Calif. to expand the municipality's existing fuel cell power plant to 1.0 megawatt (MW) and increase the amount of green electricity produced at the regional wastewater treatment facility.

      With this expansion of its on-site Direct FuelCell(R) (DFC(R)) power plant, Tulare will generate more than 40 percent of the electricity needed to run its water treatment operation. The City of Tulare wastewater treatment facility serves a population of 58,000, processing 12.5 million gallons per day of sewage from domestic households and commercial sources of water discharge, including waste from the region's seven large dairy-processing enterprises.

      The San Joaquin Valley region has a myriad of challenges to improving local air quality because the City of Tulare is growing at more than double the rate of California's state-wide average. Fuel cells help address air quality concerns because they do not burn fuel, instead processing it electro-chemically to transform it into electricity, with near-zero emissions of NOX, SOX and particulate matter.

      Additionally, heat is created in the process, which the system captures and applies to Tulare's wastewater treatment process. This combined heat and power system can deliver an overall efficiency of up to 90 percent, which results in low CO2 emissions and reduces the wastewater plant's overall electricity costs.

      "The combined heat and power capability of FuelCell Energy's power plant has been ideal for us," said Lew Nelson, Tulare's Director of Public Works. "The fuel cells generate clean electricity and heat that we use in our anaerobic digester, making this system the most efficient and cost-effective for our needs."

      Because these DFC power plants operate on methane, a renewable byproduct of wastewater processing, they eliminate the air pollution that normally would result from releasing the biogas to the atmosphere or flaring it.

      "Tulare's wastewater facility is a perfect application for our products," said R. Daniel Brdar, Chairman and CEO of FuelCell Energy. "Wastewater facilities produce methane -- a gas that is over 20 times more harmful than carbon dioxide. Instead of releasing the methane to the atmosphere or flaring it, wastewater facilities use that gas in our power plants to cleanly and economically produce electricity and heat."

      Tulare's success in applying this approach to wastewater treatment was honored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency with its Clean Air Excellence Award earlier this year. Under the EPA'sGreen Power Partnership program, Tulare was named to the Top 20 List of the agency's "partners generating and consuming the most green power on-site."

      Auslaufmodell Wasserstoffantrieb
      BMW stellt Testflotte ein


      Angesichts des Trends zu Elektro- und Hybridautos schwindet bei BMW die Hoffnung auf einen Durchbruch des Wasserstoff-Motors.


      BMW trittt beim Praxis-Einsatz von wasserstoffbetriebenen Fahrzeugen auf die Bremse.
      (Foto: AP)


      "Es wird vorerst keine neue Wasserstoff-Testflotte geben", sagte Entwicklungsvorstand Klaus Draeger dem "Handelsblatt". "Wir arbeiten aber weiter an der Option." Geforscht wird nach Angaben eines Sprechers noch an Speicherung und Verbrennung des Wasserstoffs. Das Ende des Praxistests dürfte BMW sparen helfen, denn die Forschung an mehreren alternativen Antriebsformen verschlingt immense Summen.

      BMW-Chef Norbert Reithofer hatte zuletzt deutlich gemacht, dass Autos mit Wasserstoff-Verbrennungsmotor, aus deren Auspuff nur Wasserdampf kommt, nicht vor 2030 vorstellbar seien - weitaus später als erhofft. Als einen Grund nennen die Münchner die fehlende Infrastruktur. Andere Hersteller sind in die Erforschung der Technologie entweder nicht eingestiegen oder haben ihr bereits den Rücken gekehrt.

      BMW forscht nach eigenen Angaben seit rund 30 Jahren an dem alternativen Antrieb und stellte 1992 ein erstes Wasserstoff-Fahrzeug her. Seit 2006 testen Prominente aus aller Welt 100 Limousinen der 7er-Reihe mit einem Motor, der reinen Wasserstoff verbrennt. Wie der Sprecher sagte, sind noch rund 20 dieser Testwagen im Einsatz, etwa beim Weltklimagipfel in Kopenhagen. Sie sollen aber im Laufe der nächsten Monate aus dem Verkehr gezogen werden.

      FuelCell Energie (FCEL Zitat) gehört zu einer Handvoll Brennstoffzellenfirmen, die Dienstag auf überdurchschnittlichem Volumen sammeln, weil die Industrie die Bundesregierung ersucht, Brennstoffzellen unter „grünen“ Technologien einzuordnen.

      FuelCell Energieaktien stiegen 14,2% bis $3,61, sprang PLUG-IN-Power 9,6% bis 77 Cents und Ballard (BLDP Z) gewann 3,9% bis $1,88 während der Dienstag Sitzung

      Die Rallye kommt, nachdem ein Artikel im Washington Times Dienstag das großen Schwierigkeiten der Brennstoffzellenhersteller im inländischen Markt aufzeigte, wenn der Kongreß nicht Produktion und Gebrauch in den US fördert. Die stationären Brennstoffzellen, die von den Firmen wie FuelCell Energie produziert werden, sind Generatoren vor Ort, die Energie mit fast keinen Schadstoffen produzieren.
      Der Artikel bemerkte, dass Nachfrage nach den Brennstoffzellen in Japan und in Südkorea weit die inländische Versorgung überflügelt, da ausländische Regierungen Steuervergünstigungen oder Beihilfe den Firmen zur Verfügung stellen, die die stationären Brennstoffzellen importieren und verwenden.
      „Wir benötigen eine Gesetzgebung mit Bestimmungen die Entwicklung der Brennstoffzellen zu fördern,“ Pflege Bill, Vizepräsident der Regierungsgeschäftlichen Entwicklung für FuelCell Energie, sagten der Zeitung. Foster fügte hinzu, dass FuelCell Energie mit Kongreß arbeitet um besondere Aufmerksamkeit in den bevorstehenden Sitzunge.
      Mehr als 2,25 Million Aktien FuelCell Energie wechselten Hände bis 10:30 a.m. EST, verglichen mit dem gleitenden 50 Tagesmittel von 670.000 Anteilen. Die Firma hat ein 75,11 Millionanteil Float mit einem Float des Shorts von 9,4% 30. November, entsprechend Yahoo!

      von $ 3,16 auf $ 3,76 in einer Woche !

      niemand mehr dabei?
      noch beeindruckender als der Kursanstieg war das Volumen der letzten beiden Tage.

      TORRINGTON — Senator Christopher Dodd will visit Fuel Cell Energy in Torrington to unveil his fuel cell plan to power the creation of new clean energy jobs for Connecticut.

      The senator had plans for a January visit, but was delayed in Washington D.C. for business reasons.

      Dodd, who recently announced he would not seek re-election later this year, will tour the Fuel Cell Energy building on Technology Park Drive before announcing what his office is touting as a comprehensive strategy to expand the fuel cell industry and bring more green jobs to the area.

      The senator’s fuel cell plan aims to jump start Connecticut’s fuel cell industry by increasing the investment tax credit for fuel cells, setting goals for residential use, and providing incentives to manufacturers and consumers to use fuel cells. Dodd will tour the facility with Fuel Cell Energy’s Chief Executive Officer Daniel Brdar.

      Bryan DeAngelis, Dodd’s spokesman, said details of the green jobs plan would not be revealed until the actual appearance, but said it would focus mostly on developing fuel cell technologies, making the Torrington company the obvious choice for a venue.

      Dodd’s job creation agenda was originally presented at an East Hartford appearance in early December, with much of the plan dependent on embracing new technologies and manufacturing opportunities.

      The senator also proposed the creation of business zones dedicated purely to clean energy businesses, such as those that have begun to sprout up in the Torrington area like Fuel Cell and the Optiwind wind turbine company.

      Dodd stellt Brennstoffzellenplan in Torrington vor


      Durch das Büro des Senators Dodds

      Senator Chris Dodd (D-CT) war in Torrington, heute, um FuelCell Energie zu besuchen und seinen Planes vorzustellen, um den Gebrauch von Brennstoffzellen in Häusern und Geschäften zu fördern. Dodds Brennstoffzellenplan hat nicht nur das Potenzial, neue Jobs in Connecticut und überall in Amerika zu schaffen, aber auch den Gebrauch einer, sauberen Energiequelle des 21. Jahrhunderts zu fördern.

      „Connecticut ist bereits ein Weltmarktführer in der Produktion der Brennstoffzellen, die Verbrauch der Fossilienbrennstoffe verringern, Kohlenstoffemissionen reduzieren, und Energiekosten reduzieren durch den Vorteil am Ort erzeugen, innerhalb der Brennstoffzelleeinheit,“ sagte Dodd, der auf dem Ausflug von FuelCell Energie CEO Daniel Brdar verbunden wurde. „Wir müssen den Markt für diese Energiesparenden Produkte vergrössern. Wenn wir diese Nachfrage schaffen können, können wir neue Jobs und eine neue Industrie schaffen und eine neue Ära von Connecticut-Wohlstand heute schaffen.“

      Dodd schlägt einen dreistufigen Plan vor kickstart die Brennstoffzelleindustrie und Connecticut zu unterstützen. Zuerst zielt sie darauf ab, Connecticuts Brennstoffzelleindustrie zu fördern, indem sie unmittelbare Nachfrage nach Brennstoffzellen - und unmittelbare Jobs - indem die Anregung der Bundesregierung aufzugreifen, den Übergang zur sauberen Energie zu führen und in die Gelegenheiten zu investieren, in denen Brennstoffzellen verwendet werden können.

      Zweitens erhöht sie die Steuergutschrift für Anschaffung von Anlagegütern für Brennstoffzellen, aufmunternde Geschäfte, um ihre Anlagen mit den hoch-leistungsfähigen, Connecticut-errichteten Systemen zu erhitzen und anzutreiben. Schließlich Dodds stellt Plan ein ehrgeiziges Ziel für den Wohngebrauch von Brennstoffzellen - ein und versieht Hersteller und Verbraucher mit Anreizen, um ihn zu treffen.

      FuelCell Energy To Expand Business To Torrington
      By MARA LEE The Hartford Courant February 27, 2010

      TORRINGTON — - FuelCell Energy has won so much business from Connecticut utilities that it plans to expand its Torrington factory operations, which now employ 220.

      Bids won in December 2007 and April 2009 total 44 megawatts of electricity generation, which "would represent a little over a year's worth at current production levels," said CEO R. Daniel Brdar Friday. "It would force us to ramp up our production, including hiring."

      There's one catch — the factory hasn't started work on any of the fuel cells, because it doesn't have financing. The company needs to borrow a little more than $200 million to fulfill the orders.

      Once those loans are secured, Brdar plans to make the fuel cells over a year or 18 months, at the same time the company continues to build for clients around the world.

      The utilities signed contracts to buy energy from the fuel-cell power plants because of a state mandate that utilities buy 20 percent of their energy from renewable sources by 2020.

      Sen. Christopher Dodd, D-Conn., said Friday in a visit to FuelCell Energy that the federal government also should drive demand for fuel cells. In 2005, Congress passed a bill authorizing $100 million in fuel cell purchases by the military and government agencies, but hasn't appropriated the funding for it. Dodd urged his colleagues to do so.

      Brdar told a group of employees assembled for Dodd's talk that the company is trying to get financing through a Department of Energy loan program. The program, established in the stimulus bill, helps alternative energy products get financing through banks and from federal funds. FuelCell Energy, headquartered in Danbury, has passed the first application phase, and will submit its next phase in March. By June, Brdar should know if they've been accepted.

      The company is also pursuing Wall Street, hoping to find investors to underwrite the project.

      The fuel cells manufactured in Torrington can use a variety of fuels — natural gas, methane generated from biological waste, or high-sulfur diesel.

      Dodd told the crowd it was a pity all the fuel cells he saw on the floor are headed for power plants in South Korea.

      Brdar said 90 percent of the company's backlog of orders will be exported to Asia. It's a good thing that foreign buyers are paying for technology designed and built in Connecticut, he said.

      PRESS RELEASE: FuelCell Energy Urges Support for Sen. Dodd's Plan to Spur Broader Use of Fuel Cell Power Plants and Create U.S. Jobs and Manufacturing

      01.03.10 22:15:20- DJPN
      DANBURY, Conn., March 1, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FuelCell Energy, Inc.(Nasdaq:FCEL), a leading manufacturer of high efficiency ultra-clean power plants using renewable and other fuels for commercial, industrial, government
      and utility customers, today urged support for a proposal by U.S. Sen. Christopher Dodd that would encourage federal agencies and private business to increase their use of fuel cells as a source of electricity. At FuelCell Energy's manufacturing plant in Torrington, Conn., on Friday, Sen. Dodd (D.-Conn.) publicly announced a program to foster an immediate demand for
      fuel cell power plants. Building on aspirations set forth in the 2005 Energy Policy Act, the proposal seeks to expand the number of U.S. government facilities powered by this form of clean energy.
      The program also seeks to broaden fuel cells' use in the private sector by boosting the investment tax credit (ITC). Currently, when a business purchases a fuel cell for a highly efficient Combined Heat and Power (CHP) application --
      where heat naturally generated by the power plant is used in a related,
      energy-saving operation -- it is eligible for an ITC of up to 30 percent of the plant's cost (up to $3,000 per kilowatt). The new plan increases the ITC to up to 40 percent of cost (up to $3,500 per kilowatt) for CHP applications.
      Many federal facilities are well-suited to the compact, quiet profile that on-site fuel cell power plants represent. Under the Dodd proposal, government agencies would be required to identify qualified locations. FuelCell Energy power plants provide increased power reliability, improved energy security by
      distributing smaller power plants, and energy independence by utilizing domestic fuel sources. The resulting demand for fuel cell power plants would be expected to drive U.S. manufacturing and create new jobs.
      "The U.S. government is far and away the No. 1 user of energy in the world; no one else even comes close," said R. Daniel Brdar, Chairman and CEO of FuelCell Energy. "A program like this is a chance for the government to lead by example, and put these home-grown technologies to use for creating jobs, building a
      market for clean-tech products and sustaining American manufacturing. The positive effects would ripple through our economy for years to come."

      California Public Utilities Commission Approves 5.6 MW Fuel Cell Energy Projects to be Sited at State Universities

      DANBURY, Conn., April 12, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FuelCell Energy, Inc. (Nasdaq:FCEL) a leading manufacturer of high efficiency ultra-clean power plants using renewable and other fuels for commercial, industrial, government, and utility customers today announced that the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) has authorized Pacific Gas and Electric Company and Southern California Edison Company to undertake Fuel Cell Projects to install utility-owned fuel cells on several University of California and California State University campuses. FuelCell Energy, Inc. (FCE) will work with the utilities to finalize contracts. "The CPUC has clearly demonstrated a leadership role in advancing environmentally friendly power generating sources with this decision," commented Jeff Cox, Director Business Development, FuelCell Energy, Inc. "This ruling is another milestone for FuelCell Energy as we work with prospective customers and regulatory bodies in the State of California to encourage the use of our highly efficient and environmentally friendly fuel cells."

      The CPUC approval includes the installation of four FCE 1.4 megawatts (MW) fuel cell power plants at four state universities in California. PG&E's Fuel Cell Project will include the installation and operation of two FCE 1.4 MW facilities at California State University-East Bay and San Francisco State. The fuel cells plan to utilize the byproducts of the energy conversion process, including waste heat and water to meet the campus needs including thermal demand for heating the swimming pool at CSU-East Bay and using excess water for landscape irrigation. Southern California Edison's Fuel Cell Project will include two FCE 1.4 MW units located at CSU-San Bernardino and CSU-Long Beach. The fuel cells will interconnect and operate in parallel with Edison's distribution system and utilize the byproduct heat.

      This approval is part of a program to support ultra clean distributed power generation. Distributed generation can provide increased reliability, power quality and energy security. The fuel cell power plants are expected to be configured to generate base load electricity for the facilities in addition to recovering the surplus heat byproduct for heating needs. This configuration can achieve up to 80% efficiency. Additionally, because fuel cells produce power electro-chemically, without combustion, they produce near-zero harmful emissions.

      In conjunction with the installation of the fuel cell power plants, the state universities are expected to incorporate fuel cell technology into their respective curriculums to teach students and the public about the benefits of fuel cell systems. In the application for approval filed with the CPUC, F. King Alexander, President California State University – Long Beach was quoted from a letter of support stating, "A fuel cell system on campus would not only be a great addition to our energy infrastructure but would also be a significant educational opportunity for students to learn and experience emerging clean power technology."

      The State of California is one of the country's leading environmental advocates with over 75 different incentive programs and laws to encourage the use of clean energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. For example, AB32 caps carbon dioxide emissions while the state's Renewable Portfolio Standard requires 33% clean energy generation by 2020 and the Government Office Building initiative aims to reduce state-owned energy use by 20% (1,935 MW) by 2015 from a 2003 baseline. Additionally, the California Air Resources Board's CARB07 strictly regulates distributed generation power plants, specifying limits for emissions of nitrous oxides, carbon monoxide and volatile organic compounds. FuelCell Energy products meet all of these stringent emission requirements.

      Daimler und Toyota planen offenbar Kooperation bei Brennstoffzellen-Technologie

      Von Philipp Deppe | 25.Mai 2010

      Die Daimler AG und der japanische Autohersteller Toyota planen offenbar – nach Informationen der “Financial Times Deutschland” – eine Kooperation bei der Brennstoffzellen-Technik und bei Brennstoffzellenfahrzeugen.



      Toyota forscht seit 1992 an dieser Zukunftstechnologie für alternative Antriebe. Daimler entwickelt seit einem ähnlichen langem Zeitraum an der Brennstoffzellentechnik und hat laut eigenen Angaben bereits mehr als 1 Milliarde Euro dafür ausgegeben. Bereits jetzt gibt es mit der B-Klasse F-CELL, ein in Kleinserie gebautes und voll alltagstaugliches Fahrzeug mit dem umweltfreudlichen Brennstoffzellen Antrieb. Wir hatten bereits die Möglichkeit uns selbst davon zu überzeugen und können nur positives berichten (MB Passion fährt die zukünftige B-Klasse F-CELL). Ab 2015 wird die B-Klasse F-Cell in die :eek::eek:Serienproduktion:eek::eek: gehen und dann für jedermann erhältlich sein. Zeitgleich ist auch bei Toyota das erste serienmäßige Brennstoffzellen-Fahrzeug geplant, so dass ein Joint Venture durch aus Sinn für die Zukunft haben könnte. Weitere Informationen zu B-Klasse F-CELL sind hier zu finden.

      Daimler auf World Hydrogen Energy Conference: Elektro-Mobilität mit Brennstoffzelle ist bereit für den Alltagseinsatz

      Von Philipp Deppe | 17.Mai 2010

      Für das Engagement der Inititative H2 Mobility nahm Dieter Zetsche stellvertretend für die beteiligten Unternehmen zum Auftakt der Konferenz den “IPHE Award” (International Partnership for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells in the Economy) in der Kategorie “Excellence in Leadership” entgegen.



      Ziel der Initiative ist es, die Kommerzialisierung von Elektrofahrzeugen mit Brennstoffzelle voranzutreiben und Wasserstoff- sowie Brennstoffzellentechnologien zum integralen Bestandteil des automobilen Antriebsmixes der Zukunft zu machen. Das gemeinsam mit EnBW, Linde, OMV, Shell, Total, Vattenfall und der Nationale Organisation Wasserstoff- und Brennstoffzellentechnologie (NOW GmbH) beschlossene Memorandum of Understanding geht auf eine Initiative von Daimler und Linde zurück und hat sich den Aufbau eines flächendeckenden Wasserstofftankstellennetzes in Deutschland zum Ziel gesetzt.

      Daimler auf der World Hydrogen Energy Conference
      Die 18. World Hydrogen Energy Conference (WHEC) gilt als die weltweit bedeutendste Fachveranstaltung zum Thema Wasserstoff sowie dessen wirtschaftliche Nutzung als Energieträger. Die WHEC verfolgt dabei das Ziel, eine zukunftsfähige, umweltfreundliche Energiewirtschaft durch die Nutzung von Wasserstoff zu gestalten. Dazu diskutieren internationale Experten gemeinsam über den Stand der Entwicklungen sowie über die Marktvorbereitung und -einführung der Wasserstoff- und Brennstoffzellentechnologie. Der Fokus der diesjährigen Konferenz liegt auf Innovationen, Entwicklungen und den neusten Forschungsergebnissen der deutschen Industrie und Wissenschaft.

      Für die Daimler AG ist eine Beteiligung an dieser Konferenz im Rahmen einer Mobilitäts-Ausstellung ein selbstverständlicher Schritt, denn Elektromobilität mit Brennstoffzellen-Technologie ist integraler Bestandteil der Antriebs-Roadmap von Daimler zu nachhaltiger Mobilität. Sie ermöglicht lokal emissionsfreie Mobilität, bei kurzen Betankungszeiten und gleichzeitig hohen Reichweiten. “Es ist keine Frage mehr, ob die Brennstoffzelle eine tragfähige Alternative zum Verbrennungsmotor wird, sondern nur noch wann”, sagte Dieter Zetsche, Vorstandsvorsitzender der Daimler AG, zum Auftakt der Konferenz. “Die Technologie ist bereits marktreif. Um jetzt den Weg zur breiten Markteinführung zu ebnen, brauchen wir eine gezielte Forschungsförderung, eine effektive Marktaktivierung und verbindliche, weltweit gültige Standards”, so Dieter Zetsche.

      Ride & Drives mit Elektrofahrzeugen mit Brennstoffzelle
      Einblicke in den marktreifen Stand der Technik bei Mercedes-Benz geben Präsentationen und Exponate am Daimler-Messestand, sowie die Möglichkeit zum Ride & Drive. Neben der Mercedes-Benz B-Klasse F-CELL, ist auch der Mercedes-Benz Citaro FuelCELL-Hybrid auf der WHEC vertreten. Alle Besucher der Konferenz können beide Fahrzeuge im Rahmen der angebotenen Ride & Drives ausprobieren und selbst erleben. Beide Fahrzeuge demonstrieren eindrucksvoll die erlebbare Alltagstauglichkeit der Brennstoffzellentechnik von Daimler.

      Markteinführung von Elektrofahrzeugen mit Brennstoffzelle
      Laufende Demonstrationsprojekte, wie die Clean Energy Partnership (CEP), an denen die Mineralölwirtschaft, Energieversorger und die Automobilindustrie beteiligt sind, belegen, dass die Herstellung und Lagerung sowie der Transport und Einsatz von Druckwasserstoff ebenso wie der Aufbau der hierfür erforderlichen Infrastruktur technisch möglich sind. Darüber hinaus haben führende Automobilhersteller eine gemeinsame Absichtserklärung zur Entwicklung und Markteinführung von Elektrofahrzeugen mit Brennstoffzelle bekannt gegeben. Sie gehen dabei ab :eek:2015 von mehreren hunderttausend Fahrzeugen :eek:weltweit über den gesamten Lebenszyklus aus.

      Wenn wir Glück haben sehen wir hier einen schönen Rebound, potential nach oben scheint ja da zu sein (auch die Meinung des obigen Analysten).
      Die Kapitalerhöhung war ja erfolgreich und lag oberhalb des aktuellen Kurses.
