BOTHELL, USA: NEAH Power Systems will present its disruptive and unique methanol-nitric fuel cell, funded by the Office of Naval Research, at the 11th Electrochemical Power Sources R&D Symposium beginning today in Baltimore, MD.
Attendees include representatives from all branches of the military, as well as many leaders from the civilian energy sector.
Dr. Tsali Cross, VP of Engineering at NEAH Power, will describe NEAH's Development and characterization of porous silicon based methanol-nitric fuel cell prototype systems for portable military applications at the Power Sources Symposium. The presentation summarizes NEAH's research and development on anaerobic fuel cells.
"We are very grateful to the ONR for their generous support of the anaerobic direct methanol fuel cell project over the past year and we are happy to showcase our findings at this prestigious conference. The anaerobic fuel cell system will serve as the foundation for numerous fuel cell products," Dr. Chris D'Couto, NEAH's President and Chief Executive Officer, noted.

NEAH's first hybrid electrolyte aerobic direct methanol fuel cell
BOTHELL, USA: NEAH Power Systems Inc., the company developing fuel cells for the military and portable electronic devices, announced that it has achieved yet another major breakthrough with the demonstration of an air based fuel cell for aerobic applications.
This system, when fully developed, is expected to have higher energy density than any incumbent direct methanol anaerobic fuel cell available today, and could enable NEAH to pursue various additional consumer markets.
"This technology is differentiated in performance and architecture," said Dr. Chris D'Couto, NEAH's President and Chief Executive Officer, "in that it combines NEAH's unique liquid electrolyte and 3D silicon electrode technology, with the manifold inherent benefits in cost and manufacturability of integrated circuit manufacturing, with proton conduction membrane for proton conduction and gas liquid separation.
"In so doing, NEAH has created the first hybrid electrolyte fuel cell achieving gains over either liquid or solid electrolyte technology. Our micro fuel cells may eventually replace batteries for most uses."
On June 25, 2009, NEAH revealed it had successfully tested an anaerobic (or non-air breathing) direct methanol fuel cell which was primarily funded by the Office of Naval Research.

NEAH to develop fuel cell charger for India's EKO vehicles
BOTHELL, USA: NEAH Power Systems Inc., a company leading development in fuel cells for the military and portable electronic devices, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with EKO Vehicles of Bangalore, India, the country's number one producer of two-wheeled electric vehicles, to explore joint development of an on-board methanol fuel cell battery charger for their line of battery-powered electric scooters based on NEAH's novel anaerobic direct methanol fuel cell prototype.
NEAH, which successfully demonstrated a new type of low cost, high reliability and power, liquid electrolyte based direct methanol fuel cell that does not require air to operate, will adapt its technology for EKO's new line of EV 60 electric scooters. This second generation product is already being sold in the United States, Europe, and Asia. A video of the technology, markets that Neah serves and demonstration of the technology can be seen on YouTube, as well as on the company's website.
"This is a great opportunity to help reduce pollution in one of the earth's most populated areas, as NEAH fuel cells operate in both aerobic and anaerobic manner," Dr. Christopher D'Couto, NEAH's CEO, said. "Our micro fuel cells may eventually replace batteries for most uses."
"We welcome NEAH's technology as a valuable aspect of our goal to help eliminate the levels of air and noise pollution, which can be contained by the introduction and use of electric and hybrid-powered vehicles for short distance transportation in our cities, towns and villages," said Anil Ananthakrishna, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of EKOVEHICLES Pvt. Ltd.
