Do we know how they hydrogen is going to be manufactured, and how delivered? Perhaps by a variety of production methods.

Bear in mind that this latest investigation was started by the US and the FCA are just holding their jackets. Unfortunately it doesn't mean that the FCA have suddenly got a grip.

Today at 3:00 PM.

Even if there is money available (which I doubt) the question is , will the UK govt. be willing to hand it out?

I certainly hope that AFC will be able to stand on its own feet sometime this year, and will no longer be dependant on grants from anywhere. I suspect that there will be a lot less grants coming from the UK government for anyone after Brexit.

If PHE are talking to Toyota I bet its to do with their hydrogen/fc trucks rather than cars: hTTps://www.theverge.com/2017/10/12/16461412/toyota-hydrogen-fuel-cell-truck-port-la

I believe that TP did part of the last PHE placing and SVS Securities also did part.

I read about this yesterday and thought that the FCA had found their teeth at last. Now I discover that it is actually the USA that have taken the action, and the FCA are just "assisting". Ah well, never mind!

I would like to know who the 10 were, as I very possibly held some of them!

Even though all of the detailed records of the tests and the results has not been made available to the public (nor should they) perhaps it is not unreasonable to assume that critical organisations such as Peel and Wrightbus will have done in-depth due diligence into the technology and the tests before signing MOUs with PHE. Yes, we know that an MOU is not the same as a binding contract, but these organisations will be very mindful of their credibility, and they certainly would not want to be seen to sign up with an outfit that might turn out to be a bunch of cowboys. So that gives me confidence in the technology, the company, and in particular the management team.

With your obvious interest in butterflies, I'm surprised that you didn't call yourself "Red Admiral" instead of "BumbleB"!

Thanks guys!

Long document, but main change is that they now say spud in July and first oil in September. That's not what Bobo told us in December.

Indeed. I thought at one point AFC were talking about possibly providing heating as well as electricity, or did I get that wrong?

In the RNS dated 24 Feb. 2017, it was stated: PowerHouse is negotiating a commercial relationship with University of Chester, which would allow the Company to both demonstrate its technology, but to also connect to the facility�s �micro-grid� for the supplying of power to Thornton in situ. Since then I have not seen anything to confirm that they are actually supplying power to the Thornton Park micro-grid, but It is very possible that they are doing so. That would make more sense than continuing to flare off the syngas that is being produced during testing a variety of feedstocks. I assume that the AFC fuel cell system hasn't arrived at Thornton Park yet, but they could nevertheless supply power using a gas generator.

Time to sell my Model T then?

Thanks Bumble.

A very interesting article. Can anyone explain the main differences between this system and AFC's system? I gather that AFC operates at under 100 degrees C but it seems that this system can operate lower than this, at room temperature?
