Scancell founder says the company is ready to commercialise novel medicines to counteract cancer. Watch the video here.
No, BB, just using what's available on the website. There are two charts; one is Fatalities per Gigawatt and the second is Maximum Consequences (Fatalities) both are visible on the page and just about readable when enlarged.
What I can see from the diagrams AFC type fuel cells show less fatalities per GW than MCFC and PAFC fuel cells, Oil Natural Gas and Coal. MCFC is also the highest of the fuel cells in the Maximum Consequences (Fatalities) chart, with Oil being by far and away the most significant on that particular chart. A scientific paper on accident risk for hydrogen use was something probably badly needed as detractors in the past had a habit of bringing up the Hindenberg disaster.
AB's statement in the 19th Jan RNS does rather indicate the possibilities Sturm. :) Another month or so and I wouldn't describe it as near-term! Integration into De Nora's product looks like a distinct possibility. "Over the past twelve months, in expectation of these positive results, AFC Energy's management has held advanced talks with several third-party technology providers where integration of the AFC Energy fuel cell system creates a near-term commercial deployment opportunity. "
De Nora are the third party verifying AFC's tech and putting their reputation on the line to future customers of their various products in which AFC's systems are going to be incorporated. I would have thought AFC need to prove the tech officially to De Nora, so that De Nora can then show the stats to their clients. Anyway that's my take on it.
Hi iWantThatOne, I was assuming that the trial at Stade was more like testing the stacks in a commercial environment, with all the vagaries that that entails, to prove to buyers that the stacks are robust enough to take real world H2, etc.
It's not the testing that De Nora are in charge of but I seem to recall way back that it was said that it would be De Nora that would certify when AFC's fuel cell was commercial. Perhaps, if it's De Nora's waste water process that AFC are going to be involved with and De Nora are going to be doing the manufacturing, then AFC are happy to let De Nora give the final go ahead. It depends on what the relationship is for that particular project.
Hi Notes, I don�t know either, but even if the new FO is bound by the 30-day rule, the new FO is only subject to what AFC knows. AFC, I presume, have no control over De Nora or at what point De Nora decide to make an announcement and certify the fuel stack. Therefore, the certification could come through at any time after De Nora has satisfied itself that all metrics have been met and that could be within the 30-day period. Subsequent to certification, fuel cell systems at Dunsfold etc could easily kick in - none of that would be insider knowledge.
I suppose if AFC are reliant on De Nora giving the go ahead for a fully functioning fuel cell, then AFC aren't responsible for when that certification is released? However he is Chief Financial Officer designate of the Company, which to my mind means he isn't in position yet, so is he subject to the 30 day rule?
