Mr. Michael Rosenberg reports
Ballard Power Systems is forming the California Fuel Cell Partnership - Driving for the Future. Under this unique collaboration between automobile manufacturers (DaimlerChrysler and Ford Motor Company), energy providers (ARCO, Shell, and Texaco), the State of California, and Ballard Power Systems, vehicles using Ballard fuel cells will be demonstrated and tested in real-life operating conditions.
The California Fuel Cell Partnership will place about 50 fuel cell vehicles on the road between 2000 and 2003. Ford and DaimlerChrysler will each initially provide five fuel cell powered passenger cars by 2001. The partnership will work with California transit agencies to test approximately 25 buses. The vehicles will use Ballard fuel cells and will be powered with engines and electric drives developed by Ballard's alliance partners, dbb fuel cell engines inc. (dbb) and Ecostar Electric Drive Systems (Ecostar). dbb and Ecostar are part of a global alliance formed between Ballard, DaimlerChrysler, and Ford to commercialize fuel cell drive trains for cars, buses and trucks.
An important aspect of this partnership is that it moves fuel cells out of the lab and into demonstration vehicles for testing on public streets. By involving three leading fuel providers, the collaboration will also address the larger issue of fuel selection and infrastructure requirements in preparation for commercial market introduction.
Through the California Fuel Cell Partnership, industry participants, the State of California, its citizens, and Ballard will gain insight into the real-life operation of this groundbreaking technology in cars and buses. Similar to Ballard and dbb's current bus demonstration programs operating in Chicago and Vancouver, experience from the California Partnership's demonstration programs will assist in preparing for the successful market introduction of fuel cell vehicles that may be fuelled by alternative fuels such as hydrogen or methanol.
WARNING: The company relies upon litigation protection for "forward-looking" statements.

The National Post reports in its Friday edition that Broken Hill Proprietary Co. Ltd.'s withdrawal from Shell Canada Ltd.'s proposed oil sands project has forced the Canadian company to ramp up talks with potential new partners for the huge development. The move had been anticipated for several months. Shell Canada had already started discussions with other companies that could take its place in the Muskeg River Development, which would be located in the oil-rich Athabasca oil sands region of northeastern Alberta. Australian resource conglomerate BHP confirmed on Wednesday it would not participate in Calgary-based Shell Canada's $3.4-billion Alberta oil sands mining, bitumen extraction and synthetic crude operation after the current feasibility study. BHP, which signed on to the project in 1997, is paying 25 per cent of the costs in a $100-million feasibility study. It had been reviewing its slate of international assets under Paul Anderson, its new chief executive and managing director. Shell said it is in discussions with "a large handful" of potential partners, but declined to identify them.

Also Canadian Occidental Petroleum Ltd (CXY)
The Globe and Mail reports in its Friday edition that Shell Canada Inc. is quietly shedding its conventional oil assets, putting up for sale properties that produce 15,000 barrels of crude a day. Analysts estimate the sale of this business unit - which includes a natural gas plant with 40 million cubic feet of daily sales -- is worth approximately $400-million. The Calgary-based company, which operates at arm's length from Anglo-Dutch giant Royal Dutch/Shell Group, informed employees and analysts last week but did not put out a press release. Shell said it decided to shed its conventional assets after ranking its priorities, including East Coast gas developments such as the massive Sable Offshore Energy Project, oil sands mining and the Alberta Foothills region sour gas business. Analysts say possible buyers for the assets, which are all over 75 per cent oil, could include Canadian Occidental Petroleum Ltd. and Talisman Energy Inc., both of Calgary. Oil properties might be expected to fetch more these days given crude prices have risen 40 per cent since early March.

Strange that we see Ballard mentioned, Daimler-Chrysler mentioned- the POINT is IS that MAJOR INTEREST FROM MAJOR COMPANIES say that a DIMEATECH is worth the DAMBAR INVESTMENT in NUKE and worth the US Dollar INVESTMENT in BHMNF ( see thread under that Symbol at RB) and see BMD:ASE at CSW at top URL or read Diamond Exployer New Blue Ribbon BNL:ASE here at S.I.)
