Holy Cow!!!, Look what the Cabot Market Letter is promoting!!!!!!,

Pure Power . . . The Hydrogen Fuel Cell
We're always looking for investments that have large mass markets. .
. . .the better to sell more products! And the markets for this
company's new energy source are not just large, they are humongous!
This revolutionary power source targets two mass markets: (1)
automobiles (along with busses) and (2) stationery electric power
plants.
Here are a few startling facts. The only emission from this power
supply is pure water that's clean enough for you to drink! In addition,
it has no moving parts, it needs no lubricating, it is silent, and it does
not operate at high temperatures.
In fact, this power supply is three times more efficient than the
internal combustion engine in the car you are driving today, with
faster acceleration. Imagine that!
12 Years in Development - Now a Reality
We're talking about the hydrogen fuel cell that has been developed by
this company.
Fuel cells, which can run on any hydrogen-rich fuel, have the unique
characteristic of being able to convert fuel energy directly into
electricity without combustion. This firm is the clear leader in the
race for a new source of power.
Low-cost Electricity from Hydrogen
Way back in 1839, Sir William Grove of London invented fuel cells.
Until recently, they have been extremely expensive to produce. . . .
.highly impractical. But improving technologies in many areas now
make the fuel cell a realistic power source.
The company's president and CEO recently said, "It is possible to
lower the cost (of fuel cells) to a tenth of current costs."
Technically, this is how the fuel cell works. The heart of a fuel cell
is a 0.1 mm-thick plastic membrane coated with a platinum catalyst.
Hydrogen is fed to one side of the membrane, air to the other. The
catalyst ionizes the hydrogen. Only the positively charged protons
can migrate through the membrane. The negatively charged electrons
stay behind. As a result, a potential difference builds up between the
anode and the cathode on each side of the membrane. AN
ELECTRIC CURRENT RESULTS!
The fuel cell operates without combustion, without noise, and at
comfortable operating temperatures of 180°F. The hydrogen ions and
the oxygen in the air combine to form water as a byproduct in the
exhaust pipe.
Partnership with DaimlerChrysler and Ford Motor
The worldwide automobile industry is the most obvious potential
user of these fuel cells, especially in light of the current demand for
zero emission engines. In an automobile, the fuel cell powers a
simple electric motor!
Most important is that this company, DaimlerChrysler and Ford have
formed a global alliance to accelerate the development of fuel cell
power components for vehicles.
The firm we recommend will be responsible for fuel cells, with
DaimlerChrysler and Ford holding 20% and 15% of the fuel cell
company, respectively. Jurgen E. Schrempp, the CEO of
DaimlerChrysler, thinks his company might go into serious fuel cell
car production as early as the year 2000.
Test busses and cars are already in operation in Germany and
Canada. In these test vehicles, hydrogen is often derived from
methanol. But a new process that derives hydrogen from gasoline
makes it extremely likely you'll be able to continue using your
regular gas station to refuel your fuel cell vehicle!
Power Generation with GPU and GEC ALSTHOM
The other huge market involves supplying electrical power for
on-site use. Our company has cut a deal with giant utility GPU Inc. of
New Jersey that will result in the delivery of two 250-kilowatt
power plants for field trials.
These small generators will provide enough energy to power a
hospital or an office building and can be placed wherever needed,
eliminating the need for long-distance power lines!
GEC ALSTHOM of France, the world leader in power generation
equipment, will use our company's fuel cells in four plants for field
trails in Europe.
As the story of this company continues to unfold in the years ahead, it
should be an exciting ride for investors!
