Now PSA-Peugeot Citroen. joins BMW, Renault, and GM's spin-off Delphi Automotive in the evolution of Solid Oxide Fuel Cells ... Ford is already working with SECA on a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell project, ... who's next eh ? Friday September 28, 1:00 pm Eastern Time Press Release SOURCE: Delphi Automotive Systems Delphi a Partner in Fuel Cell Research Center in France BELFORT, France, Sept. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- Innovators from Delphi Automotive Systems (NYSE: DPH - news), along with French government officials and representatives from several other companies, took part in a ground-breaking ceremony today for a new fuel cell research center. The French Ministry of Research will oversee this national center for technical research, with the help of corporate partners like Delphi and PSA-Peugeot Citroen. ``This is an outstanding project for Delphi to take part in,'' said Guy C. Hachey, president, Delphi Energy & Chassis Systems. ``As an industry, we need to move quickly in the development and implementation of fuel cells for vehicles and non-automotive applications. Delphi looks at fuel cells as a global project and we welcome the input and involvement of various governments and our original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customers.'' The development of the center is based on a tight collaboration between private companies and public research organizations in the Belfort- Montbeliard-Nancy region of France. The partnership is designed to increase innovation and development in key areas of fuel cell research. Engineers from Delphi's Technical Center Rochester in Henrietta, N.Y. assisted in the planning and designing of the future laboratories in the center. ``Work which will be done in the new laboratory in France will be fully complementary with what we do in our Delphi research and development centers,'' said Dr. Jean Botti, director, Delphi Energy & Chassis Systems Customer Solution Center and divisional director of engineering - Europe. ``This collaboration matches our objective to become a clear leader in the development of fuel cells. ``All of the technical aspects, such as product development, measuring outputs, emission reduction, downsizing and safety will be investigated at this center,'' said Dr. Botti. Earlier this year, Delphi introduced a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC)/auxiliary power unit (APU) development vehicle with BMW, and a co- development agreement with TotalFinaElf to collaborate on the research and testing of fuel cell technologies and fuel reformation.
