>The only difference is the number and size of the PEm Fuel Cells. The article mentions "ERC will manufacture and sell direct carbonate fuel cell (DFC) power plants," not Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFC) -- which are of current interest for use in vehicles. The agreement is for a different technology -- and the two technlogies have different advantages and disadvantages depending on the application.

from interactive.wsj.com Honda To Develop Fuel-Cell Electric Vehicle By 2003 TOKYO (Nikkei)--Honda Motor Co. (HMC or 7267) plans to develop a fuel-cell electric vehicle by 2003, company President Hiroyuki Yoshino announced in Nagoya on Monday. The news was reported by the Nihon Keizai Shimbun in its Tuesday morning edition. Honda Motor follows Toyota Motor Corp. (TOYOY or 7203), which has already set 2003 as its goal for development of this low-pollution type of vehicle. Competition is heating up in the industry, with firms such as Daimler-Benz AG (DAI) and Ford Motor Co. (F) also working toward an early 21st-century goal.

from calstart.com 07/23/98 - Toyota - May Not Have Fuel-Cell Car by 2003? Nagoya, Japan - After earlier saying the company would bring a fuel cell-powered car to market by 2003, Toyota President Hiroshi Okuda said this week that it appears unlikely, reports Kyodo News International. "It will likely be difficult to sell (fuel-cell cars) by 2003," he reportedly said. No further details were given by the Japanese publication. Nearly two years ago, Toyota unveiled a fuel-cell powered RAV4 prototype at an international electric-vehicle conference in Japan. After Daimler-Benz AG publicly announced it intended to offer fuel-cell cars by 2004, Toyota responded with its year-2003 plan.
