SymPowerco believes that the entry to market of 50W to 500W FEDMFC in Hybrid Power Systems with service runs of greater than 2000 hours would be disruptive to current portable and mobile power supply markets. The FEDMFC could allow small electric vehicles to operate, for the first time, with convenience and economics comparable to vehicles powered by internal combustion engines, but in a far more environmentally benign manner.
The specific markets to be targeted by SymPowerco in the designs of its products include:
