 PROFILE
Ballard Power Systems envisions gas-guzzlers going the way of the Edsel. The firm makes emission-free proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells and fuel cell systems designed to be quiet, efficient alternatives to internal combustion engines. The stacked, thin, floor-tile-sized cells generate electricity by combining hydrogen fuel (natural gas, methanol, or petroleum) with oxygen, leaving only water and heat as by-products. Ballard also applies its technologies in buses, in stationary fuel cell power plants, and in portable applications for emergency and recreational use. The US, Japan, and Germany account for 92% of Ballard's fuel cell sales. DaimlerChrysler and Ford own 18% and 14% of Ballard, respectively.
