Astris Energi Posts CEO'S 'Fuel Cell 2004' Paper
MISSISSAUGA, Ontario, Aug. 24, 2004 - Astris Energi Inc. (OTC BB: ASRNF), the world's leading alkaline fuel cell (AFC) technology company, announced today that President and CEO Jiri K. Nor's presentation from the Fuel Cell 2004 Conference in Denver, Colorado is now available on the company website at http://www.astris.ca.
Mr. Nor's presentation, entitled "Alkaline Fuel Cell - Technology for the 21st Century'' covered the specific advantages of AFC technology and its future potential. In addition, Mr. Nor focused on the state-of-the-art progress Astris has made in developing a relatively low cost, highly efficient AFC that starts up rapidly, even in sub-zero temperatures. Mr. Nor highlighted Astris' MC250 POWERSTACK(tm) fuel cell which has performed up to 60% above its original design specifications. The MC250's base material costs are less than US$230 per kW, in part due to the elimination of platinum as a catalyst.
In his paper, Mr. Nor noted, "The alkaline fuel cell is an excellent choice now. The convenience of the instant start cannot be matched by the high-temperature fuel cells. At low temperatures and pressures, the AFC outperforms all the competing technologies, including PEM fuel cell technology.''
