Ceres Secures UK Facility for Volume Manufacturing of Fuel Cells

Ceres reports that the company has secured a Mother Plant facility for the volume manufacturing of its fuel cells in Horsham, South East England.  The 50,000 sq. ft. (5,000 m2) building has been secured on a long leasehold and is located within 10 miles of Ceres Power‘s headquarters. Ceres has said it will use the new facility to mass manufacture fuel cells and for volume assembly of fuel cell stacks and fuel cell modules, using the scalable processes and machines developed and trialled at the Group’s existing pilot plant in Crawley. Ceres plans to begin low volume beta unit production in 2009 and into 2010 for sheltered field trials under its contract with British Gas. During 2010 additional equipment will be installed to deliver the higher volumes required for commercial field trials and in preparation for volume launch with British Gas in 2011. The company says that the site is intended to provide the potential for expansion beyond the previously indicated one million fuel cells per annum.
