LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Ceramic Fuel Cells Ltd said it will collaborate with E.ON UK to develop and deploy a prototype fuel cell combined heat and power unit in the UK. No financial details were disclosed.During the collaboration, CFCL will supply a NetGen+ unit and a specially designed thermal store to produce an 'Alpha' prototype which will subsequently be deployed in a field trial. The current project schedule is for the NetGen+ unit to be delivered by December and the Alpha unit to be developed in the second quarter of 2008.The partners have agreed to discuss further co-operation in the subsequent development and deployment of 'Beta' CHP units.E.ON will contribute to product development costs and retains a first option to purchase future CFCL micro CHP units for the British market. The agreement complements E.ON's existing activities in the field of micro CHP and brings Ceramic Fuel Cells close to achieving its partnering objectives in Europe.The units will be able to power a wide range of UK homes and help to reduce carbon emissions in the UK, the company said, adding that it plans to announce an appliance partner responsible for manufacturing the units in due course.TFN.newsdesk@thomson.comran/bsdCOPYRIGHTCopyright AFX News Limited 2007.
