Objectives This project aims to engage both Tier 1 suppliers and vehicle manufacturers in the fuel cell system development process such that significant progress can be made towards meeting the cost and performance goals necessary for the commercialisation of the technology in road vehicles. Intelligent Energy will develop PEM automotive fuel cell engines in the power range of 10kW and 50kW which will be evaluated and incorporated into on-road and off-road vehicles by PSA Peugeot Citroen and John Deere.Robert Bosch will also assess their performance for APU applications. Prodrive will develop the fuel cell engine management systems tailored for this application and Bosch will supply automotive sensor technology. PSA Peugeot Citroen will play a leading role in setting development targets and addressing the vehicle integration issues. Total project cost = 6421000, DTI grant = 338146. Overseas partners = PSA Peugeot Citroen, Robert Bosch, John Deere
