H Power Corp NEW YORK, Sept. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- Deutsche Banc Alex.
Brown analyst Ed Tirello today initiated coverage of H Power Corp. (Nasdaq: HPOW)(20.38) with a STRONG BUY investment rating on the shares. H Power is a leader in developing Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell systems for stationary, affordable and mobile applications.
Tirello estimates that the residential market for fuel cells will reach 7 billion in 2007 and 30 billion in 2017. He believes H Power is uniquely positioned to benefit from the trends in the industry, especially given its exclusive partnership with Energy Co-Opportunity to market fuel cell systems to 14 million remote, rural, residential homes. "Besides residential fuel cell systems, we think the company is two years ahead of its competitors in developing fuel cells to replace batteries for computers, cell phones and cameras, which are potentially huge markets," adds Tirello. "We also predict that H Power will be one of the very first fuel cell system technology companies to turn a profit."
Energy Conversion Devices, Inc. (Nasdaq: ENER), based in Troy, Mich.

TROY, Mich., May 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Energy Conversion Devices, Inc. ("ECD") (Nasdaq: ENER) announced today that Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries developed by its subsidiary, Ovonic Battery Company, Inc. ("Ovonic Battery"), powered several electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) to victory at the Northeast Sustainable Energy Association's American Tour de Sol competition conducted from May 12 to May 19, 2000.
A production General Motors EV1, equipped with NiMH batteries produced by GM Ovonic L.L.C., the joint manufacturing venture between GM and Ovonic Battery, achieved a range of 225 miles on a single charge. For the seventh consecutive year, a vehicle powered with Ovonic NiMH batteries exceeded the 200-mile range on a single charge -- the first time this has been achieved with a production-specific design vehicle. The EV1 was the overall winner in the EV category.
To introduce future vehicle engineers and designers to advanced vehicle technologies using alternate and renewable energy sources, the Tour de Sol competition includes students from high schools and colleges. Two teams using Ovonic NiMH batteries achieved impressive results. The New Hampshire Technological Institute had the fastest acceleration time of any electric vehicle entered in the competition. An HEV designed and built by students at Lawrence Technological University, Southfield, Michigan, achieved a range of 318 miles for first place in the range category.
