Energy Conversion Devices Reports on Hydrogen Stored in a Solid For Fuel Cells:
The Auto Industry's Game Changer

TROY,  Mich., Sep 13, 2000 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ --  Robert C. Stempel,
chairman of Energy Conversion Devices, Inc. (ECD) (Nasdaq: ENER), has witnessed
his share of advanced automotive technology. During 34 years with General
Motors, including two years as chairman and CEO of the world's largest
corporation, Stempel personally fostered major advancements in pollution
control, front- wheel drive, electronic engine controls, occupant-safety
systems, and electric propulsion. So when Stempel heralds ECD's latest
advancements in energy storage as a "game changer," it's clear that he's touting
something more profound than the latest spill-proof cupholder.

Propulsion experts agree that cars in the near future will be
electrically-driven and fuel cell powered to satisfy the need for
environmentally-responsible transportation. A consensus is also forming -- in
both automobile industry and energy supply sectors -- that hydrogen will be the
ultimate fuel of the 21st century. Enter ECD's game-changer. "It's our intention
to lead the way to a hydrogen economy," said Stempel, "ECD's metal- hydride
storage systems offer a cost-effective, safe and efficient means of transporting
the energy necessary for vehicles of the future."

ECD's latest strides in metal-hydride technology build on pioneering work begun
in the 1960's by the company's co-founders, Stanford R. and Dr. Iris M.
Ovshinsky. During four decades of research, ECD has earned 350 U.S. and 800
foreign patents covering disordered and amorphous materials, their product
