Ceres' system integration programme enters key second phase with Dunlop 
Aerospace 
 
Ceres, the AIM-quoted fuel cell company, is pleased to announce the second key 
phase of its system integration programme in participation with Dunlop Aerospace 
and other global component suppliers. 
 
The £1 million programme will help Ceres move from its initial prototype system 
to a cost effective product tailored for its target mass markets in stationary 
power generation.  Significant financial support and in-kind contributions have 
been secured from the Department of Trade & Industry (DTI) and commercial 
collaborators. 
 
Chief Executive Peter Bance said: "Now that we have demonstrated world-class 
performance from our fuel cells, a priority for 2005 is establishing a supply 
chain for all the other components for our products ahead of market roll-out. 
We are delighted that Dunlop has agreed to become an important partner at this 
stage in our development." 
 
Ceres has established early commercial relationships with several leading energy 
and engineering groups interested in the potential of its fuel cell. They 
include the global industrial gases giant BOC, which is in partnership trials 
with Ceres using bottled gas to generate electricity from the Ceres fuel cell. 
 
The fuel cells are being developed for applications as diverse as home boilers 
and stand alone generators to be branded "Powered by Ceres". They are expected 
to offer substantial economic and environmental benefits to users around the 
globe. 
 
The Ceres fuel cells have already undergone rigorous testing prior to the 
prototype programme now underway, and have been developed for commercial 
manufacture using low cost components and mass production techniques. 
 
Ceres has been described by Prime Minister Tony Blair as a "world leader", while 
Energy Minister Mike O'Brien said the company is "at the forefront of the race 
to make fuel cells a commercially viable technology."
