The Forum’s speakers are specifically invited to present at the event which “unites emerging clean energy technology companies from across the country with our nation’s leading clean energy investors. Three days of networking and company ‘business case’ presentations will promote and enhance the success of new ventures, emerging businesses, and the growth of entrepreneurship in the clean energy sector.”

It is the second such presentation for Law and Franklin in just the past week. On October 18th he made a presentation at the Dow Jones Venture Wire “Emerging Ventures” Conference in San Jose, CA.

Law said the invitations to speak at both events “demonstrates the excellent, viable  near-term commercialization prospects for Franklin’s unique technology.” The company’s patented, proprietary Copper-Ceria anode technology has both a high sulfur tolerance and does not “carbon-foul” when exposed to hydrocarbon fuels, thereby creating Franklin’s unique DOSOFC (Direct-Oxidation SOFC) technology that allows the fuels to be fed directly into the anode without the need for either reformers or de-sulfurizers. The result, according to Franklin,  can be a system with lower capital costs and maintenance, simpler system design, “significantly higher efficiency than any other fuel-cell technology, and double that of the internal-combustion engine.”

Additionally, Franklin recently reported that it had successfully tested and demonstrated its technology on 16 different hydrocarbon fuels  “virtually every current, commercially-available liquid and gaseous hydrocarbon fuel.”

Law concluded, “The ability to offer a single fuel-cell technology that can provide a common platform to transition from any of our fuels of today to the new fuels of tomorrow, enables this technology to get to larger markets sooner than other fuel-cell technologies.”
