| STOCKHOLM,
Sweden-- Morphic Technologies (STO:MORPB):AccaGen, the Swiss energy
technology company recently acquired by Morphic, has received an order
for a 250 kW electrolyzer from India's largest iron ore producer, National
Mineral Development Company of India, NMDC. The order is worth EUR 350,000
and delivery will take place in August 2008.
The 250 kW facility could lead
to a follow-up order for a six times larger electrolyzer for a planned
production plant. AccaGen was established in 2003 and has since achieved
a leading position in technology for the storing energy from renewable
energy sources such as solar, wind and wave power and biogas. The company's
core offer consists of a range of patented high-efficiency electrolyzers
for separating water into hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen can then be
used to fuel Morphic's fuel-cell-powered system and other energy systems.
In recent years AccaGen has been
focusing on developing the electrolyzer into a standardized product adapted
for major industrial and energy-related customers. AccaGen's major global
returning customers include Linde, ESCOM (the state-owned South African
energy company) and PDVSA (a state-owned oil company in Venezuela). In
December 2007 AccaGen was acquired by Morphic Technologies AB's subsidiary,
MBD AB.
