Neah Power Systems provides a summary of their fuel cell technology and business. Their silicon-based direct methanol fuel cell technology offers higher power density, longer runtime, and lighter weight compared to lithium-ion batteries. They have successful prototypes, strategic partnerships, and government funding that position them for commercialization in the portable power markets of defense, consumer products, and industrial users. Their business model leverages silicon manufacturing infrastructure to produce low-cost fuel cells for recurring revenue from fuel cartridge sales.

4. Fuel cells vs. batteries
What are fuel cells
• Direct conversion of fuel into electricity
• Electrochemical catalyzed reactions
Fuel + oxidant electricity
• Fuel once consumed, needs to be replaced
What are batteries
• Two types – primary and secondary
• Primary – single use then discard
• Secondary – rechargeable
Recharging – electric current to convert spent chemicals

5. Battery Technology Challenges
Demand for longer runtime
Lithium-ion batteries
• Heavy
• Safety concerns
• Inefficient performance
Power gap, demand vs. available energy
• Power hungry features
• Increased use in mobile environments
• Limited battery technology
