I would like to bring a lawsuit against fraudulent directors and join the LSE in the proceedings. Bet I win and get a complimentary bear raid on a puffed up financial services business

Edit...That should have been perpetual motor...the company is Steorn

NB....Noticed ITM been on a roller coaster ride lately, recovering now.

You are right it is easy to be fooled by technology experts. However, most of the time its due to the company not being honest with their shareholders in the first place, to understand technology you need an in depth knowledge or explanation not only of the technology but also the problems that still need to be resolved, most investors understand that R&D will take time, not forever thou.

Company time frames are always over optimistic which personally cons investors out their money. AIM as always a total disgrace.

Just to give you an idea I was checking out a company that says its developed the perpetual battery, hard to believe right, Its an Irish company worth a google.

Itr is easiest thing to get fooled by technology; Peter Hargreaves chairman of ITM at the time, had a nessianic moment seeing the light under the bushel, Bond has yo get through the school of hard knocks yet

Considering this technology was proved over 100 years ago, AFC either do not have the personnel or the brains to turn their FC design into a cost effective energy source. Maybe it only works in Space, has anybody seen it working on the open days Hmm, probably not.

The company seems to be just producing hot air, I don't believe anything they say now, it is quite obvious they still have design issues with reliability, energy output, hydrogen quality, not to mention finance issues, you name it they've got it.

RTW....If you think they will meet March deadline think again my friend they have not met any deadlines yet, it will be 2 years this summer since they achieved 12 month longevity makes you wonder why they couldn't get a product to market since then, still at least you will be able pick these up for 5p then, I hoped to be proved wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AFC could overtake Fuel Cell Energy and Ballard. Nice cheap technology approach, strict cost controls, and partners like Akzo Nobel, Dow Chemicals, Westinghouse, Linc Energy, etc. will all benefit the bottom line.

Even better if they can be $540 to $780m before profit. Think what they could be after profit. Think what AFC could be. Its happening. AFC 'KORE' goes commercial this year. LOL.

NT...Not sure any of those US FC companies have ever made a profit, they tend to rely totally on subsides, somebodies getting rich out of the US tax payer.

America's large commercial fuel cell producers (2014):

Plug Power Inc. (PLUG) (market cap: $780M USD)
FuelCell Energy Inc. (FCEL) (market cap: $611M USD)
Ballard Power Systems Inc (BLDP) (market cap: $540M USD)
Hydrogenics Corp. (HYGS) (market cap: $173M USD)

If AFC have a competitive product they could be heading for a market capitalisation larger than some of the companies mentioned above or become a takeover target.

It is finally happening whether you like it or not.

All being well AFC's KORE system will connect to the German power grid in Q4 2015 for the purposes of exporting electricity and generating revenues, and be running at full power (240 kW) in Dec 2015.

Norbus read AFC's website:

hxxp://www.afcenergy.com/partners/akzonobel.aspx

AFC have been testing their fuel cells in an industrial setting with Akzo Nobel in Germany for some time. They currently have 2 Beta+ systems installed there:

"Primarily for electrode and cartridge development, the systems have been in almost continuous use over the last year. Factors such as power output, longevity, system cycling and maintenance techniques have all been tested."

See also follow-on news on 10/12/14 and 16/1/15 regarding progress on the Power-Up programme which is the final leg to commercialisation this year.

The press release in December 2014 for the 25 fuel cell stack said they could now "freeze the electrode design and chemistry for the KORE system commissioning planned for mid-2015."

[new tech] 09/2/2015 10:51

The 102 fuel cell strack test result next month could be pivotal.

This might be the reason, what amazes me is the time line has been brought forward 18 months what the soding hell were they going to be doing in the those 18 months other than coasting along on shareholders money until it ran out again, the world of academia is on another planet.!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
