VIASPACE is well positioned with its many technology patents from Caltech. The company is a key player in the very promising methanol fuel cell market, as they are one of the few qualified sources of methanol fuel cartridges targeting the large direct methanol fuel-cell focused OEMs.
Methanol has a higher energy density then hydrogen, and as a result it can store a greater amount of energy in a tighter space. Hydrogen cannot be fed directly into the fuel cell which consequently requires complicated catalytic reforming. Since methanol does not have this disadvantage, it is easier to manage and doesn’t demand to be stored at high pressures and low temperatures.
Investors are taking notice of methanol fuel cell technology because of the technical advantages. VIASPACE is looking strong for future growth as it continues to secure intellectual rights.
