Re: Shell and Arie DeGeus
Thanks Mark Goldes for making mention of the connection with DeGeus and Shell. As I recall the news article , Shell emphasized the point that Shell was spending their research money on hydrogen. Looking at the background of Shell's new US head, I see he has worked with the "right" people .. like GE etc. Why do I get the feeling the winners have already been decided before the game is played grin Richard Blank Bkgrd.gif
Re: Shell and Arie DeGeus
Shell has spent some time visiting DeGeus who would appear to be BLPs chief, and perhaps only, competitor. His namesake headed Shell for some years, and Arie has a second home in the Netherlands. Their is a family connection. The DeGeus fractional hydrogen system uses a proprietary metal alloy as fuel. When we visited him a few years ago Shell straddled our visit. They decided not to support his work at that time, but it could have simply been too early. He believed they would become a logical Strategic Partner for his work. Perhaps they have.

Perhaps GM and Ford understand this better than Toyota.
