The stack development will include preliminary proof-of-concept efforts to comprise sealing, bonding, electrical conductivity, internal humidification, cycling and polarization testing. This will be followed by a fabrication effort that will produce a stack configuration consisting of two complementary 5-6 cell stack halves with an internal humidification section. The stack will be integrated into a fuel-cell/battery hybrid system by H. Power, and this system will be tested and demonstrated within nine months from the start of this effort. If the stack to be developed as described herein is deemed to be premature for incorporation into the system in accordance with this schedule, H.
