Since 2002, Webasto has focused heavily on automotive on-board power
systems known as Auxiliary Power Units (APUs), in which electrical energy is
produced from liquid fuels with the aid of a high -temperature fuel cell. This technology also has mobile
applications.

"PF2 is the next generation of micro-channel heat exchangers for
refrigeration and air conditioning systems and can be used as either a
condenser or an evaporator," said Craig Grohman, Modine Program
Manager for Commercial HVAC+R. Modine employs more than 8,500 people worldwide
at 35 facilities, including 18 in the United States.

Through advances with APUs, Webasto created a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell module
(SOFC) which, fuelled by natural gas or heating oil, can be used for single-
family home energy generation and heat supply. It is a computerized system sizing program
that will design systems around PF2 or other types of heat exchangers.

Given the challenges
being faced in terms of environmental protection and rising energy prices, the
market for decentralized heating systems combined with power generation will
grow. Fuel cells are seen as a highly promising, environmentally friendly
technology of the future -- for applications in both automotive as well as
home energy supply.

Vaillant has worked on the development of fuel cell-powered heating
systems for multi-family houses and light industrial applications since 1998
and has already gathered a wealth of practical experience in the testing of
prototypes in European field trials.
"We specially designed this heat exchanger for the HVAC+R market, it
addresses the need for lower per piece prices and it will reduce or
eliminate any model specific tooling costs," added Grohman.
