Eric Hal Schwartz 7/2/09

Ballard Power Systems (NASDAQ: BLDP) and its partner, Bend, OR-based IdaTech announced today that they can now confirm the sale of 310 hydrogen fueled generators to a wireless infrastructure company in India.  Ballard, based in Burnaby, BC, manufactures the FCgen-1300 fuel cell, which will be incorporated into IdaTech’s ElectraGen generators which provide backup power for wireless networks.  ACME Tele Power will use the generators to maintain wireless networks even during power outages, a common problem in India.
