IdaTech plc 
 
 
(the "Company" or "IdaTech") 
 
 
 
 
IdaTech's German Partner, b+w Electronic Systems, 
Supplies Fuel Cell Systems to United States Army 
 
 
IdaTech plc (AIM: IDA.L), a global leader in the development and manufacture of 
clean and reliable extended run backup power fuel cell products for 
telecommunications applications today announces that its German OEM partner, b+w 
Electronic Systems GmbH & Co. KG ("b+w"), has successfully delivered 22 IdaTech 
ElectraGenTM fuel cell systems to the United States Army in support of the 
Infrastructure Modernization (IMOD) program. The IMOD program supports the 
upgrade and modernisation of enterprise enabled voice and data networks 
worldwide for the United States Army. 
 
 
The first ten ElectraGenTM systems were successfully installed on 14 September 
2009 in Grafenwoehr, Germany and the additional 12 systems have been scheduled 
for deployment to US military sites throughout Germany before the end of 2009. 
 
 
Telecommunications networks, including military networks, require reliable 
backup power solutions which can operate for several hours or days when 
electricity is no longer available from the grid due to severe weather, natural 
disasters, or poor grid quality. IdaTech's ElectraGen(TM) fuel cell system was 
developed specifically to provide critical backup power to the telecom market 
when loss of grid occurs. ElectraGen(TM) products can be powered by hydrogen gas 
or by IdaTech's proprietary fuel reformer system which converts liquid fuel into 
high-purity hydrogen onsite as needed. The ElectraGen(TM) provides 24 or 48 VDC 
backup power for telecommunications applications and is a replacement for 
traditional solutions such as batteries and diesel generators, but with greater 
reliability and significantly reduced maintenance. 
 
 
Commenting on the delivery, Hal Koyama, Chief Executive Officer of IdaTech, 
said: "The 22 unit installation is the largest fuel cell installation by b+w in 
Germany. This is an exciting milestone for IdaTech and demonstrates our growth 
in the German fuel cell market."
