Retrofit Markets

SymPowerco also expects that the retrofit markets for its hybrid power systems will be very large.

Since most electric vehicles would have a two thirds reduction in both battery weight and space requirements after a hybrid power system retrofit, these vehicles would have more than enough available space available in them for the fuel cell and charger. In golf carts that are used frequently, the batteries wear out and are expensive to replace. SymPowerco believes that it will be very cost advantageous to replace these old batteries with new fuel cell technologies and thus extend the life span of these vehicles.
