Fueling the Future: Ford, BP Pursuing Bio-Fuel Solutions

By: Kristopher Spencer | Ford Communications Network



DEARBORN, Feb. 21, 2007 - Ford Motor Company is stepping up its research and development of advanced and alternative powertrain systems to explore several alternative fuel solutions.
At the Washington Auto Show last month, Ford unveiled some of its alternative powertrain solutions, including a plug-in hybrid Edge, powered by the company's industry-first HySeriesTM that combines a hydrogen fuel cell with a hybrid-electric propulsion system.

In 2006, BP and DuPont created a partnership to develop, produce and market a next generation of bio-fuels to help meet increasing global demand for renewable transportation fuels. Ford Motor Company, which works closely with BP on alternative fuel and powertrain solutions, praised the development.

"We welcome this initiative and we are optimistic it will add significantly to the range of bio-fuel technologies available," said Richard Parry Jones, Ford chief technical officer. "BP's and DuPont's action is entirely consistent with our own aspiration to develop sustainable mobility solutions. We are excited at the prospect of furthering our work with BP in this area."
