Intelligent Energy has resulted in agreement with an emerging smartphone OEM to create a tailored development and integration programme for a specific smartphone application. It is intended that the programme will build on Intelligent Energy's existing prototype smartphone with an embedded fuel cell and may, in time, result in the licensing of Intelligent Energy's technology. In the short-term, once the programme is agreed, Intelligent Energy would generate revenue from delivery of the programme.

With smartphones using an ever increasing amount of power as they become more sophisticated, consumers are becoming increasingly frustrated with the current limitations of battery life. Embedding a fuel cell into the phone, using hydrogen to power it, means consumers can have off grid power for their phones when and where they want. Intelligent Energy's solution retains the smartphone's existing technology including its battery.
