Automotive Fuel Cell Cooperation

Established in 2008, AFCC Automotive Fuel Cell Cooperation Corp. (“AFCC”) is a Burnaby, B.C. based joint venture of Daimler AG and Ford Motor Company developing fuel cell modules for automotive applications.

Today, AFCC is a joint-venture among Daimler and Ford Motor Company. AFCC also works closely with fuel cell systems developer NuCellSys GmbH and Daimler’s fuel cell stack manufacturing group at Mercedes-Benz Fuel Cells, co-located with AFCC in Burnaby, BC.

As the birthplace of the automotive fuel cell, British Columbia is the natural home for AFCC due to the large concentration of fuel cell experts in the area and the province’s commitment to fuel cell research and innovation.
