I found an article by Autocar which claims "In 1899 The Pope Manufacturing Company merged with two smaller companies to form the Electric Vehicle Company. Two hybrids appeared at the Paris Salon that year. At the turn of the 20th century, Belgian car maker Pieper introduced a 3.5bhp hybrid car.So it's possible his was one of the 2 smaller companies or perhaps he was the design engineer at Pieper - similar name to Piedboeuf and also Belgium ?The cars and engines do sound very interesting, including a 4 cyl 32 valve engine according to the Impéria Automobiles wiki page.
