Matching Government Needs with Energy Efficient Fuel Cells
The Hydrogen, Fuel Cells & Infrastructure Technologies Program, Federal Energy Management Program, and U.S. Fuel Cell Council hosted a fuel cell meeting on April 26, 2007. This meeting brought together federal facility managers and fuel cell manufacturers to discuss the federal government's early adoption of commercially available fuel cell systems. The group discussed niche markets such as emergency backup power, portable power, and material handling equipment.
Industry representatives presented information on commercially available products. Federal representatives presented information on their energy needs and plans for the early adoption of hydrogen and fuel cell technologies.
