DOE Theory Focus Session on Hydrogen Storage Materials
The U.S. Department of Energy, through the Office of Science (Basic Energy Sciences) and the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (Hydrogen, Fuel Cells and Infrastructure Technologies) held a Theory Focus Session on Hydrogen Storage Materials on May 18, 2006 in Crystal City, Va., in conjunction with the DOE Hydrogen Program Annual Merit Review. The meeting provided an opportunity for experts in the field to present and discuss the current state-of-the-art, technical progress and key barriers in theory/modeling approaches related to hydrogen storage materials.
