Workshop on Hydrogen Storage and Generation for Medium-Power and -Energy Applications
Abstract
This report summarizes the Workshop on Hydrogen Storage and Generation Technologies for Medium-Power and -Energy Applications which was held on April 8-10, 1997 at the Radisson Hotel Orlando Airport in Orlando, Florida. There were 70 participants, representing private industry, national laboratories, the Department of Defense, and academia. The Workshop was sponsored by the U.S. Army Research Office and by the Office of Research and Development of the Central Intelligence Agency. The objective of this workshop was to review and summarize what is known or under development concerning hydrogen storage and generation technologies that are potentially applicable for use in small- to medium-sized PEM fuel cell systems. The Workshop participants were instructed to consider three specific fuel cell power systems: a 300 watt (W) fuel cell with 10 kWh energy storage, a 100 W person-portable fuel cell with a minimum of 1 kWh energy storage, and a 10 W fuel cell with 90 kWh energy storage. These three power systems were suggested by the Workshop sponsors because of anticipated future military and defense applications. In addition, power supplies of this size may also have significant applications in the commercial sector.
