hydrogen fuel cells
Laboratories have teamed up to support a DOE initiative through the creation of the Electrocatalysis Consortium (ElectroCat).
Team aims to make the process more efficient and less expensive

New projects for hydrogen storage and fuel cell performance aim to bring down cost of fuel cell electric vehicles
A team of Virginia Tech researchers discovered a way to create hydrogen fuel using a biological method that greatly reduces the time and money it takes to produce the zero-emissions fuel. This method uses abundantly available corn stover – the stalks, cobs, and husks – to produce the hydrogen.
Large-scale storage of low-pressure, gaseous hydrogen in salt caverns and other underground sites for transportation fuel and grid-scale energy applications offers several advantages over above-ground storage, says a recent Sandia National Laboratories study sponsored by the Department of Energy’s Fuel Cell Technologies Office.
Deployment project builds on earlier study’s optimistic results.
