Full commercialization of fuel cell systems using hydrogen will require advances in hydrogen storage technologies. The FOA includes the following topics: Topic Area 1: Reducing the cost of compressed hydrogen storage systems. A vehicle that achieves a fuel economy of 60 miles per kilogram of hydrogen (i.e.,

DOE recognizes that technology developments can help make vehicles more efficient and alternative fuels more economic, but the deployment of any technologies it helps develop is largely determined by policies, such as Corporate Average Fuel Economy standards. Impartial DOE research can help inform these standards.

Even then the US is unlikely to reach a 50% reduction in petroleum use by 2030 because very little time remains for achieving the required massive changes in the on-road LDV fleet and/or its fuel supply. Many of the vehicles on the road in 2030 will have been built by 2015, and these will lower the fuel economy of the on-road fleet.

The low-temperature ethanol-reforming pathway, catalyzed by copper-nickel powder catalysts, transforms ethanol into a mixture of H 2 , CO, and CH 4 at temperatures between 300 and 350 °C. High-temperature reformers need to burn a portion of the fuel to maintain their reforming temperatures, thereby generating a fuel-economy penalty.

Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have demonstrated a production method they estimate will reduce the cost of carbon fiber as much as 50% and the energy used in its production by more than 60%. ORNL will accept license applications for this low-cost carbon fiber process through May 15.
