US DOE Issues Request for Information on Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Market Development; Reports to Congress on Program

Green Car Congress

Hydrogen produced by water electrolysis has the potential to be a useful means of storing excess electricity generated using wind, solar, and other intermittent renewable energy. Biogas, including anaerobic digester gas, can be reformed to produce hydrogen and used in a fuel cell to produce significant amounts of electricity and heat.
