Fuel Cells for Power Generation -- UPDATED 2008 EDITION!
The US Fuel Cell Council has completely revised this reader-friendly brochure with up-to-date information on some of the most prominent fuel cell manufacturers in the industry. Member company work is highlighted, with pictures of a wide variety of commercially available and "in the works" fuel cell systems. The brochure reviews fuel cells for stationary applications such as distributed generation, CHP and emergency back up power. Topics such as technological and environmental benefits as well as applicable codes and standards are also covered.
Fuel Cell Fact Sheets
The US Fuel Cell Council has prepared seven fact sheets on: Fuel Cells - The Basics; Fuel Cell Types; Residential Applications for Fuel Cells; Portable Fuel Cell Applications; Fuel Cells for Transportation; Fuel Cells for Wastewater Treatment Plants; Fuel Cells: Stationary Power - Industrial Applications.
**Updated**Commercially Available Fuel Cell Product List*
The US Fuel Cell Council has compiled a comprehensive list of fuel cell products available for purchase. The list, which is continually updated, features more than 40 fuel cell products for micro, portable, stationary and transportation applications features products from manufacturers headquartered in the United States, Canada and Europe.
* The Fuel Cell Product List is now available in both a brief EZ-Read and comprehensive Full-Detail version for your convenience (updated 5.8.09).
Fuel Cell Glossary
The US Fuel Cell Council glossary of fuel cell terms has been used by many organizations as the basis of their own terminology documents.
Fuel Cells and Hydrogen: An Agenda for Action
An Agenda for Action is an application-neutral document that is easy to follow and gives readers a balanced assessment of fuel cell technology. Besides highlighting the positive benefits of adopting fuel cell technology, An Agenda for Action provides state and federal lawmakers with a helpful legislative checklist. It also reinforces the importance of funding activities outlined in the comprehensive Energy Policy Act of 2005, as well as establishing long-term tax incentives.
Fuel Cells and Hydrogen: The Path Forward
This document was developed to provide a baseline of information for policy makers,
companies and others interested in advancing the commercialization of fuel cells;
to underscore the need for a coherent, multi=year commitment by the public
sector; give specific policy initiatives an overall programmatic context; and
to stimulate discussion, debate and, ultimately, enactment of a
comprehensive fuel cell policy.
Fuel Cells For Mobility
The US Fuel Cell Council has prepared an extensive review of fuel cell
vehicles and their use. Member company work is highlighted, with
pictures of a wide variety of past and present fuel cell demonstration
vehicles included. The background information can form the basis
of a strategic policy position, while the charts can be used to measure
and document the progress of fuel cell vehicles worldwide.
Fuel Cells For Military
Fuel cells are a versatile technology that can provide electricity for a variety of applications - from communications equipment and computers to battery replacement and vehicles. Clean, quiet and efficient, fuel cells can be utilized for a host of military applications.
Propane Fuel Cell Business Case Summary
The US Fuel Cell Council, in cooperation with the Breakthrough Technologies Institute and with the Propane Education and Research Council funding, has prepared this summary of The Propane Fuel Cell Business Case delivered to the Propane Industry in November of 2002 in Palm Springs.
