Hydrogen Manufacturing R&D Workshop

The U.S. Department of Energy, in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Commerce, sponsored a Manufacturing R&D for the Hydrogen Economy Workshop in Washington, DC, July 13-14, 2005. The workshop brought together key industry, university, and government representatives to develop a roadmap for manufacturing R&D for: (1) hydrogen production and delivery systems, (2) hydrogen storage systems, and (3) fuel cells that convert hydrogen into electric energy. This workshop was conducted with support from the Manufacturing Research and Development Interagency Working Group, chaired by the Department of Commerce Committee on Technology, National Science and Technology Council.

The papers and presentations from the Manufacturing R&D for the Hydrogen Economy workshop are available as Adobe Acrobat PDFs. Download Adobe Reader.
