VIII.D Research and Development of a PEM Fuel Cell, Hydrogen Reformer, and Vehicle Refueling Facility. Report for the period of October 1, 1999 to June 30, 2006.

DE2007913332

Publication Date	2006
Personal Author	Kiczek, E.; Cassala, V.; Hyde, D.
Page Count	56
Abstract	Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. has teamed with Plug Power, Inc. of Latham, NY, and the City of Las Vegas, NV, to develop, design, procure, install and operate an on-site hydrogen generation system, an alternative vehicle refueling system, and a stationary hydrogen fuel cell power plant, located in Las Vegas. The facility will become the benchmark for validating new natural gas-based hydrogen systems, PEM fuel cell power generation systems, and numerous new technologies for the safe and reliable delivery of hydrogen as a fuel to vehicles. Most important, this facility will serve as a demonstration of hydrogen as a safe and clean energy alternative. Las Vegas provides an excellent real-world performance and durability testing environment.
