Planning and Reporting Documents
Planning Documents
DOE’s hydrogen and fuel cell activities are documented at a high level in the Hydrogen Posture Plan (PDF 2.46MB), which also includes U.S. Department of Transportation activities. (This document was published in 2006; an updated version, the Fuel Cell Program Plan, will be released in 2010.) Detailed discussions of the barriers as well as current and planned RD&D activities can be found in the hydrogen R&D plans of the individual DOE offices, as follows:
- Office of Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy (EERE): HFCIT Multi-Year RD&D Plan
- Office of Nuclear Energy (NE): Nuclear Hydrogen R&D Plan (PDF 1.81MB)
- Office of Fossil Energy (FE): Hydrogen from Coal RD&D Plan (PDF 1.45MB)
- Office of Science (SC): Basic Research Needs for the Hydrogen Economy (PDF 7.24MB)
