DOE Extends Request for Information Deadline: Requirements for Fuel Storage Subsystems for Early Market Fuel Cell Applications
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) extended the deadline of the Requirements for Fuel Storage Subsystems for Early Market Fuel Cell Applications Request for Information (RFI) to January 15, 2010.
On October 30, 2009, DOE issued the RFI to seek input from prospective fuel cell system users, fuel cell component and system suppliers, and other stakeholders on performance and cost requirements for fuel storage subsystems for near-term, early market fuel cell applications (e.g., for mobile applications such as forklifts, stationary back-up power, and portable power).
This RFI is intended to be “fuel neutral” with a focus on defining the fuel storage needs and requirements for early market fuel cell applications to facilitate successful market transformation in a competitive environment. This information will be used by DOE in a preliminary assessment and ultimate determination of the storage system performance requirements.
To respond to this RFI, read the Request for Information (PDF 133 KB), respond to the four questions/issues on page four, and send an e-mail to StorageTargets2009@ee.doe.gov with the responses attached using Microsoft Word (.doc) format by January 15, 2010.
