Title: Hydrogen systems analysis, education, and outreach. Annual report, August 1996--September 1997

Abstract

The set of activities performed by SENTECH, Inc. addressed the specific recommendations provided to the Department of Energy (DOE) by its advisors, including the Hydrogen Technical Advisory Panel and the review panel members of the DOE Annual Hydrogen Program Review. SENTECH`s efforts were conducted under five tasks: Task 1: Technology and Process Analysis; Task 2: Hydrogen Information Development and Transfer; Task 3: Educational Products; Task 4: Systems Analysis; and Task 5: Life Cycle Costs. SENTECH activities were executed in two broad areas--analysis and technology transfer. The analytical tasks undertaken in FY97 were focused on two types of analysis--systems analysis and technical/economic assessments. These analytical activities benefit DOE by providing data that allow it to define the strategic goals of the hydrogen R and D program. By collecting analysis of the energy efficiency, environmental externality, and economic competitiveness factors of hydrogen energy systems, DOE is able to determine the potential impacts of these systems. The technical/economic assessments and process analyses looked at component technologies and their relative merits in different hydrogen energy system configurations. Together these analyses provide important information on factors affecting program direction. The technologies reported on within are hydrogen storage in carbon materials, hydrogen production methods, and electricmore » utility applications of hydrogen energy storage systems.« less
