Project Description
| Type of Project: |
Analysis |
| Category: |
Hydrogen Fuel Pathways |
| Objectives: |
Evaluate alternative pathways for producing and distributing hydrogen; Identify viable transition strategies toward widespread use of hydrogen |
| Inputs: |
- Description: Geographic Information System (GIS) data; demand scenarios; regional conditions; cost and performance of hydrogen production, storage, distribution, and refueling systems as a function of scale; cost and performance of hydrogen vehicles and infrastructure; size and geographic density of demand, idealized model of a city; fraction of hydrogen vehicles in fleet, station size and coverage, rural v. urban
|
