Progress in Hydrogen and Fuel Cells - Energy
PROGRESS IN
Hydrogen and Fuel Cells
The Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technologies Office (HFTO) focuses on research & development (R&D) and demonstration activities to advance hydrogen and fuel cell technologies for transportation and diverse applications that contribute to U.S. energy independence, security and resiliency, and add to a strong domestic economy. HFTO's funding has enabled significant progress:
HFTO funding enabled the introduction of the world's first hydrogen fuel cell cars. There are more than 8,600
hydrogen fuel cell cars on U.S. road as of June 2020.
Reducing Cost and Improving Durability and Performance of Fuel Cells
Reduced high volume automotive fuel cell costs by 60% since 2006. Cost reductions reflect numerous R&D advances, including a 5x reduction in the platinum content of fuel cell catalysts and the development of durable membrane electrode assemblies. Modeled cost is $50/kW when produced at 100,000 units per year.
Quadrupled fuel cell durability since 2006. Demonstrated more than 4,100 hour (120,000 miles) durability of fuel cell systems in vehicles operating under real-world conditions with only 10% degradation.
Advancing Technologies for Producing, Delivering, and Storing Hydrogen
Reduced the cost of dispensed hydrogen. Projected costs of hydrogen production, delivery and dispensing for 700 bar fueling (assuming high volume production and widespread deployment) have been reduced to ~$5-7/gge, making it nearly cost competitive with gasoline.
Reduced the cost of producing hydrogen from renewables. R&D advancements have reduced the cost of electrolyzers by 80% since 2002.
Accelerated hydrogen production R&D. Achieved world records in direct photoelectrochemical hydrogen production and screened more than 1,000 materials for thermochemical hydrogen production.
Launched H2FIRST and developed the world's first HyStEP Device. Through the Hydrogen Fueling Infrastructure Research and Station Technology (H2FIRST) project, a prototype Hydrogen Station Equipment Performance (HyStEP) testing
HFTO activities align with the H2@Scale initiative envisioning affordable hydrogen production, storage, distribution and utilization across multiple applications
and sectors in the economy.
