The new IEA HIA Task 28, Large-Scale Hydrogen Delivery Infrastructure, received final approval

Task 28 will focus on the transport and distribution of large scale hydrogen delivery infrastructure while including production and end-use issues as well. The three year effort comprises three subtasks: 1) definition of large-scale, views and order of magnitudes the framework for discussion and roll-out; 2) comparison of hydrogen refueling station concepts (both central and on-site production); and 3) analysis of hydrogen delivery routes (truck and pipeline). Industry participation is viewed as essential to the task. In addition, considerable cooperation with other IEA HIA tasks is foreseen. Year one Task 28 activities will map and describe; year two activities will analyse and compare; and year three activities will conclude and report. Dr. Marcel Weeda of the Energy Research Centre of the Netherlands will be the Task 28 Operating Agent with support from NL Agency.

The Fundamental Research swinner is Fundamental Safety Testing and Analysis of Hydrogen Storage Materials and Systems (H-25), a project of IEA HIA Task 22 Fundamental and Applied Hydrogen Storage Materials Development. The project team consisted of:

Donald Anton, Savannah River National Laboratory, USA
Richard Chahine, Universite du Quebec a Trois-Rivieres, Canada
Daniel Dedrick, Sandia National Laboratories, USA
Maximilian Fichtner, Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe, Germany
Nobuhiro Kuriyama, AIST, Japan
Daniel Mosher, United Technologies Research Center, USA

For Technology Demonstration, the winner is ITHER (Infraestructura Tecnologica del Hidrogeno y Energias Renovables). Also titled “Green Hydrogen from Wind and Solar Mobile
Applications, ITHER is a project of IEA HIA Task 24 Wind Energy and Hydrogen Integration. It was created by the Fundacion para el Desarrollo deNuevas Tecnologias del Hidrogeno en Aragon (Foundation for the Development of New Hydrogen Technologies in Aragon).
