Hydrogen and Fuel Cells Technologies Available for Licensing
The National Renewable Energy Laboratory offers advanced hydrogen and fuel cell technologies to produce, store and safely use hydrogen made from renewable resources. The goal is to help industry develop technologies to produce, store, transport and use hydrogen in quantities large enough, and at costs low enough, to compete with traditional energy sources such as coal, oil and natural gas. A number of NREL's hydrogen and fuel cell technologies have been patented and are available for licensing.
