Hydrogen 101 : 

Hydrogen 101 January 3, 2008 www.schydrogen.org

Introduction: 

Introduction The development and commercialization of hydrogen and fuel cell technology is key to our state’s future. Hydrogen can: Reduce our reliance on foreign sources of oil and fuel Improve the environment Spur economic growth Increase South Carolina’s recognition as a technology innovator and build overall interest

What is hydrogen?: 

What is hydrogen? Energy carrier not an energy source Most abundant element in the universe Rarely found in pure form in nature Colorless and odorless gas Can be produced from hundreds of different sources, many renewable Can be converted into an energy source by use of a fuel cell

What hydrogen is not…: 

What hydrogen is not… Misconceptions Hydrogen is responsible for the explosion of the Hindenburg Hydrogen is more explosive than gasoline Powering a hydrogen car requires a fuel tank almost as large as the car itself Hydrogen is less powerful than gasoline (Actually, Liquid Hydrogen has a BTU of 60,000 per pound and gasoline has a BTU of 18,000)

Why hydrogen? : 

Why hydrogen? Hydrogen is “the forever fuel” Petroleum reserves are being depleted and prices susceptible to foreign events beyond our control Bio fuels, including ethanol, cannot meet the growing demand of transportation fuels Hydrogen cannot be depleted Hydrogen has the ability to make societies completely energy-independent

Is Renewable Energy the Answer?: 

Is Renewable Energy the Answer?

What are our options?: 

What are our options? Coal and Heavy Hydrocarbons Large environmental signature Global warming concerns Renewable energy sources Biomass, Hydro, Wind, Solar May only be partial solution Nuclear Fission No new U.S. reactors ordered since 1970’s Worldwide renaissance in progress Nuclear Fusion - Long-term

Advantages of Hydrogen as an Energy Carrier : 

Advantages of Hydrogen as an Energy Carrier Inexhaustible Can be extracted from water Clean Only emissions from hydrogen fueled car are heat and water Universally Available to All Countries Can be produced with regional energy sources

Current Hydrogen Supply Markets: 

Production Sources 48% Natural Gas 30% Oil 18% Coal 4% Electrolysis of H20 Major Markets 60% Ammonia/fertilizer 23% Petroleum refining (sulfur removal) 9% Methanol 8% chemical, space and metallurgical processes Current Hydrogen Supply Markets

What is a “Hydrogen Economy”? : 

What is a “Hydrogen Economy”? Broad-based use of hydrogen as a fuel Energy carrier analogous to electricity Produced from variety of primary energy sources Can serve all sectors of the economy: transportation, power, industry, buildings and residential Replaces oil and natural gas as the preferred end-use fuel Makes renewable and nuclear energy “portable” –transportation needs

Slide13: 

Timeline for Hydrogen Industry Segments

What is a fuel cell?: 

What is a fuel cell? Produces electricity Power source similar to a battery Requires refueling, not recharging Heat and water are the only emissions of hydrogen fuel cell powered vehicles Can be used to power homes, businesses, vehicles and small portable devices

Fuel Cell Basics: 

Fuel Cell Basics “Hydrogen Fueled Battery” Invented by Sir William Grove in 1839 Reacts H2and O2 electrochemically First practical use by NASA in 1960’s space program Operates continuously when supplied with H2fuel Byproduct is pure water/ High Efficiency (55-60%)

Why now?: 

Why now? There is an emerging hydrogen economy which provides a unique opportunity for South Carolina Industrial demand is increasing Hydrogen market is growing by more than 10% every year Economic opportunities in production, storage, distribution and commercialization will continue to be created Government investments are increasing

National Commitment to Hydrogen Technology: 

National Commitment to Hydrogen Technology “Tonight I’m proposing $1.2 billion in research funding so that America can lead the world in developing clean, hydrogen-powered automobiles…With a new national commitment, our scientists and engineers will overcome obstacles to taking these cars from laboratory to showroom, so that the first car driven by a child born today could be powered by hydrogen, and pollution-free.” President Bush January 28, 2003, State of the Union Address

Why South Carolina?: 

Why South Carolina? SC is one of only 14 states with a hydrogen roadmap, plan or coordinated effort SC has a strong hydrogen R&D base Savannah River National Laboratory – Research in hydrogen storage and production Center for Hydrogen Research – Opened in Feb. 2006 with shared hydrogen research labs for academic and industrial research partners. Toyota invested approx. $1 million in the lab in Sept ‘05

Why South Carolina? (cont): 

Why South Carolina? (cont) University of South Carolina’s NSF funded Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Fuel Cells Research South Carolina State University’s Clyburn Transportation Center – Research in transportation and education Clemson University International Center for Automotive Research – Research in automotive design and integration

Why South Carolina? (cont): 

Why South Carolina? (cont) Strong hydrogen-related business clusters BMW – Announced plans to mass produce hydrogen cars by 2010, has R&D facilities in Greenville, production in Spartanburg GE Energy – Greenville location works closely with fuel cell development Washington Savannah River Company – A world leader in the management and storage of hydrogen for defense programs
