GFO-20-604 – Hydrogen Fuel Cell Demonstrations in Rail and Marine Applications at Ports (H2RAM)

Details
Purpose:
To fund the design, integration, and demonstration of hydrogen fuel cell systems and hydrogen fueling infrastructure for locomotive and commercial harbor craft applications at California ports to reduce air pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions. Projects should seek to advance technologies that can enable ports as high throughput clusters for low-cost and low-carbon hydrogen and achieve scaled demand across multiple applications.
Description:
The purpose of this solicitation is to fund the design, integration, and demonstration of hydrogen fuel cell systems and hydrogen fueling infrastructure for locomotive and commercial harbor craft applications at California ports to reduce air pollutant and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
The California Energy Commission’s (CEC) Natural Gas R&D Program announces the availability of up to $6.6 million in grant funds for the technology integration and demonstration of hydrogen fuel cell-powered locomotives and harbor craft. Additionally, the CEC’s Clean Transportation Program (formerly known as the Alternative and Renewable Fuel and Vehicle Technology Program) announces the availability of up to $6 million in grant funds for shared hydrogen fueling infrastructure to support hydrogen fuel cell-powered locomotives or harbor craft, as well as on-road vehicles and cargo handling equipment.
