1 Fuel Cell Technologies Office NY-BEST Technology Conference Fuel Cell Transportation and Energy Storage Greg Moreland DOE Fuel Cell Technologies Office October 20, 2016

2 DOE Activities Span from R&D to Deployment Fuel Cell Technologies Office Research & Development Fuel Cells Cut cost in half since X less platinum 4X increase in durability $106/kW in 2007 *$280/kW low volume Fuel Cell System Cost* $53/kW in 2015 at high volume* Demonstration Forklifts, back-up power, airport cargo trucks, parcel delivery vans, marine APUs, buses, mobile lighting, refuse trucks >220 FCEVs, >30 stations, >6M miles traveled World s first tri-gen station H 2 technology station in Washington D.C. FCEV: Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle Examples of consortia supporting R&D Deployment >11X additional purchases ~1,600 units BU POWER LIFT TRUCKS WITH DOE FUNDING (COST SHARE DEPLOYMENTS) BU: Back Up Power ~18,000 units BU POWER LIFT TRUCKS W/O DOE FUNDING (ADDITIONAL PURCHASES) Supporting Deployment Fuel Cell Performance & Durability Advanced H 2 Storage Materials PGM-Free Catalysts for Fuel Cells Renewable H 2 Production Collaboration to address H 2 Infrastructure Barriers

3 Power (kw) Power (kw) H H 2 as an enabler Fuel Cell Technologies Office 3 Approx. Potential for: less GHG emissions 50% by 2050* Battery System *Preliminary analysis Energy (kwhr) Hydrogen System Energy (kwhr) *Illustrative example, not comprehensive Source: NREL; Lab Big Idea Summit 3 H 2 Focus Areas - Advanced Generation - Storage and Distribution - End use and systems integration

4 Electricity Grid H 2 for Energy Storage: DOE-HNEI Demo Project Fuel Cell Technologies Office 4 Wind Generator Fuel Cell, Internal Combustion, Steam Turbine Oxygen Storage Natural Gas Infrastructure Hydrogen Storage Value Added Applications Vehicle Fuel Fertilizer NH 3 Emergency Backup FC Solar Electrolyzer Geothermal Ramp up & Ramp-down capability for Grid stabilization Adapted from: Hawaii Natural Energy Institute Mitch Ewan, GE Transient PSLF TM BLK 1 MW /1 minute of H 2 storage BLUE No H 2 storage RED 1 MW/ Models indicate modest energy storage mitigates negative effects of wind penetration Hydrogen may be produced from a variety of renewable resources, and hydrogenbased energy storage could provide value to many applications and markets.

5 FCEVs and H2 Stations Providing Grid Support Fuel Cell Technologies Office 5 Investigate capabilities for FCEVs to provide backup power to buildings Requirements and costs Extent these capabilities may be utilized Benefits (e.g. reduced non-spinning reserves) Sensitivity to increasing adoption of FCEVs Toyota Mirai FCEV connection to grid Investigate capability for renewable hydrogen stations to provide grid support Determine quantity of hydrogen to meet vehicle needs while providing grid services Investigate available capacity throughout day for offering grid services (driving/fueling behavior) Sensitivity to increasing adoption of FCEVs (increasing utilization of capacity for vehicle fuel, growing number of stations providing services) CSULA: PV-electrolysis-based hydrogen station
