Synopsis

ICEPAG-2004 is a two-day international fuel cell hybrid colloquium organized by the National Fuel Cell Research Center (NFCRC) in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Energy, the European Union (EU), the United Nations (UN), and the Pacific Rim Consortium on Energy, Combustion, and the Environment (PARCON).

The emphasis of the colloquium is fuel cell hybrid systems (1) in the range from 15kW to 300MW, (2) fueled by natural gas, coal, and renewable sources, and (3) with a breadth concepts (including chemical hybrids) and applications (residential, stationary power, and mobile power).  Particular attention will be directed to (1) the emerging international activity in fuel cell hybrid interest, hybrid programs, and hybrid technology, and (2) the potential for cooperation and collaboration between participating countries.  This colloquium will be in the form of presentations given on the technological, environmental, regulatory, and market aspects of advanced energy technologies in general, and fuel cell hybrid technology in particular. 

An optional hybrid tutorial short course will be scheduled for the afternoon of September 20^th in order to allow those interested to garner essential background on the fundamentals, design, deployment history, and operating characteristics of hybrid fuel cell systems.
