摘要：	This report summarizes work conducted by the Hawaii Natural Energy Institute of the University of Hawaii under the Hawaii Energy and Environmental Technologies (HEET) Initiative funded through the Office of Naval Research. This initiative focused on critical technology needs associated with the exploration and utilization of seabed methane hydrates and the development and testing of advanced fuel cells and fuel cell systems. The efforts in methane hydrates comprised four primary components: laboratory and analytical investigations of hydrate destabilization phenomena, characterization of the microbial community in marine hydrate beds, engineering development of subsea power generation systems utilizing seafloor methane, and promotion of international R&D partnerships. In the fuel cell area, the major accomplishment was the addition of three new fuel cell test cells to the Hawaii Fuel Cell Test Facility to augment existing capabilities to include fuels purity studies and hardware-in-the-loop testing. In addition, simulation work encompassed evaluation of a fuel cell energy/power system for propulsion of an unmanned underwater vehicle. / NOTE: Final technical rept. 15 Jun 2004-30 Jun 2006. / Availability Note: Product reproduced from digital image.
