| 摘要： | Stationary fuel cell power plants have been deployed in commercial operation since the early 1990s. The Connecticut General Assembly seeks to determine the feasibility of using fuel cells for the New Haven commuter rail line. Ongoing rail infrastructure improvements provide a window of opportunity to use fuel cell products manufactured in Connecticut as a clean and efficient power source while simultaneously growing the Connecticut economy. Two Connecticut companies, FuelCell Energy and UTC Power, are currently the only companies that offer commercial products with ratings above 100 kilowatts, a level deemed appropriate for most rail line applications. This report defines New Haven rail line candidate applications; determines technical feasibility of utilizing fuel cell power plants to meet these requirements; identifies economic consequences of using fuel cells; recommends appropriate utilization of fuel cells, and; identifies additional effort required to prepare and issue a request for fuel cell bids. / Supplementary Notes: Sponsored by Connecticut Dept. of Transportation, Newington. and Federal Highway Administration, Hartford, CT.
