摘要: This Department of Energy (DOE) report is in response to section 812(e) of the Energy Policy Act of 2005. It is a detailed summary of the technology roadmaps for solar- and wind-based hydrogen production. Included are descriptions of DOE's progress in establishing programs required by section 812, and recommendations for promoting solar- and wind-based hydrogen production technologies. This report also includes a comprehensive summary of DOE solar and wind hydrogen projects in the Appendix. Hydrogen used as an energy carrier potentially offers the nation tremendous long-term energy, environmental, and economic security. Deriving hydrogen from domestic, carbon-neutral resources addresses foreign oil dependence, and criteria and greenhouse gas emissions. In his 2003 State of the Union Address, President Bush announced a $1.2 billion Hydrogen Fuel Initiative to reverse America's growing dependence on foreign oil and to improve the environment. Led by DOE, the Hydrogen Fuel Initiative seeks to develop hydrogen, fuel cell, and infrastructure technologies by 2015 so that industry can make it practical and cost-effective for Americans to choose hydrogen-powered fuel cell vehicles by 2020. On August 8, 2005, President Bush signed into law the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (Public Law 109-58). Title VIII of the Energy Policy Act of 2005, Hydrogen, strengthens and reinforces the Presidents vision of a hydrogen economy. DOE's long-term strategy is to produce hydrogen from various resources: renewables (including solar, wind, biomass, hydropower, and geothermal), nuclear energy, and domestic coal (with sequestration of greenhouse gases).
