Stamenkovic leads hydrogen research team funded by DOE

The U.S. Department of Energy has awarded $3.75 million to UCI engineers for research to advance critical technologies to produce, store, deploy, and utilize hydrogen. AirUCI faculty Vojislav Stamenkovic is leading the UCI team and  in early June attended the funding award announcement in Washington, D.C.  The team's goal is to enable the widespread commercialization of hydrogen and fuel cell technology targeting medium- and heavy-duty trucks “Hydrogen technologies are the prevailing choice to effectively address decarbonization of the energy sector, electrify transportation and modernize the electric grid,” said Voya, “nevertheless, to widely use hydrogen as a fuel, further improvements in the technology are essential.”  Read the article
