2005 DOE Hydrogen Program Award for Excellence in R&D

Marianne Mintz and Michael Wang of Argonne National Laboratory, together with Margaret Mann, Johanna Levene, and Matthew Ringer of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory; Marylynn Placet of Pacific Northwest National Laboratory; Mike Rutkowski of Parsons Engineering; Steven Lasher and Kurt Roth of TIAX; Brian James of Directed Technologies, Inc.; Dan Mears of Technology Insights; and Joan Ogden of the University of California, Davis, received the 2005 Department of Energy (DOE) Hydrogen Program Award for Excellence in R&D in May. The team of scientists and engineers was recognized for advancing the analysis capabilities of hydrogen production and distribution. Their efforts resulted in an H2A model that provides a clear and transparent methodology, enabling DOE to evaluate various technology options for producing and delivering hydrogen and make decisions in an unbiased manner.
