The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE's) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Fuel Cell Technologies Office hosted the workshop "Identifying Potential Pathways for Lower Cost 700 bar Storage Vessels." The workshop was held in Southfield, Michigan, on August 24, 2016, at the United States Council for Automotive Research (USCAR). The objective of the workshop was to identify and prioritize specific and tangible research and development strategies that have high potential to lower the costs of composite overwrapped pressure vessels (COPV) for 700 bar hydrogen storage to enable wide-spread commercialization of fuel cell electric vehicles. The strategies identified may be used to develop future Funding Opportunity Announcements.
