The U.S. Department of Energy's Fuel Cell Technologies Office (DOE FCTO), in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Transportation Maritime Administration (U.S. DOT-MARAD) and the European Commission Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking, hosted the H2@Ports Workshop on September 10–11, 2019, in San Francisco, California. The workshop convened over 90 experts from government, ports, and maritime industry to share information on the status of hydrogen and fuel cell technologies for maritime applications. Participants also identified hydrogen and fuel cells progress, challenges, and potential opportunities in the maritime sector that can enable DOE's H2@Scale initiative.
