Goal
|
The goal of this project is to demonstrate the viability of using renewably produced hydrogen in an airport environment.
|
|
Description
|
The hydrogen generated by the solar and wind array will provide stationary heat and power for an airport building and transportation fuel for zero emission airport vehicles.
The Illinois Coalition received a grant from the Illinois Clean Energy Community Foundation to develop Illinois' first hydrogen fueling station powered by renewable sources. The grant was matched by in-kind contributions from participant organizations including Illinois Institute of Technology, Aerotecture Inc, Rock Valley College, and global law firm Latham and Watkins. The project, powered primarily by solar and wind energy, will be housed at Rockford's Greater Northwest Chicagoland Regional Airport and represents the Foundation's first investment in fuel cell technology.
