Direct linkWilhelm, Erik; Fowler, Michael – Bulletin of Science, Technology and Society, 2006
Hydrogen energy systems are being developed to replace fossil fuels-based systems for transportation and stationary application. One of the challenges facing the widespread adoption of hydrogen as an energy vector is the lack of an efficient, economical, and sustainable method of hydrogen production. In the short term, hydrogen produced from…

Deckel, Walter; And Others – 1979
An energy analysis model is provided for college administrators in which information from their utility bills is used to measure the amount of energy saved and to determine the fuel costs avoided when they undertake an energy conservation program. Because the model explicitly takes into account variations in weather, it provides an essential tool…

New York State Education Dept., Albany. Div. of Research. – 1978
The first in a series of reports consolidates data about energy sources and extrapolates that information to the problems and expenses that New York has and will experience in heating public schools. A presentation of national energy consumption is followed by an examination of the availability of potential alternatives to petroleum and natural…
