Excerpt: . . . 11 We will not build the infrastructure. The private sector will do that as the busi-ness case becomes clear. But as we develop the technologies needed by the vehicles, we will also develop the technologies required by the infrastructure. In cooperation with the U. S. Department of Transportation ( DOT ), we will convene the parties needed for technology partnerships, we will collaborate on the needed codes and standards, and we will promote international cooperation in this effort. On April 28, during a presentation to the International Energy Agency, Secretary Abraham called for an International Partnership for the Hydrogen Economy to collaborate on research and deployment of hydrogen technologies. BENEFITS Energy Diversity Hydrogen can be supplied in large quantities from domestic fossil, nuclear and re-newable resources. This mix of currently available and developing technology could provide a transition from traditional to next generation energy technologies bene-fiting society with reliable and affordable energy in the near and long terms. Hydro-gen and fuel cells can catalyze the establishment and utilization of a viable trans-portation market for nuclear energy, domestic coal supplies, and renewables. Carbon capture and sequestration will be needed, however, for all carbon-based sources of hydrogen such as coal. The fact remains, though, that our Nation possesses the nec-essary resources to produce large quantities of hydrogen. Transportation Every day, eight million barrels of oil are required to fuel the over 200 million vehicles that constitute our light duty transportation fleet. By 2025, the Nations light vehicle energy consumption is projected to grow to as much as 14 million bar-rels per day of. . . This item ships from La Vergne,TN.<
