This project involved the development of a vision and technology roadmap for the development of hydrogen energy in China. The primary client for this assignment was the Ministry of Science and Technology of the Peoples Republic of China.
Energetics devised a visioning and technology roadmapping process that could be applied through a series of workshops involving Chinese scientists, engineers, government officials, and private sector managers. Energetics analyzed U.S. hydrogen roadmapping experiences and organized a vision meeting held in Beijing in May 2004 and a roadmap workshop also held in Beijing in January 2005.
Energetics' technical facilitators worked with their Chinese counterparts to identify a unique vision for the hydrogen economy in China, as well as technical barriers, goals, and pathways of technology development activities, including demonstration projects being planned for the 2008 Summer Olympic Games.
