6. RD&D SUPPORT
Alternative Energy and Efficiency Program
www.aidea.org/aea/programsalternative(2).html
The Alaska Energy Authority's Alternative Energy and Efficiency Program supports
development efforts in the areas of CHP, fuel cells, and renewable energy to reduce the
dependence of rural communities on diesel fuel. The state’s fuel cell R&D has been
conducted by the University of Alaska Fairbanks’ Arctic Energy Technology
Development Laboratory through a cooperative agreement between the Alaska Energy
Authority, the University and the Arctic Energy Office of the National Energy Technology
Laboratory. Funding is provided by DOE.

8. STATE AND LOCALLY-SUPPORTED DEMONSTRATIONS
POWER GENERATION
Fairbanks Natural Gas office, Fairbanks: The Fuel Cell Technologies 5-kW SOFC
was installed to study fuel cells for small scale power requirements in remote locations,
such as those found throughout much of Alaska. The project was funded through the
University of Alaska Fairbanks Arctic Energy Technology Development Laboratory in
partnership with DOE. The fuel cell operated between 2003 and 2004.
