The Minnesota State Energy Office (SEO) works to promote the benefits of energy<br />
efficiency and renewable energy to consumers and businesses in Minnesota. The SEO<br />
accomplishes this via education, securing federal funding for projects and bringing<br />
together government, business, non-profit and higher education stakeholders on projects<br />
beneficial to Minnesota. In 2004, the SEO was responsible for winning over $700,000 in<br />
competitive grants for Minnesota businesses to deploy new energy saving technologies.<br />
The SEO is one of the founding members of the Minnesota Renewable Hydrogen<br />
Initiative and has provided grants for fuel cell installations in Uninterruptible Power<br />
Systems applications in the telecommunications industry. This project will demonstrate<br />
fuel cells in a cost competitive application.<br />
The SEO has also issued two hydrogen reports, “Minnesota Biomass - Hydrogen and<br />
Electricity Generation Potential” (www.moea.state.mn.us/p2/forum/MNbiomass-<br />
NREL.pdf) and “The Hydrogen Potential: Hydrogen Technology and Minnesota<br />
Opportunities”<br />
(www.state.mn.us/mn/externalDocs/Commerce/Hydrogen_Potential_090803021706_Hy<br />
drogenReport4.pdf). Both reports were prepared in conjunction with the Minnesota<br />
Office of Environmental Assistance and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory.<br />
