The California Energy Commission's Research and Development Division supports the<br />
research, technology development and demonstration of new technologies for<br />
generation of electricity, electricity demand-side management, and natural gas. The<br />
division activities include providing contracts and grants to institutions for research and<br />
development of energy technologies and related scientific activities. Programs include:<br />
California Public Interest Energy Research Program (PIER)<br />
www.energy.ca.gov/pier/index.html<br />
The PIER Program supports energy RD&D projects that will help improve the quality of<br />
life in California by bringing environmentally safe, affordable and reliable energy services<br />
and products to the marketplace. The program awards up to $62 million annually to<br />
conduct the most promising public interest energy research by partnering with RD&D<br />
organizations including individuals, businesses, utilities, and public or private research<br />
institutions. Approximately five to ten% of PIER’s annual $62.5 million budget is<br />
allocated for stationary fuel cell activities.<br />
