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 />
