5. PARTNERSHIPS<br />

Chewonki Renewable Hydrogen Project<br />

www.chewonkih2.org<br />

The Chewonki Renewable Hydrogen Project is a joint venture between the Hydrogen<br />

Energy Center, The Chewonki Foundation and Maine Energy Investment Corporation to<br />

accelerate deployment of renewable energy systems using hydrogen generators,<br />

storage and fuel cells; stimulate hydrogen technology business development in Maine;<br />

and develop relationships among renewable energy interests, educational and research<br />

organizations, industry organizations, code enforcement officials, and renewable energy<br />

designers and contractors. The project consists of three major programs:<br />

• Design, installation and operation of a hydrogen energy system fueled by<br />

renewable energy. This system will provide four days backup power for<br />

critical activities at Chewonki’s Center for Environmental Education.<br />

• Extensive public outreach that includes on-site displays, the expansion of<br />

Chewonki’s existing Sustainable Energy Education Tour and several<br />

brochures and workshop outlines to introduce general audiences to hydrogen<br />

energy systems.<br />

• A technical and business support program for Maine’s renewable energy<br />

industry to embrace hydrogen technologies.<br />

Chewonki Renewable Hydrogen Project partners include a broad range of organizations,<br />

businesses, and government, including the Maine Public Utilities Commission and DOE.<br />

The Maine Technology <strong>Institute</strong> is providing primary funding for the project.<br />
