In August 2006, Maine's Governor established by Executive Order a partnership to accelerate commercially viable hydrogen production and fuel cells in the state. The purpose and duties of the Partnership are to: • Accelerate the development and deployment of commercially viable hydrogen production, storage and distribution technologies; • Accelerate the development and deployment of commercially viable fuel cells; • Support the growth and development of hydrogen energy and fuel cell-related businesses in the state; • Coordinate the dissemination of information regarding renewable hydrogen and initiatives for its manufacture and use; • Identify members of the hydrogen energy and fuel cell business cluster; • Identify and analyze the technical, scientific, financial, legal, and regulatory obstacles to the development of commercially viable hydrogen energy, fuel cell and related enabling technologies; • Analyze the opportunities to leverage federal research and development funding and improve the competitiveness of Maine entities to attract such federal and other funding sources and to work with the Maine Congressional delegation to that end; • Identify and develop the parameters, mission, and a pro forma budget for establishing and operating a hydrogen energy and fuel cell research and testing center which may be located at a qualified Maine institution of higher education; • Develop an action plan, including funding recommendations, to address the identified needs of Maine's hydrogen energy and fuel cell cluster and potential means to improve the global competitive position of the cluster; and • Stimulate development of private firms that will build hydrogen energy and fuel cell technology products at facilities located in Maine with Maine labor, giving special attention to the efficiencies and other benefits of co-locating such hydrogen energy and fuel cell cluster industries within economic development facilities where research and development, manufacturing, testing, display and production can happen in a mutually-supportive way for maximum expansion of this industry cluster in Maine. The Maine Hydrogen Energy Fuel Cell Partnership shall be composed of thirteen members appointed by the Governor, and will be comprised of the following: • The Director of the University of Maine's School of Engineering Technology, and the Chair of the University of Maine's Department of Chemistry, or their designees; • Two members nominated by the Maine Hydrogen Energy Center; • Two members nominated by the Chewonki Foundation; • Three for-profit Maine business entities; • Three entities, from Maine or elsewhere, with strong experience in hydrogen energy or fuel cell development, to be nominated by the other members of the Partnership; and • The chair of the Partnership.

RD&D SUPPORT Renewable Resources Matching Fund www.mainetechnology.com/?cat_id=278 ftp://ftp.state.me.us/pub/sos/cec/rcn/apa/65/407/407c312.doc The Renewable Resources Matching Fund (RRMF) was created by the state's Public Benefits Fund and supports renewable resource research and development and community demonstration projects using renewable-energy technologies. The RRMF is administered by the Maine Technology Institute. Funding of up to $50,000 per project is available through the program. The one project that has been funded through RRMF is the Chewonki Hydrogen Energy Center, which was approved for a demonstration project to accelerate deployment of renewable energy systems using hydrogen generators, storage and fuel cells.

STANDARDS/REGULATIONS POWER GENERATION MARYLAND Renewable Energy Portfolio Standard www.psc.state.md.us/psc/electric/rps/home.htm In 2005 the Maryland Public Service Commission of Maryland adopted final rules for implementation of the RPS Program. The program requires a percentage of retail electricity be supplied from renewable energy sources, ranging from 4% in 2006 and increasing to 7.5% in 2019. Eligible Tier 1 resources include wind, solar, landfill gas, 91
