Stark State College Fuel Cell
Prototyping Center |
|
|
To help Ohio create and retain
high quality jobs, Stark State College of Technology has constructed a $4.7
million Fuel Cell Prototyping Center. Completed in the Fall of 2006, the
Center is designed for use by emerging and fuel cell-related technology
companies to assist them in
pre-commercialization prototyping and |
|
|
demonstration stages of the
development of fuel cell-based power generation systems.
The charter tenant in the Fuel
Cell Prototyping Center is Rolls-Royce Fuel Cell Systems (US) Inc. The Fuel
Cell Prototyping Center was created as part of the Wright Fuel Cell Group,
comprised of academic, industry and other collaborators, forming a network
to marshal resources to accelerate innovation and commercialization for the
fuel cell industry across Ohio.
|
In addition, Stark State is
now offering a
fuel cell
technology track and
scholarship as part of the mechanical engineering technology
program. The track incorporates mechanical, electrical, and chemical
technologies to provide education for the application of scientific and
engineering principles focused on alternative energy sources and more
specifically, fuel cell technology. |
