The Benchmarking and Best Practices Center of Excellence (B2PCOE), managed by ACI Technologies, announces the second phase of the Fuel Cell Manufacturing Manhattan Project. Utilizing experts from industry, government, and academia, the B2PCOE in conjunction with Montana Tech of The University of Montana (MTT) will be conducting the Phase 2 session of the Fuel Cell Manufacturing Manhattan Project from March 15th through March 23rd in Butte, Montana. Having determined the major fuel cell manufacturing cost drivers, gaps, and best practices during the first phase, the subject matter experts will now produce a roadmap to address the various manufacturing issues identified. The subsequent dissemination of data through the efforts of the B2PCOE will provide R&D sponsors an insight into the technological requirements for the adaptation of fuel cells into Navy and other DoD federal systems and programs. The findings will be published and made available to the DoD and industry community in fall of 2011.
