DOE Materials-Based Hydrogen 

Storage Summit: Defining Pathways 

for Onboard Automotive Applications 

AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy, Department of 

Energy (DOE). 

ACTION: Notice of public workshop. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces a 

public workshop for interested parties 

to learn about recent results from DOE’s 

materials-based hydrogen storage 

system modeling efforts. In addition, 

DOE intends to gather input from 

workshop participants to identify 

hydrogen storage material development 

pathways and potential future areas of 

research. This input will be used to help 

guide future activities for the DOE 

Hydrogen Storage Program. 

DATES: The workshop will be held 

Tuesday, January 27, 2015 from 8:30 

a.m. to 5 p.m. and Wednesday, January 

28, 2015 from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. 

Registration and a $75 fee is required; 

Web site address to registration is 

provided below.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The U.S. 

Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) 

National Renewable Energy Laboratory 

(NREL) in conjunction with the DOE 

Fuel Cell Technologies Office’s 

Hydrogen Storage Program (http://

energy.gov/sites/prod/files/2014/11/f19/

fcto_myrdd_storage.pdf), will host a 

public workshop titled: DOE Materialsbased Hydrogen Storage Summit: 

Defining Pathways for Onboard 

Automotive Applications. 

Recent analysis efforts, including 

results from the Hydrogen Storage 

Engineering Center of Excellence, 

identified the material-level 

characteristics required to meet the DOE 

system-level performance targets. These 

results show that although the DOE has 

invested extensively in hydrogen 

storage materials development, no 

material has been identified that, when 

incorporated into a complete system, 

can meet the challenging DOE 

performance targets. 

Fuel cell electric vehicles are being 

introduced commercially today. 

Therefore, if materials-based storage 

technologies are to be employed on 

consumer vehicles in the future, it is 

imperative that the development of 

hydrogen storage materials be 

accelerated and efforts focused on 

pathways with the highest probability of 

success. Through an understanding of 

the material characteristics needed to 

meet system performance targets, it is 

expected that material development 

strategies can be optimized to meet the 

DOE hydrogen storage targets. 

In summary, this workshop will serve 

two main objectives: 

(1) Disseminate recent results from 

DOE Hydrogen Storage system modeling 

efforts and discuss their implications on 

hydrogen storage materials development 

efforts. 

(2) Gather input from meeting 

participants to identify hydrogen storage 

materials development pathways and 

potential future areas of research which 

will lead to the highest probability of 

success. This input will be used to help 

guide future activities for the DOE 

Hydrogen Storage Program.

the workshop including the current 

agenda. 

To register, please visit: http://www.

nrel.gov/ap/h2-storage-summit/. Please 

note that registration is required for all 

meeting attendees. Cash or check 

payment of $75 will be collected on the 

morning of the first day of the meeting.

Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission 

[Docket Nos. CP15–17–000; PF14–1–000] 

Sabal Trail Transmission, LLC; Notice 

of Application 

Take notice that on November 21, 

2014, Sabal Trail Transmission, LLC 

(Sabal Trail), 5400 Westheimer Court, 

Houston, TX 77056, filed an application 

under section 7(c) of the Natural Gas 

Act, requesting authorization to 

construct, own, and operate a new 500- 

mile natural gas pipeline system (Sabal 

Trail Project), including 209,900 

horsepower at five compressor stations, 

metering and regulating stations, and 

appurtenant facilities in Alabama, 

Georgia, and Florida. Sabal Trail also 

requests a certificate of public 

convenience and necessity to acquire by 

lease from Transcontinental Gas Pipe 

Line Company, LLC (Transco) the 

incremental firm capacity that will be 

created by Transco’s proposed Hillabee 

Expansion Project (Docket No. CP15– 

16–000). Sabal Trail also requests a 

blanket certificate pursuant to Part 157, 

Subpart F of the Commission’s 

regulations, authorizing Sabal Trail to 

construct, operate, acquire and abandon 

certain facilities as described in Part 

157, Subpart F, and a blanket certificate 

pursuant to Part 284, Subpart G of the 

Commission’s regulations, authorizing 

Sabal Trail to provide open-access firm 

and interruptible interstate natural gas 

transportation services on a selfimplementing basis with pre-granted 

abandonment for such services, all as 

more fully set forth in the application 

which is on file with the Commission 

and open for public inspection. The 

filing may also be viewed on the web at
