Founded in June 2001 A public -private partnership Core Group – Public entities Industry Advisory Panel – Private industry Working to advance the commercialization of stationary fuel cells for distributed generation throughout the state of California CaFCC History

The California Stationary Fuel Cell Collaborative (CaFCC) promotes the use of fuel cell technology in distributed generation and other stationary applications to help bring clean, efficient, reliable and sustainable power to all Californians. Vision Statement

The Collaborative promotes the commercialization of fuel cell technologies as a means of reducing or eliminating air pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions, increasing energy efficiency, promoting energy reliability and independence, and helping the state of California move closer to realizing a sustainable energy future. Under the auspices of the Collaborative, private industry and government agencies work together to: Advance programs and activities that accelerate the commercialization of stationary fuel cells in the California market; Advance the development of informed public policy ; Initiate public demonstrations of stationary fuel cells for distributed generation; Conduct key studies to further existing knowledge about fuel cell capabilities and the impact of fuel cells for distributed generation; and Raise public awareness about this technology.
