Note to the importance of fuel cell
technology and worldwide planning and investment on it, and our experience
especially in Ministry of Power of I.R.Iran, make us believe that the
development of fuel cell technology in Iran
needs national resolution as
well as attendance of the all interested parties. With this purpose, in 2002,
the fuel cell's steering committee was established by the proposal of the
office of assistant in energy affairs and participation of all the interested
organizations and companies. During its first sessions, it was accepted that it
is necessary to research about the degree of fuel cell technology attraction in
our country and by what way the government should be encounter it. Therefore,
the project of “Feasibility Studies and the Analysis of Fuel Cell Attraction
and Determination of its Development Strategy in Iran " was defined by the
Steering Committee and its execution has been undertaken by MAGFA.
Steering Committee has held more than 20
sessions till now. Its proceedings are available on Proceeding Option.
Also, in order to survey and evaluate
the results of the project of " Feasibility Studies and the Analysis of
Fuel Cell Attraction and Determination of its Development Strategy in Iran
" in January 28, 2005 a meeting was held by the Secretariat of Steering
Committee in the office of assistant in energy affairs.
