1st IAHE Hydrogen Student Design Competition Winners The first IAHE Student Design Competition was held last year, and the winners have been announced. The most unique aspect of this inaugural IAHE competition competitions is that the competing IAHE student chapters were asked to actually build a portable hydrogen generator or fuel cell and experimentally test it. Several IAHE student chapter teams designed, built, and tested the devices from scratch, and the results were very impressive. Voting for the winners was conducted by the IAHE Board of Directors, which consists of over a dozen distinguished hydrogen engineers and scientists from all corners of the globe. The voting was extremely close, and all teams did an outstanding job. The winning teams are: 1) Princeton University 2) Penn State University 3) Oakland University in Michigan The winning papers are presented in the following pages. YouTube videos describing the winning submissions can be seen at the links below:
