1 Introduction The purpose of this document is to support the deployment of fuel cells by identifying regulatory require- ments and providing information on fuel supplies@ permitting@ and other procedures that would assist a project developer. The guide may also be helpful to other parties involved in project deployment@ such as: Equipment manufacturers Fuel suppliers Code officials Municipal planners Emergency responders. This document is the first in a set of two. The second document is a users guide for deployment of station- ary fuel cells and will be focused more on guidance for operating stationary fuel cells@ as opposed to codes and standards compliance. This document covers the following topics: Basic systems structure Overview of codes and standards and generally applicable codes and standards Fuel supply considerations Permitting processes@ including a detailed overview of codes and standards Reserved sections for such topics as an Emergency Response Plan and Standards Permits The TIA Fuel Cell Focus Group@ which authored this document@ had extensive discussions about the user??s needs and how they could best be addressed. These discussions led to the creation of a lengthy section on fuel supply considerations. The intent is that this will be a living document and that as deployment progresses@ these sections will pro- vide the necessary information.
