Since its completion in early 2006, HDSAM Version 1.0 has provided inputs to a number of analytical efforts including the development of multi-sector energy models, transition models and financial models, analyses of stranded assets and employment impacts, and various case studies. HDSAM has also been subject to detailed review as part of ongoing H2A Delivery Analysis, a joint effort by researchers at Argonne National Laboratory, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, the University of California at Davis, the Nexant Corporation, ChevronTexaco Joint Ventures, Air Liquide, TIAX LLC, and the Gas Technology Institute, with support from the US Department of Energy's Office of Hydrogen, Fuel Cells and Infrastructure Technologies. This paper reports on improvements incorporated into HDSAM Version 1.5, their effect on results, and ongoing model enhancements.
