Hydrogen Roadmap Key Findings Hydrogen has the potential to facilitate significant reductions in energy-related CO 2 emissions and to contribute to limiting global temperature rise to 2 C, Hydrogen use can lower local air pollutants and noise emissions compared to direct fossil fuel combustion. Hydrogen can enable new linkages between energy supply and demand, in both a centralized or decentralized manner, potentially enhancing overall energy system flexibility. Fuel cell electric vehicles can provide the mobility service of today s conventional cars at potentially very low carbon emissions. 5 COP21 The conference objective is to achieve a legally binding and universal agreement on climate (with commitments). 40 Ministers and 195 Countries will participate. 40 000 people are expected at the meeting. In a parallel initiative, the Lima-Paris Action Agenda is a joint undertaking Peruvian and French COP presidencies, the UN and the UNFCCC Secretariats. It is aimed at strengthening climate action in COP21 and beyond. HFC technologies is one of the important topic in the agenda 6

19 2015 2016 will be the first years where it is possible to procure and freely operate a hydrogen vehicle in London Vehicles are now relatively easily available, (albeit with a price premium) Earliest adopters can now begin trials using the existing infrastructure and making use of the funding which is available to achieve cost parity The next 5-10 years should see a progressive increase in the range of models and the spread of stations, and a significant decrease in cost of ownership Passenger cars (from OEMs) Light commercial vehicles (RE-EV) 12-18m buses Larger trucks and vans
REFUELLING INFRASTRUCTURE providing convenience in three main clusters London Cluster: ITM Power Air Products Copenhagen Cluster: CHN (Copenhagen Hydrogen Network) Southern Cluster: LINDE OMV 21 Fleets of vehicles Fleet definition: Fleet vehicles with predictable driving and refuelling patterns, as well as regular visits to or overnight parking at a depot Potentially suitable market segments: Fleet cars Delivery/utility Rationale Lower cost range-extended fuel cells could reduce ownership costs of early vehicles Can allow lower pressure fuelling Benefits from existing fleet regulations e.g. zero emissions logistics/urban access restrictions H 2 stations and fleets could be matched to improve utilisation and economics Fleet anchor loads can support early clusters, which can then be connected to form corridors and national coverage Medium duty logistics Taxis

CONCLUSIONS Progress around the world is considerable. Hydrogen has a bright future. The International Energy Agency recognizes now the potential of hydrogen technologies. We need to continue our efforts to increase the visibility level of Hydrogen Technologies at the world policy level. IPHE is pleased to support the Hydrogen Safety Conference in Yokohama next month. 25
