Alignment to IPCorrelation with IDAs

IDA 1: Hydrogen and Refueling Stations

develop and install distribution chains for hydrogen vehicles

Phase I 2010: demonstration at 13 sites with 9 refueling stations onsite H2 production

R&D: refuelling technologiesreduce cost of technologyimprove system reliabilityregulation and safety issues

strengthen SMEs smaller production values and early markets

Alignment to IPProject activities vs. IP document targets

NEMESISNEMESIS

Phase I 2010: demonstration with 9 refueling stations

2008: proof-of-principle prototype 10kg H2/dayupscaling by a factor of 10 to 50 for fueling20 to 100 vehicles/day

2020: cost of hydrogen at pump <2.5€/kg (centralized and decentralized, excl. taxes)

cost target can be reached with NEMESIS technology

strengthening of the position of SMEs
