• Site setup• Site planning• Site budget• Current challenges• Expected barriers against FC Bus

operations

3 Site setup

• ENI Magliana Nord has been identified as high-potential site:– Visibility (Rome area on motorway to Fiumicino)– Proximity (close to main italian 3EMOTION players)– Possibility (commercial/industrial/municipal sites)

• Leverage on existing H2 distribution hardware (2006)

• Negotiations on-going with ENI (site leaser) and ANAS (site owner) for utilization within frame of 3EMOTION

• Creation of a juridical (non-profit) body for site management within 3EMOTION (bills, certificates, authorizations)

6 Site setup

The Plan:• Revise & upgrade current Alkaline

electrolysis system to 20 Nm3/h capacity• Revise/substitute H2 compression system• Revise & enlarge H2 storage system• Revise/substitute H2 dispenser• Install biomass gasifier + PSA

scrubber for green H2 production• Trucked-in H2 for back-up/supplement

7 Site setup

The UNIfHY project:• FCH-JU project ending in 2015• Development of a biomass gasifier with in-

situ gas cleaning and PSA purification for HRS-grade H2 production

• Proof-of-concept at scale ongoingTo be done:• Transfer of reactors to HRS site• System integration with elyser

(purification, compression, storage)• Operated 5 days (80 kg H2) a week

15 Current challenges

HRS:• ENI & ANAS Agreement• H2 Storage capacity & pressure compressed H2 supply• On-site H2 compression and H2 quality downstream • Refuelling distributor (supply and performance)• Electricity cost for elctrolyser

(0.15-0.20 €/kWh à 11 €/kgH2 | 0.10 €/kWh à <9 €/kgH2)

FCB:• FCB Guarantee and servicing agreements/conditions• FCB drivetrain monitoring and fault detections• Training of technicians and drivers

16 Barriers against FC Bus operations

• Spare parts supply• Guarantee and servicing• Operating costs• Optimal cost-effectiveness vs Battery buses• H2 supply (cost & source)• Awareness & safety
