Hydrogen demand
Hydrogen Vehicles – The Best Choice to Meet Climate Goals
- Typical electricity supply mix in developed countries
- IEA: Global EV Outlook 2019, May 2019; Argonne National Laboratory, USDOE: Cradle-to-Grave Lifecycle Analysis of US Light Duty Vehicle Pathways (ANL/ESO-17/7), September 2016; Ricardo: Understanding the life cycle GHG emssions for different vehicle types and powertrain technologies, August 2018
Government support
H2 Mobility Funded by German Government and EU.
Capacity
Aim to establish refueling capacity for 2 million fuel cell electric vehicles by 2022.
Develop market
Prime market being developed – passenger cars and light duty commercial vehicles.
Enough demand
More than enough hydrogen demand market space for the LH2 Europe’s liquid hydrogen project (initial production 100 t/d with option to expand).
16%
Conservative assumption that by 2040, 16% of newly sold vehicles will be hydrogen-fuelled fuel cell electric vehicles
More market space
Conservative view that heavy duty vehicle market penetration by hydrogen is slow. Early take up by a large fleet operator would provide even more market space for the project’s hydrogen imports.
Price of hydrogen to consumer
The delivered liquid hydrogen price to NW Europe is highly competitive to the consumer compared with the current retail price of 9.7 Euro/kg
