As the EU Strategic Energy Technology Plan is pointing out in its Technology Map “The possible competition for primary energy sources for hydrogen production and other sectors of activities indicates a need for synergies and coordination between policies and industrial sector strategies”. From today’s observations, there also will be a mix of different solutions suited to individual mobility needs. This will include shifts in the modal split.
The European Hydrogen Association, EHA, in collaboration with the German Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association, DWV, present this brochure as a contribution to this discussion describing how hydrogen could accelerate the use of sustainable primary energy sources in our future energy system in Europe by integrating hydrogen as a storage medium and as a fuel in Europe’s transport systems. Therefore, renewable energies and hydrogen form a perfect alliance from an energy system’s point of view.
