Our Vision for Sustainable Mobility Fleet vehicles on hydrogen - 2005 Experience of hydrogen FCVs. Familiarise public with safe hydrogen refuelling Transition via onboard hydrocarbon reforming - 2010 Familiar fuel. No new infrastructure required. Hazards understood. Significant CO 2 reduction. Enables commercialisation of FC vehicles Mass market hydrogen fuel cell vehicles - 2020 Full infrastructure develops by incremental steps. Major CO 2 emission benefits Carbon-free hydrogen fuel cell Vehicles - 2050 Increasing proportion of H 2 generation from renewables. Geological CO 2 sequestration. Carbon free mobility

Fuel cells history Old technology (since 1839), always too expensive; NASA first to recognise its commercial potential (1960’s) Since 1990, technology revival Currently FC power not price-competitive with power from central generators In the automotive area different lifetime requirements, and different cost targets Most natural fuels: Stationary: natural gas Transportation: clean gasoline, hydrogen Portable: LPG, methanol, hydrogen
