  1. Advancing Fuel Cell Vehicles and Infrastructure Zero Emission Zero Carbon

  2. Significance of Fuel Cell Vehicle Development Renewable fuel Limited energy resources Fuel cell technology CO2 reduction Global warming Hybrid and internal combustion engine technology Atmospheric pollution 大気汚染 Exhaust emissions reduction (CO, HC, NOx) 1990 2000 2010 2020 Present FCV technology has the potential to concurrently help solve the problems of atmospheric pollution, global warming, and limited energy resources. HydrogenFCV FCV running on hydrogen made from natural energy sources = Zero CO2 emissions 2

  3. FCV Success: Importance of Approach CaFCP CaFCP Honda’s Focus: • Fuel Cell Technology Advancement • Customer Use & Feedback • H2 Infrastructure Innovation • And: Effective Cooperation • (e.g. CaFCP, CA H2 Net)

  4. 57 miles/kg EPA combined rating (label) Up to 210 mile range, EPA rated ~5 minute refueling time -20 to 95 deg. C Fuel Cell Operation 80kW (109 hp) Motor Power Navigation System – H2 stations Honda FCX

  5. FCX Commercial Certification Environment EPA/CARB Fuel Economy & Range Certification Safety NHTSA (DOT) FMVSS compliance

  6. Honda FCX Lease activity New York California & Nevada CANADA San Francisco Albany New York Las Vegas AQMD LA AHM Spallino Family :03M FCX Chula Vista :05M FCX :04M FCX

  7. HONDA FCX Market Launch History Consumer Lease Individual The approach taken: 2005 Hot weather Operation Las Vegas Cold weather Operation New York Extend FCX operation area Chula Vista SCAQMD H2 HWY 2004 San Francisco Distant Operation 2002 Los Angeles Start with local HONDA fleet customer

  8. Honda’s Steps to date: • 1. Design and deliver FCV for a real customers (Starting with City of LA, 2002) • Confirm FCV Freeze-capable performance (New York State Gov’t, Winter 2004) • Deliver FCV for individual consumer use (Starting in So. California, June 2005) Start of Individual Consumer Leases Consumer use will be the key to AFV success - Effort on vehicle technology and market-based activity, but, where do we go from here?

  9. Honda FC Power Plant Technology Advancement

  25. FCV Summary Fuel cell vehicle is the most promising technology for lowest GHG and use of sustainable energy sources. The 2005/6 FCX is powered by Honda FC Stack with the breakthrough ability to start and operate in sub-freezing temperatures, making it possible to place the car in northern regions.  Honda is taking a comprehensive approach that includes the development of both fuel cell and refueling technologies towards a hydrogen society. Over the next decade and beyond, need improvements to resolve technical hurdles and reduce cost.
