Shell Hydrogen Vision for H2 Market Takeoff • We expect market takeoff between 2015 and 2025 • Under supportive circumstances we see the potential for 5 to 10 million FCV’s in 2020, growing beyond 100 million between 2030 and 2040 • Growth of H2 Market will depend on funding the transition to mass production • Dependent on public policy developments – incentives • Future landscape is being shaped now • Players developing H2 policies and positions
Shell Hydrogen Vision for Market Development • Stand alone projects – hydrogen-fuelled buses out of depots (e.g. Amsterdam and Luxembourg) • Second generation sites, with public access, but separate from existing fuel stations (e.g. Iceland station) • Fully integrated hydrogen and gasoline fuel stations (e.g. Benning Road Shell Station in Washington DC) • Within next 5 years – Lighthouse projects: integrated stations within mini-networks • 2010 – 2020 connecting the mini-networks with corridors and filling the white spaces
The Next Stretch Need for: • Addressing technical/manufacturing challenges • Codes & standards • Political awareness and public education • Lighthouse Projects and Mini-networks; Funding the transition to higher volumes
Hydrogen SafetyCodes & Standards • For the public to use hydrogen as a vehicle fuel, customers must be able to handle hydrogen with the same degree of confidence, and with comparable risk, as conventional gaseous and liquid fuels. • For the safe design of retail facilities, through the development of codes and standards, it is essential to understand all the hazards that could arise following the accidental release of hydrogen. • Hydrogen is simply different from conventional hydrocarbon fuels in several respects and a good quantitative understanding is required to ensure that it is handled safely.
