Danish Government to launch hydrogen Infrastructure Program & continue FCEV tax exemptions thr…2015

PRESS RELEASE | 23.03.2012
[font size=4]The Danish Government has announced a new Energy Plan 2020 that includes establishment of a range of initiatives for hydrogen infrastructure and FCEV's with the overall aim to reach 100% fossil independence by 2050. The Government initiatives follow the recommendations from a recent Danish industry coalition analysis & roadmap on "Hydrogen for transport in Denmark onwards 2050".
[/font]
[font size=3]The hydrogen initiatives in the Danish Energy Plan 2020 provide a strong basis for establishing the hydrogen infrastructure needed to enable market introduction of fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV's) beyond 2015.
…
The Danish Energy Plan also outlines a set of Government analyses to be conducted to pave the way for continued efforts beyond 2020, with the aim to reach 100% fossil independence by 2050. The joint focus of the various analyses is to ensure an optimal linkage between the power/heat and transport sectors and ensure optimal utilization of the limited biomass potential. Further the analyses are to suggest solutions for energy storage of the increasing amount of fluctuating renewable electricity, which is to reach 50% share of power and heat consumption by 2020 and 100% by 2035.
Hydrogen plays a key role in both energy storage as well as connecting the power/heat and transport sector. Further hydrogen can act as a key component in the production of bio fuels and biogas from biomass, thus helping to boost the potential of the limited biomass. The various Danish Government analyses are therefore expected to provide strong basis for continued support mechanisms for hydrogen beyond 2015.
