HyTrEc2
Hydrogen Transport Economy for the
North Sea Region 2
Louise Napier
HyTrEc2 Project Manager

? The Hydrogen Transport Economy (HyTrEc) 2 project is part of
the Interreg VB North Sea Programme Region Programme and
is partly funded by the European Regional Development Fund.
? Falls within programme Priority 4: Promoting green transport
and mobility
? Total budget of 5,246,271 € of which the ERDF Contribution is
2,197,940 €
? Five year project from 2016 to 2021.

Pioneering
? 93%1 of transport is currently oil based. Green transport
solutions, such as hydrogen, will play a key role in achieving
EU energy and climate change targets.
? Hydrogen Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEV) have a longer
range than electric battery vehicles. This extended range is
essential in those North Sea regions which have numerous
small sized cities with a large suburban and rural hinterland.

Collaboration
? Current market failure caused by the high cost of FCEVs and
the need to make green hydrogen cheaper through more cost
effective green hydrogen production, storage and distribution.
? HyTrEc2 will create conditions so that a FCEV market can
develop providing a platform for collaborative development of
strategies and initiatives that will inform and shape the
development of infrastructure, technology and skills.

Vision:
Stimulating hydrogen fuelled transport solutions
for business, for the environment,
for the future.

Objectives
? Implementing innovative hydrogen transportation solutions
involving cars, vans, large trucks and refuse collection vehicles
to advance the case for zero emission solutions for public and
private sector fleets.
? Improving the supply chain and training so that the NSR
becomes a Centre of Excellence for hydrogen transport.
? Developing innovative methods for the production, storage
and distribution of green hydrogen.
? Complementing national programmes for hydrogen and
facilitating joint NSR approaches and common standards.

Key Partner Activities
? Testing a range of transportation technologies such as fuel
cell, range extenders, and dual fuel vehicles.

Sourcing Hydrogen Vehicles
? Partners are leasing, purchasing or retrofitting hydrogen cars, vans
and trucks through joint procurement frameworks or using each
other’s retrofitting organisations
? Purchase or lease cars such as Toyota Mirais and Hyundai ix35s.
Hyundai Nexo. BMW in 2019
? Purchase or lease retrofitted electric vans (Renault Kangoos)
? Retrofit electric vehicles with a fuel cell and hydrogen tank (such as
Nissan env200)
? Retrofit diesel vehicles with fuel cell and hydrogen tank (Ford
Transit vans)
? Retrofit diesel vehicles with electric driveline and then add a fuel
cell and hydrogen tank!

Vehicle Deployments - Retrofitting
? Nissan eNV200 Acenta Rapid electric van
? Retrofitted with 8.5kw hydrogen fuel cell and 350 bar hydrogen tank
? Increase van range from 106 miles to a minimum of 192 miles
? Compatible with TK17 nozzle for 350 bar fuelling

Vehicle Deployments - Simulation
? Forklift Truck Simulation
? Small and medium sized forklifts often have electrical drivelines
? Battery capacity is often not big enough during long working days with several
shifts
? Trialled swapping out larger battery and replacing with
Hydrogen storage and a battery with smaller capacity and
volume
? Assume battery capacity of 54kWh and fuel cell 15kW
? Conclusion: possible to build and can perform, but size of fuel
cell and optimal performance depends on detailed knowledge
of the power requirement over the course of the day

Vehicle Deployments - Purchase
? Two Hyundai ix35s FCEVs
? 1,839 miles since October 2017 to March 2018
? Daily average of 49.7 miles

Creating a Market for Hydrogen Vehicles
? Offer opportunities for other public sector organisations to trial
those vehicles
– NHS Grampian trialling Toyota Mirais
– Arnold Clark Toyota training local staff on Toyota maintenance
– Groningen Fire department trialling Hyundai ix35s
? Offer opportunities for private sector organisations and citizens to
trial those vehicles
– Co-wheels trialling Nissan env200
– Co-wheels trialling Renault Kangoo van
– Co-wheels trialling Toyota Mirais

Developing the Market
? ‘Prototypes’ are more expensive than ‘from the forecourt’ petrol,
diesel and even electric counterparts
? Not only is hydrogen developing fairly sporadically but the base
electric vehicles are improving as well
? Major vehicle manufacturers producing cars but usually delays to
deployment - initially not for sale on mass market nor were they at
an affordable price - especially when compared to their diesel or
petrol equivalent
? Fuel anxiety
? Two Hydrogen Refuelling Stations required

Cooperation
? Investigate ways to improve production, storage and distribution of
green hydrogen including use of solar and wind power.
? Tend to build bespoke Hydrogen Refuelling stations
? A number of HRS purchase electricity on a ‘green tariff’
? Hydrogen is produced ‘on demand’ (unless large amounts of
storage) quite often making electricity/ hydrogen expensive.
? Aim is to demonstrate the business case for using wind and solar to
produce electricity

Green Hydrogen: Wind
? Investigated wind at Aberdeen City Hydrogen
Energy Storage (ACHES)
? Issue for urban areas – nearby land sold for a
residential development
? Feasibility study for options and conclusion was
small scale solar panels or off-site wind
development and investigate possibilities for
deploying hydrogen to ‘distribution locations’
? We believe this is the future for hydrogen
refuelling
? Market testing with Dundee City Council, Fife
Council and Perth and Kinross Council

Cooperation
? Develop the supply chain for green hydrogen transport and identify
the training requirements and organisations that would benefit
from training as well as identifying common rules and standards for
the use of hydrogen in the transport sector.
? Why?

Enabling the Market
? All Partners have been having difficulty on some level
– Vehicle procurement/ retrofitting
– Hydrogen Refuelling Stations and Green Hydrogen
– Training courses for technicians to maintain vehicles
? First exercise was for all Partners to speak to their national
hydrogen organisations on supply chain identification
? Commissioned consultant Pale Blue Dot to identify the
hydrogen supply chain

Entering the Hydrogen Market
? Not only identified the supply chain but which businesses
would be best placed to adapt to hydrogen.
? Hosting a number of business to business meetings to
encourage this:
– Groningen in September 2017
– Aberdeen 9th October 2018
? Technicians training courses accompanying increasing
numbers of vehicles offers opportunities for technical colleges
as well

About HyER
? Hydrogen, fuel cells and electro-mobility in
European regions
? Membership based network / political
organisation
? Aim: help our members to develop their
hydrogen and electro-mobility activities
Representing the interests of European regions and cities active in the
field of hydrogen, fuel cells and electro mobility
Enabling the share of
knowledge
Bringing
stakeholders
together
Industry

Collaboration
? Local authorities will have to deliver decarbonisation targets!
? Successful demonstration projects in Europe ? learnings can be
shared, many local authorities are facing the same challenges
? Transnational interoperability, transnational customer information
are essential for the development of zero-emission transport and
energy systems ? European cooperation is essential in these
sectors
? Local authorities have a purchasing power: creating the demand is
key
