What does EU policy says about it?
Security of Gas Supply Regulation (Feb 2016)
▪ key role of gas in transition to low carbon future by 2030
▪ using gas more intelligently and efficiently
▪ first ever H/C strategy:
▪ buildings and industry accounts for half of the EU’s energy consumption
▪ “innovative highly efficient technologies that quickly approach market-
readiness”… that could play a role in the “replacement of old heating systems”.
Clean Energy Package (Nov 2016)
▪ review key legislation including EED and the EPBD
▪ EC proposals for EU target of 30% for energy efficiency by 2030
▪ Market Design Initiative provides a framework for a level playing field
for all flexibility solutions in the electricity grid
Second Report on the State of the Energy Union (Feb 2017)
▪ SWD on Energy storage: energy storage, including H2 storage key to
low carbon transition

What have we achieved and where are we heading?
• Efficiencies: up to 60% ŋe />95% ŋtotal
• Lifetime: degradation is well understood, >40,000 hours
• Manufacturing: from lab to semi-automated manufacturing lines
• Shift to fully automated manufacturing lines happening
• Large scale demonstrations ->track record -> market confidence
• Investors are gaining confidence
• New/innovative business models being implemented
• Further cost reduction are possible
– Continue supporting research for next generation of products
– Help market to increase demand / policy support / market mechanisms
