Abstract:
Hydrogen is seen as one of the energy carriers that have the potential to enable a transition towards a sustainable energy system. Special interest for hydrogen is discernible with the car industry. Currently, barriers like the high cost of fuel cells, institutional barriers and the absence of a fine-meshed infrastructure prevent the widespread application of hydrogen technologies. Apart from commitment by the industry, the barriers for establishing a full-fledged hydrogen economy require support from governments and involvement of the general public. In this report we aim to provide effective policy support tools for the deployment of a hydrogen infrastructure in the Netherlands.
