Abstract:
The main objective of Annex 5 is to get a better overall understanding ofhow fuel cell systems correspond with outer sources and connections and thus,
how they should be constructed in an optimal way to meet the user's
requirements from a technical and economical point of view. The initial 2
years phase of this Annex, with participation from seven countries (Sweden,
Norway, Germany, The Netherlands, Italy, Japan and the United Kingdom), is
concluded by the end of 1994. Sweden was the Operating Agent. The work is
divided into different sub-tasks dealing with economical aspects, market
aspects, technological aspects (technical requirements), modelling and
environmental aspects. In this report the market aspects of advanced fuel
cell systems are dealt with. Information from the individual countries has
been collected, analyzed and compared in order to arrive at a consistent
overall picture for the market and applications of fuel cell systems. The
market aspects concerned the potential market size for different
applications, including on-site, dispersed and centralized fuel cell units as
well as typical unit size and competing technologies in the participating
countries. 12 tabs.
