Value_H - Hydrogen efficient value chains for green mobility in the South Baltic area
According to analysis conducted by International Energy Agency (2020) transportation accounts for 24% of global CO2 emissions from fuel combustion, of which three quarters is road traffic. These emissions should be reduced significantly, especially in urban areas. Hydrogen powered vehicles may be used for that purpose. However, there are concerns about the costs and effectiveness of Fuel Cell Vehicles implementation and operation in SB area. Hydrogen is a clean fuel, ecological alternative to other kinds of fuels. It’s usage allows to support the EU’s commitment to reach carbon neutrality by 2050. It is forecasted that the share of hydrogen in Europe’s energy mix is projected to grow from the current less than 2% to 13-14% by 2050 (FCH JU (2019) Hydrogen Roadmap Europe; Moya et al. 2019, JRC116452). However, there is a lack of common frame to reference for possibility to introduce the vehicles powered by hydrogen in cities, as well as difficulties to assess the potential efficiency of these vehicles implementation. Therefore, the value chains for the hydrogen efficient usage in SB area should be analysed in detail, as well as possibilities of infrastructure development to power these vehicles have to be identified clearly. The legal aspects related to usage of hydrogen in SB area should be investigated within the seed money project to define the specific focus on the activities that will be outlined in final project application submitted for the regular call of South Baltic Programme. These investigations and activities could promote hydrogen usage and create the opportunities for its faster implementation in countries of Baltic Sea area.
