Electrolytic generated
hydrogen for automotive
and maritime applications.

Hydrogen Project
n 2014, the transport sector was
responsible for 23% of total greenhouse
gas emissions in the european Union (eU).
During the same year, 13% of that sector's
emissions came from the maritime segment, a number that is expected to rise during the coming years. the transport sector's share of renewable
energy in 2014 was just 5.9%, mostly comprising biodiesel and bioethanol fuel. when we compare this to electricity generated in the eU from renewable sources, at 25.4%,
it is clear that electricity generation is leading by a significant margin. electrification is a solution that will help
reduce the transport sector's reliance on hydrocarbonbased fuels. new energy infrastructures such as hydrogen

refueling stations are needed to decarbonize the transport sector. this article describes the Island hydrogen project, which introduced and tested new solutions
to produce and use hydrogen as a fuel for vehicles
and vessels.
worldwide, the primary companies in the automotive
industry have already developed fuel-cell electric vehicles (FceV). Major improvements from one generation to
the next have resulted in hydrogen vehicles with range
and reliability parameters comparable to conventional
vehicles. the basic principle of an Fc is that hydrogen
combines with the oxygen from air in the Fc stack and
produces an electric current, which then powers the
electric motors. the short-term energy balance between
the Fc and the electric motors is facilitated using a battery. If the battery capacity is much larger than the Fc
capacity, then the Fc has the role of extending the range
