The United Kingdom has announced its H2 Mobility program. This program has the goal of establishing a road map for fuel cell cars by the end of 2014-2015. The map is supposed to be finished by the end of 2012.
Mark Prisk, junior business minister: “We are bringing purpose, drive and the energy to the launch of this key green transport technology.” He continued by stating “We know this deadline is tight, but let's get some drive behind this idea.”
The road map has the declared aim of establish the customer needs, likely prices of fuel-cell vehicles, as well as what infrastructure and production scale will be needed for when those cars hit the road in 2015 or so.
The Transport Strategy Board will offer a grant of 7.5 million British pounds (nearly 11.6 million dollars) to top the green transport budged of 400 million British pounds (618 million dollars) that will support the H2 Mobility project.
Besides government activity, 13 companies have agreed to participate in the effort of establishing a hydrogen infrastructure in the UK. Important names like Toyota, Nissan, Vauxhall, or Tata are included in the company list. A memorandum of understanding has already been signed.
Vauxhall has made it clear that it has plans of releasing a fuel-cell car by 2015, so it has every interest to participate in the project.
At this point, some 550,000 tones of hydrogen are being produced in the UK, most of which goes towards industrial processes. Very little hydrogen makes it to the 4 H2 stations scattered across the UK.
