IEA Hydrogen Implementing Agreement Efforts toward the commercialization of hydrogen
MissionThe mission of the IEA Hydrogen Program is to accelerate hydrogen implementation and widespread utilization.
VisionOur vision for a hydrogen future is based on clean sustainable energy supply of global proportions that plays a key role in all sectors of the economy.
Strategic PlanThe strategy of the IEA's Hydrogen Program is to facilitate, coordinate, and maintain innovative RD&D activities through international cooperation and information exchange. Seven areas are targeted: Technology, Energy Security, Environmental, Economic, Market, Deployment, and Outreach.

Goals and ObjectivesThe Goal of the Global Hydrogen Systems Analysis task is to perform
comprehensive technical and market analysis of hydrogen technologies and resources, supply and demand related to the projected use of hydrogen in a low-carbon world with sustainable and including intermittent energy sources.
The specific objectives of this task are: • to prepare authoritative analyses which can be used to answer questions about
hydrogen sources and utilization posed by the IEA HIA, the task members, the IEA, and government institutions;
• to update the assessment of hydrogen technology maturity and projections• to interface with other HIA tasks regarding data and R&D progress; • to collaborate with IEA (Paris) analysis processes and support the HIA Executive
Committee in the liaison with IEA analysts

10
Success Criteria for this Meeting
– Get to know each other, our expertise and interests– Establish roles and responsibilities for experts / Subtask leaders – Develop an overall Task Work Plan for approval of the
Executive Committee– Agree on approach and data requirements for Subtask A – Identify website provider– Address additional ExCo request (ESTAP)– Make (tentative) plans for next meetings: spring 2011 (Paris) and
fall 2011 (?)
11
Responsibilities of the Experts
In addition to the obligations enumerated in Article 8 of this Agreement, each Participant shall:
• Attend all Task meetings, and all Subtask meetings to which it contributes, and present status of the ongoing or completed work at such meetings.
• Provide the Operating Agent with a National Participation Letter, indicating their commitment for the duration of the task and the level of contribution to the Annex. The National Participation Letters in aggregate represent the National Participation Plan.
• Contribute to the collective efforts of the Task in accordance with the Programme of Work approved by the Executive Committee pursuant to Article 5(c) and the National Participation Plan; and
• Assist in the review of technical reports produced by the task.
12
Subtask A: Detailed AnalysesGlobal Hydrogen Resources
Overview • Authoritative analysis providing output from HIA and input to other activities
• Based on reduced carbon energy supply and utilization
• Global Hydrogen resources and demand• Regional differentiation-this is key!• What if? scenarios• Global trade implications
13
Subtask A: Working Session
• Overview – objectives and proposed approach• Input data required• Analysis / model demo• Group discussion• Planning session – tasking, timing, deliverables• Next steps
14
Subtask A. Detailed AnalysesGlobal Hydrogen Resources
Elements•Agree on fundamental assumptions for a low-carbon world
•Assess regional hydrogen resources around the globe
•Estimate projected demands for hydrogen
•Start with passenger vehicles as base case
•Using Dynamic Systems Modeling, examine resource flows in a time-varying global energy economy. What flows between nations? Some examples are raw materials such natural gas, biomass, platinum or other exotic materials, conversion technologies such as wind turbines or electrolyzers, or output such as hydrogen or electricity.
•Focus on impact of these global changes on IEA HIA participating countries.
•Evaluate cost impacts of limited resources as supply and demand change over time.
•Examine the unintended implications (advantages or disadvantages) on IEA HIA participating countries
15
Subtask A. Detailed AnalysesGlobal Hydrogen Resources
Expert skills required:
• systems modeling
• familiarity with national data and infrastructure roll-out scenarios
16
Global Impacts: What flows between nations?
Answer questions such as: how will a global transition to a new energy infrastructure affect energy and material flows? What are the implications on imports / exports? What are the potential cost impacts?
Regional differentiation

Subtask A. Detailed AnalysesGlobal Hydrogen Resources
Additional detailed analysis will build on the first analyses and model building effort aimed at investigating the different resources.
While a number of distinctly separate studies will be performed to answer specific questions, these studies will build on the work / modeling from the previous analysis.
20
Subtask A: Additional studies
• Near term market study• Reductions in carbon emissions based on various hydrogen scenarios
• Hydrogen and renewable energy • Hydrogen for large, utility scale energy storage• The possibilities for global trade and transport of hydrogen
