Fuel cells and hydrogen applications: the new frontier of sustainable mobility
General context
Security of energy supply: Transport - largest oil consumer: 55% and rising Bulk of production in unstable regions New oil reserves expensive and polluting High oil import bill: Up to 1 billion per day in 2011 Trade balance deficit: ~ 2.5 % of GDP CO2 emissions from the transport sector: 25% of total EU CO2 emissions and the only sector rising Prerogative for EU transport industry: Maintain its global leadership
