Life Cycle Cost analysis report
(si apre in una nuova finestra)
ERM/Element Energy will develop a cost model of trucks operating with Electric, Fuel cell plug in hybrid and diesel (EURO VI) drivetrains. This will account for scale of production, fuel costs, duty cycles and regional variations. In this way, the work will identify the accessibility of different markets to the technology over different timescales, and will thus indicate the near-term focus markets across Europe. This will be gathered into a report and presented to the FCH JU.
Final project brochure
(si apre in una nuova finestra)
Throughout the project, a project brochure summarising the key details and findings of the project will be maintained. The final version of this will be submitted as a deliverable at the end of the project.
Report on the financial and regulatory barriers to implementing the business model
(si apre in una nuova finestra)
the partners will assess the potential barriers to the implantation of these business models. These barriers will be financial, but will also include issues relating to the way waste contracts are procured and hence the way in which the waste to hydrogen model could be best realised. The partners will then summarise these barriers in a report making recommendations on:•Supportive policy •Contractual arrangements •Regulatory issues •Practical issues The final report will be issued in M81.
Lessons learnt report on the certification process
(si apre in una nuova finestra)
The consortium manufacturers will prepare a lessons learnt report which will set out the most important aspects of the certification process, including:•Relevant standards: this will list the most important standards and specifications required for certification of fuel cell refuse vehicles in the countries involved in the project and will provide an overview of how the consortium’s vehicles could comply with these standards.•Key issues: any particularly / unnecessarily prohibitive requirements that are encountered in the certification process.The report will then be made available to the FCH JU in order to guide future commercialisation projects and next steps.
Life Cycle Environmental analysis report
(si apre in una nuova finestra)
This LCA will benchmark the environmental performance of hydrogen fuelled refuse vehicles against battery and diesel alternatives and will consider member state variations, future gazing efficiency improvements in both production lines and technology, and fuel production pathways.
Market Analysis
(si apre in una nuova finestra)
a high level market survey will be conducted using the tool developed in task 7.1. This will look at the opportunity for this business model to be expanded across Europe, based on a series of factors and scenarios:•Vehicle market and policies•Hydrogen-from-waste production market•Overall-market for Waste-to-Wheel business caseThis analysis will be written up into a public report which will be issued to the FCH JU in month 81 of the project
Framework for standardisation of FC integration
(si apre in una nuova finestra)
CEA will produce a framework for opportunities to standardise the integration of fuel cell systems into electric trucks. This will include failure mode effects analysis; Hazards and operability; comparison with other drive-trains outocomes of functional tests and experiences in the field. An overview of the dos and don'ts will be set out in a report.
Market and policy case analysis
(si apre in una nuova finestra)
Here, Element Energy/ERM will bring toegether the reports produced in task 4.4 to develop an overall commercialisation pathway for the technology. This will involve a holistic approach, covering several key aspects such as policies, economics in the analysis leading to recommendations of how to incorporate the vehicles into the fleets of other cities, and to expand the participating cities' fleets.
