The existing infrastructure for hydrogen supply in Europe is considered as an important prerequisite for the uptake of fuel cell and hydrogen technologies as it creates opportunities for supplying early adopters with the "fuel" to use these technologies. Roads2HyCom has generated a map of the existing European hydrogen and fuel cell infrastructure and its potential future development. This has been accomplished by mapping and analysing existing and future hydrogen resources and infrastructures, including industrially manufactured hydrogen, renewable and low carbon energy resources as well as existing and potential future distribution networks and demonstration projects. This study provides an independent, comprehensive data source for the planning of future large-scale demonstration projects.

The current status of existing infrastructure for hydrogen and fuel is captured in the European Hydrogen Infrastructure Atlas. The data of this atlas can be accessed through the Roads2HyCom Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Database.

In planning for the future uptake of hydrogen as an energy vector, it is of great importance to determine where future resources for the production of hydrogen can be expected. Hydrogen is often viewed as a "green" energy vector. However for this to be true, the hydrogen must be produced from a CO2-neutral energy resource. The report "Potential of Emerging and Future CO2-Neutral Hydrogen Sources on the European Scale" covers not only renewable energy sources for the production of hydrogen, but also conventional, CO2-neutral sources, like coal with CCS or nuclear technologies.

In order to link these new sources and future demand centres and applications, the report "Linking Distributed European Hydrogen Production Sources" investigates the potential barriers in the electricity grid development, the development and cost-barriers of hydrogen pipeline transport as well as the opportunities in storing renewable energies by means of hydrogen.

The report "Cost Models for Current and Future Hydrogen Production" presents a tool for estimating the cost of producing hydrogen and producing price predictions under varying scenarios and parameters.
