The document outlines the agenda and objectives of the Second Workshop PPS6 EDEN project in Lisbon, Portugal. The project aims to create a roadmap for integrating hydrogen into Portugal's energy system through stakeholder engagement. The workshop will focus on refining an initial vision for hydrogen's role, and receiving feedback on preliminary impact, transition and synthesis analyses to develop the final roadmap and action plan. The document provides background on hydrogen technologies, the project methodology, and a draft vision that outlines increasing roles for hydrogen production, distribution and use through 2020-2050.

2. Project Aim and
Workshop Objectives
• EDEN PPS6 Project Aim
– To create a roadmap and action plan for the
integration of hydrogen into the energy system in
Portugal
– CONSENSUS ie broad agreement via stakeholder
validation
• Workshop Objectives
– To present and refine the vision
– To present, discuss and refine the prelimenary results
and inputs
Second Workshop PPS6 EDEN, Lisboa, 15th October 2007
Why Hydrogen?
• Hydrogen and fuel cells have been recognised as an
important bridge moving towards sustainable energy
systems (HFCTP)
• Hydrogen is an energy carrier, as such it decouples
natural resources from energy use, like electricity
– Flexible, can be produced from any primary energy source and
used for most applications
– High efficiency levels of fuel cells
– Non polluting aspect of fuel cells make them relevant for climate
change mitigation

3. The Portugal Context
• Improve Security of Supply
– Decrease reliance on imported fuels (86% TPES)
– Especially important in the transport sector where 100% reliance on
imported fuels
– Ability to harness RES potential for purposes other than electricity
generation
– Scarcity of fossil fuels – PEAK OIL CONCEPT
• Promote Economic Competition
– Buffer from likely increased energy costs in a carbon constrained economy
– Job creation, manufacturing and services
• Ensure Environmental Sustainability
– National emission targets (Kyoto and post Kyoto)
– Local air pollution

5. Vision development
• Vision definition
– An elaboration of a desireable and (more or less)
plausible future.
– It emphasizes the benefits of hydrogen
– Used as a method to test the implications of various
policy actions and their timings. To test the impact via
models and methods of different policy and
technology choices.
– It is NOT A FORECAST!! Hence there can be no right
or wrong...
– Iterative process – feedback positively encouraged

Entry Phase
(until 2020)
• Low demand for Hydrogen
Feedstock & Production
– Sourced directly as by-product from industrial processes
– Produced from natural gas by steam methane reforming
– Produced onsite via electrolysis using energy from the electricity grid
– Produced onsite and central electrolysis using electricity from wind parks as well
as via biomass gasification
Transportation and Distribution
– Existing infrastructures used for transport – trucks
– Distribution via bespoke demonstration projects
End Use Applications
– Emerging market in portable applications and transportation sector (fleets, public
transport)
Second Workshop PPS6 EDEN, Lisboa, 15th October 2007

6. Transition Phase
(2020-2030)
• Growing demand for hydrogen
Feedstock & Production
– Increased demand enlarges the range of options for local and central hydrogen production,
as a result more efficient and larger scale forms of production are developed
– New options include energy from wave and wind power electrolysed centrally
– Scale up of biomass gasification
– Increase in number of units on-site electrolysis based on wind energy and solar PV
– The capture and storage of CO2 from central SMR installations and coal gasification plant
– Producing hydrogen centrally with electricity from the grid
Transportation and Distribution
– Transport via gaseous and liquid hydrogen trucks, growth in numbers
– Some early dedicated infrastructures (such as dedicated hydrogen pipelines) will be built
– The distribution centres from this phase are small in scale and located close to areas of high
demand, such as major urban centres
End Use Applications
– Transport and stationary applications for hydrogen are projected to begin to reach the market
during this time
Second Workshop PPS6 EDEN, Lisboa, 15th October 2007
Long term phase
(2030 – 2050)
• Massive demand for hydrogen
Feedstock & Production
– All existing primary energy sources and related production systems are ramped up to be
delivering on a large scale
– New options include solar thermal, import via ship and nuclear high temperature reactors
Transportation and Distribution
– dedicated pipeline becomes progressively the most attractive option for significant quantities
– transport by truck is preferred for smaller quantities.
– Distribution via refueling stations,for hydrogen cars, and distribution centres, through local
hydrogen pipelines, for the heating and cooling needs of individual households, buildings and
industry
– The refuelling stations are sited near urban centres and alongmain roads and the distribution
centres near urban and industrial areas.
End Use Applications
– End use of hydrogen in transport and stationary applications is widespread.
