7th National Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Conference
From Policy to Practice
Date: 10 December 2009
Location: Conference Centre Papendal, Arnhem, Nederland.
Policy can be a very powerful accelerator for innovation. In a time where hydrogen and fuel cell technology seem to be at a level of acceptable specifications, policy has to be developed in all application domains in order to create a marketplace.
Clustering of the demand side will stimulate the manufacturing industry and drive the cost reduction efforts. The demand side is created and accelerated by a transparent, coherent and consistent policy on an European, national, regional and local level. Policy is essential for the creation of a mature market that is vital for large scale hydrogen infrastructure and fuel cell application.
