The Future of Hydrogen Seizing Today’S Opportunities The Future of Hydrogen Seizing today’s opportunities Report prepared by the IEA for the G20, Japan June 2019 The Future of Hydrogen Seizing today’s opportunities Report prepared by the IEA for the G20, Japan The Future of Hydrogen Foreword Foreword This is a critical year for hydrogen. It is enjoying unprecedented momentum around the world and could finally be set on a path to fulfil its longstanding potential as a clean energy solution. To seize this opportunity, governments and companies need to be taking ambitious and real- world actions now. We are very grateful to the government of Japan for its request under its presidency of the G20 that the International Energy Agency (IEA) prepare this important and timely report. Our study provides an extensive and independent assessment of hydrogen that lays out where things stand now; the ways in which hydrogen can help to achieve a clean, secure and affordable energy future; and how we can go about realising its potential. To help to get things moving, we have identified the most promising immediate opportunities to provide a springboard for the future. As the world’s leading energy authority covering all fuels and all technologies, the IEA is ideally placed to help to shape global policy on hydrogen. The rigorous analysis in this report was conducted in close collaboration with governments, industry and academia. This study on hydrogen is part of a comprehensive approach the IEA is taking to the global energy system. Last month, we published a report on the role of nuclear power in a clean energy system. We are also holding various high-level meetings to underscore the critical elements needed for a sustainable energy future – including a ministerial conference in Dublin this month on energy efficiency and another ministerial on systems integration of renewables in Berlin in October 2019. I very much hope our report on hydrogen will inform discussions and decisions among G20 countries, as well as those among other governments and companies across the world. I hope it will help to translate hydrogen’s current momentum into real-world action that sets hydrogen firmly on the path to becoming a significant enabler of a clean, secure and affordable energy future. Beyond this report, the IEA will remain focused on hydrogen, further expanding our expertise in order to monitor progress and provide guidance on technologies, policies and market design. We will continue to work closely with governments and all other stakeholders to support your efforts to make the most out of hydrogen’s huge potential. The IEA looks forward to continuing this journey together. Dr. Fatih Birol Executive Director International Energy Agency PAGE | 3 IEA. All rights reserved.

    Options of Natural Gas Pipeline Reassignment for Hydrogen: Cost Assessment for a Germany Case Study Simonas CERNIAUSKAS,1(1) Antonio Jose CHAVEZ JUNCO,(1) Thomas GRUBE,(1) Martin ROBINIUS(1) and Detlef STOLTEN(1,2) (1) Institute of Techno-Economic Systems Analysis (IEK-3), Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH, Wilhelm-Johnen-Str., D-52428, Germany (2) Chair for Fuel Cells, RWTH Aachen University, c/o Institute of Techno-Economic Systems Analysis (IEK-3), Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH, Wilhelm-Johnen-Str., D- 52428, Germany Abstract The uncertain role of the natural gas infrastructure in the decarbonized energy system and the limitations of hydrogen blending raise the question of whether natural gas pipelines can be economically utilized for the transport of hydrogen. To investigate this question, this study derives cost functions for the selected pipeline reassignment methods. By applying geospatial hydrogen supply chain modeling, the technical and economic potential of natural gas pipeline reassignment during a hydrogen market introduction is assessed. The results of this study show a technically viable potential of more than 80% of the analyzed representative German pipeline network. By comparing the derived pipeline cost functions it could be derived that pipeline reassignment can reduce the hydrogen transmission costs by more than 60%. Finally, a countrywide analysis of pipeline availability constraints for the year 2030 shows a cost reduction of the transmission system by 30% in comparison to a newly built hydrogen pipeline system.
