Klaus Bonhoff| NOW | JHFC Seminar| 1.03.2011 | 1 Programs for Market Preparation of Electric Mobility

The governmental E-mobility activities strive for electrification based on three major pillars

Powertrain electrification: • increases efficiency

• has potential for CO2-free mobility

Electric Mobility

Plug-in (PHEV) Hydrogen and Hybrid-Vehicles and Battery Fuel Cell (road/rail) Electric Vehicles Vehicles (FCV) (BEV)

Electrification relies on the key technologies of battery-electric and fuel cells

• Two successive Phases defined

• Phase 1: 2009 – 2011 • Technico-economical evaluation of the feasibility to deploy a network of HFS alongside the expected deployment of FCVs in Germany by 2015 (2009 – 2010) • Definition of the future Consortium Agreement Contract / Partners negotiation phase (2011) • Deployment of new HFS supported by the German Administration (Konjunkturpaket II subsidy scheme)

• Phase 2: 2011+ • Implementation of the hydrogen retail infrastructure by parties participating in the consortium
