1. For the diversification of energy sources and CO2 reduction, electricity and hydrogen become important energy sources. The early commercialization of e-mobility is an urgent matter.
2. Electric powered vehicles (battery EV/ hydrogen FCEV) enable the diversification of energy sources and zero CO2 emissions during driving.
3. The popularization of hydrogen FCEVs requires ; 1) Vehicle marketability 2) Hydrogen infrastructure development 3) Increased social acceptance of various energy sources
4. The technological development of hydrogen FCEVs has been progressing and the cost reduction is being promoted. Towards the beginning of commercialization in 2015, expect the establishment of infrastructure and early market of hydrogen FCEVS. TODAY for TOMORROW
