HYAPPROVAL Uniformization of Hydrogen
refuelling station approval processes

• Facts
• EIHP2 has succeeded in developing draft
  regulations for on board LH2 and CGH2 storages
• EIHP2 has not finalized the refuelling station
  draft for regulation
• With the return of experience of the CUTE
  project, approval procedures for installing and
  operating refuelling stations have been extremely
  painful and there have been as many approaches
  and safety requirements as projects
• Objectives of the project
• Finalize the draft for regulation of refuelling
  stations
• Get approval feedback from existing projects such
  as CUTE
• Elaborate an EU-uniform  handbook  for
  approval of Hydrogen refuelling stations
• Test this handbook on one virtual refuelling
  station (same design installed in at least 4
  different EU countries
• Face US / Japanese standardization committees
  with a critical size

Consortium

• As of today (in expression of interest)
• See logos (order and size of representation is
  random)
• Balanced in terms of
• Geographic distribution
• Competences
• Most are member of former CUTE / EIHP / ECTOS
  projects and current HYSAFE NoE
• Envisaged final consortium should include
• Representative of state regulation authorities
  and local authorities
• Notified bodies
• Fire departments
• City councils
• EU25 member states to initiate the H2 awareness
  in those countries

Approach to reach the project goals

• Double entry leading organization
• By country, as we would like to have as many
  refuelling stations as countries. We will need to
  have per country the following partners safety
  / approval / Car / infrastructure / fire brigade
  with a leader
• By work packages (ie field of activities) with
  leader recognized in their area all over the
  countries
• Description of Work packages
• Refuelling station definition and requirements
• Handbook
• Infrastructure and deployment
• Safety
• International cluster activities
• Vehicle requirements
• Hardware is not a must, but results of
  preexisting projects (CUTE / EIHP / Hysafe) or
  current projects will be used
