a European Framework for the generation of guarantees of origin - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

CertifHy – Developing a European Framework for the generation of guarantees of origin for green hydrogen CertiHy event: October 19th 2016, Brussels Project co-finance by the FCH JU The research leading to these results has received under FP7: funding from the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013) for the Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Joint Technology Initiative under grant agreement n ° 633107 - Duration: 24 months (Nov 1st 2014 to October 30th 2016 )

H2 pops up as an energy carrier for storing renewables

Worldwide H2 markets 3

Power to Gas is coming up 4

Hydrogen Mobility is becoming a reality Ambitious national roadmaps for The first commercial vehicles deployment Toyota Mirai Hyundai ix35 SymbioFC Kangoo H2 Many bus manufacturers 5

CertifHy will boost demand and supply of green hydrogen throughout Europe: by the creation of a market for green H2 • Objective: Define a widely acceptable definition of green hydrogen ; and Determine how an EU wide robust GO scheme should be designed and implemented. • Consortium Step by step consultation process • Affiliated Partners • Other Partners: Associations, NGO’s, Policy Makers,.. “Supply green H2 where is not produced, improving the business case for 6 green H2”

CertifHy – work program WP7 : Project Management and Administration Project leader: Hinicio Robust + Transparent system WP4 : Definition of a WP2 : Definition of Rationale of green H2 new framework of “Green Hydrogen” guarantees of origin for Project leader: TÜV SÜD WP1 : Generic market "green" hydrogen outlook for green Project leader: TÜV SÜD Common definition hydrogen with all stakeholders Project leader: Hinicio WP5 : Roadmap for the WP3 : Review of existing implementation of an EU- platforms for GO wide GO scheme for Project leader: ECN green hydrogen Lessons learnt from Project leader: ECN other initiatives Enabling implementation Buy – in WP6 : Stakeholder Engagement & Communication Project leader: Hinicio 7

« No GOs should be allowed for biomass co-fired coal power plants » 90 % 10 % 10 %  Overall emissions of a production facility issuing GO’s should not exceed benchmark

“GHG emissions need to be considered”: “ Low carbon" = at least 60% less emissions than BAT benchmark Non- Not Low-carbon Renewable Benchmark emissions Renewable & Not Low- intensity threshold & Not Low- Carbon (= 91 g CO 2 eq /MJ H2 )* Carbon H2 H2 - 60%** Low-carbon threshold (= 36.4 g CO 2 eq /MJ H2 ) Renewable Non- carbon & Low- Renewable & Low- Carbon H 2 Low-Carbon H2 Renewable Non renewable energy energy * Best Available Technology = Natural gas steam methane reforming >95% of hydrogen market 9 ** cfr RED reduction requirement for biofuels in 2018

IDENTITY PRESERVED Sustainable palm oil from a single identifiable certified source is kept separately from ordinary palm oil throughout supply chain.

Sustainable palm oil from different certified sources is kept separate from ordinary palm oil throughout supply chain

MASS BALANCE Sustainable palm oil from certified sources is mixed with ordinary palm oil throughout supply chain. Source: http://www.rspo.org/

GREEN PALM / BOOK & CLAIM The chain is not monitored for the presence of sustainable palm oil. Manufacturers and retailers can buy a GreenPalm certificate from a RSPO-certified grower Source: http://www.rspo.org/

So why a book and claim system ? Source: http://greenpalm.org

What is a Guarantee of Origin (GO) system? 17

Organization of the GO Scheme

CertifHy perimeter: any GO scope is limited to the production Storage CertifHy Scope Out of Scope Transport Power – to - Gas Power – to - Chemical Power – to - Power Power – to - Mobility 19

A CO2 audit will tell you what's low carbon and what's not 26

Renewable hydrogen will be as green as the energy used for its production Biomass input Electricity input 20 GJ 10 GJ Renewable *: 3 GJ Hydrogen Renewable *: 20 GJ production Non-renewable: 7 GJ Non-renewable H2 Total energy input : 30 GJ 23% Non-renewable: 7 GJ Renewable H2 23% 77% Renewable: 23 GJ 77% 27 * Via GO or direct feedstock
