① Why Japan? ② How is this institutionalised? ③ What’s happening now? ④ Implications

Outline

The purpose is to provide a snapshot of Japan’s “hard approach” toward H2 energy system’s development

Plan to introduce H2

Japan’s government and industry have jointly decided to implement a

Hydrogen Society plan, starting in 2015, with completion by or

beyond 2040.

MAJOR ACTORS

The main stakeholders within the process of the Hydrogen Energy Infrastructure development in Japan are the state, represented by the governments of the national, prefectural and municipal levels, large industrial companies, financial corporations. The National Government is concerned on general administration and organisation

• f the comprehensive R&D process. There are several institutions under the

umbrella on the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organisation (NEDO), in which business is involved at voluntary basis to deal with all aspects of the hydrogen energy technological chain. For the 2015-2020 planning term there are three major themes:

• Technology Development for the Realization of Hydrogen Society
• Technology Development for Large-Scale Hydrogen Systems
• Demonstration of the Hydrogen Supply Chain by Organic Chemical

Energy end-use: buildings

National Target to 2030: 5.3 mln units for 52 households The METI states the price of a “polymer electrolyte fuel cell” should be reduced from subsidised ¥1.42 million (2016) to ¥800,000 by 2019 ( ~10 680 $/kW), and of a solid fuel cell from ¥1.77m to ¥1m by 2021 ( ~20 000 $/kW). For market prices below the reference price, the rate of subsidy will go down to approximately 5%. (METI, feb 2018)

Energy end-use: buildings

Without subsidies, an Ene-Farm sells for about $19,500. With combined subsidies from the central and Tokyo governments, it can be purchased for around 1.4 million yen (~$13,600; subsidies cover 30 percent of the price).

100 fuel cell buses as part of its aim to realize a “hydrogen society” by 2020.

Has been confirmed that methylcyclohexane (MCH) can be hydrogenated with toluene with yields of over 99%, while hydrogen is produced from the same MCH with yields of more than 98% through the dehydrogenation process.

SPERA HYDROGEN. SPERA derives from the Latin word for “hope”

Electrolysers

Hydrogen technology has funding of ¥8.9 billion ($83 million) designated for “hydrogen supply chain utilising unutilised energy.” Other measures directly related to hydrogen involve subsidies for household fuel cell introduction (¥7.6 billion / $71 million) and hydrogen station improvement “for promotion of fuel cell vehicles” (¥5.6 billion / $52 million)

In December 2017 “the Japanese government . . . approved an updated hydrogen strategy which appears to give ammonia the inside track in the race against liquid hydrogen (LH2) and liquid organic hydride (LOH) energy carrier systems”.

IMPLICATIONS FOR THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION

• The development of hydrogen energy infrastructure will makes it possible to

create a new type of energy carrier for the consumers of energy services, which is an effective supplement to electricity.

• The development of hydrogen energy infrastructure is aimed at priority

displacement of motor fuel in transportation and reduction of buildings' electricity and fuel consumption through the development of distributed generation.

• The use of hydrogen as an energy carrier makes it possible to increase the

capacity utilisation factor for renewables by means of alternative technologies

• utside electric power systems, as well as to create new consumer markets for

renewable energy by reducing the demand for oil, coal and natural gas.

IMPLICATIONS FOR THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION (2)

• The production of hydrogen from hydrocarbon feedstocks will remain

substantially more economical for several decades. Thus, the growth of hydrogen consumption as an energy carrier for end-use energy consumers will affect the traditional energy markets to a very small extent.

• Since Japan is a technological and economic leader for the industrialised East

Asian economies, including China, similar trends will be inherent in the entire East Asian region.

• As a result of the innovative equipment’s market creation, the hydrogen energy

infrastructure provides new opportunities for the Russian business and researchers.
