“Due to the significant failure of road transport to reduce climate gas emissions since 1990 (net zero reduction), the AFIR (Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation) is a powerful regulatory instrument for the EU to roll out electric charging and H2 refuelling infrastructure on main long-distance corridors and at urban nodes. The analysis of the needs for a future heavy-duty truck H2 refuelling infrastructure shows that with an H2 refuelling station capacity of 1tH2/day with a flexibility of +/-90% (0.5t/d - 1.9t/d) until the early 2030s, sufficient refuelling of long-haul heavy-duty trucks is possible under the assumptions made.”

“It is a very big challenge to achieve the highest product safety even in large-scale industrial implementation with high quantities.”

Dr. Theo Maulbetsch, FUCHS LUBRICANTS GERMANY GmbH
“The presentation will show how engine oils can be adapted for hydrogen combustion engines to overcome the technical challenges while generating added value for the customer.”

Matthias Halbritter, Robert Bosch GmbH
“The presentation outlines the hydrogen injection system in the context of the current Bosch hydrogen strategy and provides insights into the current development process of the H2 injector for low-pressure direct injection.”

Siegfried Beck, Die Autobahn GmbH des Bundes
“For a conversion of the fleet to non-fossil drive types, the criteria of operating weight, range and operating requirement are important aspects for the choice of drive.”

Prof. Dr. Bernd Wiedemann, TU Berlin
“The lecture takes a critical look at the development of greenhouse gas emissions in Germany and therefore pleads for a technology-open and systemic view of energy systems and drive trains.”

Paul C. Miles, Sandia National Laboratories
“The outlook in the US for H2ICEs has not been good, but recent regulatory proposals have opened remarkable opportunities – provided key barriers related to infrastructure and legal authority can be overcome.”

Prof. Dr. Choongsik Bae, KAIST (Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology)
“This presentation shows the recent trend of hydrogen internal-combustion-engine research and development, both from private company and public research institute in Korea.”

Prof. Dr. Yasuo Moriyoshi, Chiba University
“International collaboration is now strongly demanded to realize CN ICE.”
