About IPHE
Priorities
IPHE has recently established a new set of strategic priorities and is structuring the organization's future activities based around these four areas of focus:
- Accelerating the market penetration and early adoption of hydrogen and fuel cell technologies and their supporting infrastructure
- Policy and regulatory actions to support widespread deployment
- Raising the profile with policy-makers and the public
- Monitoring hydrogen, fuel cell and complementary technology developments
Results
Since IPHE was formed, the organization has succeeded in establishing an effective operational structure to facilitate international collaboration and networking both among researchers and at the highest levels of government. Through IPHE, nearly all partner countries have either completed or initiated roadmaps or national strategies for hydrogen and fuel cell R&D.
IPHE Key Accomplishments
- Endorsement of 30 international collaborative projects covering a broad spectrum of topics including demonstrations; fuel cells; hydrogen production; hydrogen storage; regulations, codes & standards; transmission and distribution; and socioeconomics of hydrogen
- Organization of workshops and conferences that brought together more than 500 technical experts across more than 25 countries to identify key areas for R&D on issues ranging from hydrogen production to utilization
- Development of a “Priority Scorecard” that identifies key challenges, priorities, and opportunities for international cooperation
