Assessing the international position of EU's research and technological development and demonstration (RTD&D) on hydrogen and fuel cells

This report presents the results of the ESTO study "Assessing the International position of EU's Research and Technological Development and Demonstration (RTD&D) on Hydrogen and Fuel Cells". It is conceived as a scoping document supporting activities of the EU Technology Platform on Hydrogen and Fuel Cells. The study examines the worldwide RTD scenario in hydrogen and fuel cells and is geared towards extracting implications for EU research policy and strategy and outlining areas for further research. The SWOT analysis applied has enabled a clearer picture to emerge of how EU RTD&D in hydrogen and fuel cells compare today.
