On behalf of NOW GmbH and in close cooperation with the Clean Energy Partnership (CEP), Spilett new technologies, LBST, LIFTE H2, ZBT and ZSW have conducted a comprehensive study on the regulatory framework for hydrogen refueling infrastructure. The aim was to develop a sound understanding of the technological, developmental and regulatory challenges of various refueling technologies and refueling paths.
The focus was on the legal basis for research, development and market activation. The relevant technical, normative, legal and safety-related consequences for different filling station concepts were analyzed. In addition to road transport, synergies with rail, inland shipping and aviation were also taken into account.
For the first time, a comprehensive overview is provided of which standards and regulations need to be adapted, which regulatory hurdles exist and where there is a need for targeted research and development in order to enable a safe, verifiable and future-proof refueling infrastructure.
The study thus creates the basis for a continuously updated compendium that is regularly adapted to new technological and regulatory developments.
