Commercialisation: joint JU FCH /private sector
• 88 million euro in demo-type projects for energy applications
• Energy projects still strongly R&D oriented
• 28 demo projects
– 12 field demonstrations
– 16 proof-of-concept, components, diagnostics and control
• Currently distributed in 3 different application areas:
– Hydrogen Production and Storage
– Stationary applications and CHP
– Early markets (Back-up power and off-grid systems)
• Almost 50% of the budget committed to ENERGY oriented projects

Introduction to ene.field
• ene.field is the largest European demonstration of the latest smart energy solution for private homes, fuel cell micro-CHP.
• It will deploy up to 1,000 Fuel Cell heating systems in 8 key European member states.
• Project duration of 5 years. Systems will be demonstrated for 2 to 3 years.
• Outputs of the project include: Detailed performance data, lifecycle cost and environmental assessments, market analysis, commercialisation strategy.
Countries where units are currently expected to be installed

The consortium brings together 26 partners including:
• the leading European FC micro-CHP developers,
• leading European utilities,
• leading research institutes,
• partners in charge of dissemination and coordination of the project.
ene.field is a European platform for FC mCHP
The Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking (FCH JU) is
committing c. €26 million to ene.field under the EU's 7th
Framework Programme for funding research and
development.

Field trials overview

WP1 is the demonstration WP and contains all on the ground trial activities with a view to deploying FC mCHP units from 10 field trials across Europe
This WP produces data for other work packages and for final reports.

• ene.field has successfully installed approx. 400 FC mCHP in a range of house types across 8 European markets – performance data is being collected and will be analysed in the forthcoming phase of the project
• Germany is the strongest early market, this is due to regional funding opportunities, tolerance of higher cost heating systems and a more developed manufacturer and installer base, among other factors
• Route to market via utilities has proven very difficult; less finance available for demonstration projects – interest in only small numbers of units and limited co-financing
• System capital costs are the major challenge for growth of the market (running costs are competitive with incumbents).
• Increased manufacturing volumes is expected to be the biggest driver of capital cost reductions, which will require continued public funding support
Lessons learned - field trials

Lessons learned – Supply chain analysis
Main drivers of cost reduction identified in the ene.field supply chain study
• Reduce system complexity and component count
• Standardisation of component lines
• Automation of manufacturing
• Increasing volumes
• Greater supply chain competition
Supply chain report – Recommendations
• On-going field trial collaboration and standardisation where appropriate
• Define level and nature of subsidies required for successful roll-out (e.g. Roland Berger study for JU FCH)
• Form European industry group to support collaboration, lobby and secure additional funding
• Develop strategic partnerships – component suppliers, utilities etc.

• > 350 units have been installed across the 8 active field trials as of October 2015 in 8 countries: DE, UK, FR, DK, AU, CH, LUX and IT
• The bulk of the units are deployed in Germany,. This trend is expected to be continued as more units are installed. This is due to the existing financial supports in place locally.

Impact of FCmCHP deployment on network loads
Next steps
• Continuation and acceleration of deployment of units across the field trials
• Technical performance monitoring across all field trials, including 10% of units with detailed monitoring. First monitoring data to pass through the clean room and made available to analysis partners and the FCH JU
• Further analysis of customer perception through pre- and post-installation surveys
• Lifecycle analysis (LCA) and lifecycle cost analysis (LCC)
• Market growth projections and detailed modelling of FC mCHP impacts on European electricity systems
• Development of policy recommendations reflecting the lessons learned from the project and the requirements for commercialisation of FC mCHP across Europe
• Implementing the project dissemination plan, including external communication via tools such as the project website, information packs for householders, press releases and key stakeholder engagement activities

European Supply Chain Analysis Report

the main limiting factor for the development of the supplychain is the production volume that will lead to a reductionin the final cost of the systems either by allowing more costeffective outsourcing strategies with suppliers or throughincreased economies of scales
Position Paper onRegulations Codes &
Standards24/01/2014
the main barriers blocking the FC-based microCHPtechnology are non-homogeneity of C&S Europeanframework and some legislatives indications fromRegulation Authorities

Issues often relate to the increased cost due torequirements of new electric meters, differences in the inletgas pressure when installing in different gas networks aswell as the extensive amount of forms for feed in allowanceand taxes that must be performed before export to thepower grid is allowed.
