Hydrogen vehicles: a certain trajectory?

Agenda

● Context: the Hydrogen transition challenge

● Adoption structure for the vehicle

propulsion platform

● Reduced/partial models analysis

● Insights and future work

Modeling the hydrogen transition challenge - motivation

● Formal model literature on technology adoption

– diffusion (Bass ’69, Rogers ‘62)

– industry evolution

(Abernathy/Utterback ’78,…)

– learning/scale/spillover (…)

– increasing returns and lock-in

(Arthur ’89)

– energy modeling (Farrell ’03)time

Case 2: drivers and familiarity

● Endogenous adoption

● 4th order model

● Competition between entrant (e.g. hydrogen) and incumbent (e.g. ICE)

Conclusions / Insights

● Innovation systems require attention beyond mere acknowledgement of lock-in/dominance/…

● Identify role of particular loops/structures – Here we have modeled and analyzed the more interpretive side

adoption

● Can already identify policies on what prevents/ promotes diffusion– word-of-mouth through non-drivers

– less efficient hybrids could grow faster and takeover (as no infrastructure, spillover issues)

Future Steps

● Extend study in similar fashion– developments in infrastructure

– spillovers

– organizational/institutional increasing returns

● Historical analysis of the 19th century transition towards the horseless age

● Formulating research questions…
