Representing the UK Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Industry Purpose UK Fuel Cell Roadmap • to accelerate the development and deployment of fuel cell technologies within the UK; and • to ensure that the UK derives maximum benefit from this process. …. . Focusing on actions and outcomes. …. . For the whole UK community: industry, the research community, Government and society. …. The start of an ongoing process of collaboration. synnogy

Representing the UK Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Industry Workshop 1 Processes (1) • Objectives: Identify key challenges facing the development and deployment of fuel cells in the UK. • Detail: Prioritise and group challenges where possible. … The challenges should reflect areas where there are greatest opportunities for the UK. …. . They may also reflect current gaps which the UK community considers should be overcome. synnogy

Representing the UK Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Industry Workshop 1 Processes (2) The identification of challenges took place in 5 separate groups, each of which focused on a specific ‘challenge question’ around fuel cell development and deployment in the UK: 1) What are the technology development challenges facing the UK? 2) What are the public procurement challenges facing the UK? 3) What are the market development challenges facing the UK? 4) What are the regulatory and policy challenges facing the UK? 5) What are the skills and training challenges facing the UK? synnogy

Representing the UK Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Industry Workshop 2 Processes (1) • Objectives: Identify the strategies and actions needed to overcome the challenges facing the development and deployment of fuel cells in the UK. • Detail: securing stakeholder buy-in on the steps required, their timescales and the champions where possible. • Draft outputs proposed to stimulate debate and accelerate outcomes synnogy

Representing the UK Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Industry Lessons learned (1) • • • Different approaches suit different types of Roadmap A steering group is invaluable to confirm methods and add legitimacy Processes which stimulate input from all contributors are valuable. Wider engagement leads to greater buy-in. Providing draft material for development and revision helps to focus discussions and facilitate progress synnogy

Representing the UK Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Industry Lessons learned (2) • • • Achieving consensus enhances the impact of the Roadmap The detailed nature of Roadmap outcomes can be both a blessing and curse If defining actions, specifying timings and ‘owners’ is important Local factors will determine the extent to which these actions can be driven forward. Knowledge of the sector can help a workshop leader to optimise the value of the session. synnogy
