10 Torrance Example of station rollout: One portable refueler that can supply 50 kg/day One permanent station providing 100 kg/day One permanent station providing 200 kg/day Move portable fueler to new community One permanent 400 kg/day station One permanent 200 kg/day station 10

12 Transit Strategy Number of FCBs Number of FCVs

13 San Francisco Bay Area Program $45 Million 12 New Buses in 2009/ Transit Agencies 13

14 SF Bay Area Supply One mixed-use station providing 400/60 kg/day (FCB/FCV) One mixed-use station providing 400/60 kg/day (FCB/FCV) One FCV-only station providing 200 kg/day One mixed-use station providing 400/60 kg/day (FCB/FCV) One FCV-only station providing 400 kg/day One mixed-use station providing 400/60 kg/day (FCB/FCV) Two FCV-only stations providing a total of 600 kg/day 14

19 Does the Station Add capacity in one of the early market communities? Support automakers plans for customer locations? Have a plan to enhance customer service? Help bridge a distance between existing stations? Include new hydrogen storage or production technology? Provide renewable hydrogen? Provide fuel for non-vehicle applications? Provide opportunities for local business or jobs? 19

20 New Stations in

21 We ve Learned We need to build more stations, faster What worked in the past won t work in the future The business model is different The playing field isn t level Government participation is vital Strong advocates are needed 21

22 More Stations, Faster Santa Monica Irvine Torrance Newport Beach Other SoCAL Sacramento San Francisco LDV kg/day 0 (200) (400) (600) (800) (1,000)

23 The Future Plan and build multiple stations at a time Build out and link clusters Economies of scale Permitting efficiencies Community involvement $40 million allocated for 2009 and 2010 Sufficient stations to satisfy demand through 2012? 23

24 Different Business Model Can t yet sell H 2 by volume or weight Low initial customer demand Insurance is expensive On-site production changes supply chain Renewable H 2 costs more 24

25 The Playing Field No unit sales In California, H 2 must meet 33% renewable today Permits granted at local level Compared to statewide standards Funding streams Electricity public utilities Biofuels agriculture industry, VC funding Fuel stations are independently owned and operated, primarily by small business 25

26 Government Participation National leadership Effect of proposed DOE budget cut Effect of Germany and other announcements State regulations and incentives Low-carbon, non-petroleum alternative fuels Zero-emission vehicles need associated fuel stations Local champions Projects can get delayed at community level 26

27 Major Milestones In 2012 Regulations, standards and permitting practices are complete Station insurance is reasonably priced Station costs have decreased by at least 20% By 2014 Commercially viable technology will be in production vehicles California s first 1,000 kg/day station is open Hydrogen stations are able to cover 100% of operating costs Automakers are building their sales and service chains A second large transit agency has purchased fuel cell buses By 2017 Auto companies begin selling (vs. leasing) FCVs Station owners can cover recover costs of equipment, land, and operating costs Other states are following the California model for rolling out fuel cell vehicles, and stations are being built along major interstate freeways 27
