OVERVIEW

Guidelines for Delivering Fuel Cell Bus Projects

CHIC (Clean Hydrogen in European Cities) is a major European project deploying a fleet of fuel cell electric buses and their associated hydrogen refuelling stations.

This document outlines detailed information for EU transit authorities and bus operators, assessed from the March 2016 CHIC project, including:

• Fuel cell bus technology benefit within fleet operations
• Compliance with upcoming EU air quality regulations and legislations on CO2 reduction
• Typical costs and funding strategy for fuel cell bus projects
• Project management - planning structure

The research leading to these guidelines received funding from the EU 7th Framework Program for the Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Joint Technology Initiative. Read now to find out what's next for the sector.
