5 Competences of Regional Council of Skåne Public health care (93 % of the total budget), Culture (1 %) Public transport (5 %) Regional development (1 %) Employs around people, mostly in health care Boarding a regional train in the city of Lund, photo: Ola Lindberg

6 Climate and sustainable energy work in Regional Council of Skåne Strategic program for climate issues in Skåne together with municipalities, authorities and organisations Fossil fuel free Skåne 2020 Increased use and production of biogas, wind power, solar energy and other renewable energy Enhanced energy efficiency Strengthen the market for renemable fuel and vehicles Smart grids, energy storage? Roadmap for biogas

8 Fossil fuel free Skåne 2020 Our goal: no fossil fuel for transportation by 2020 Buses - Biogas - Bio diesel - Electricity Cars - Biogas - Electricity battery, fuel cell

9 Next Move - cooperation for deployment of zero emission vehicles Facilitates cooperation across borders to meet strategic challenges like purchasing and service, for the regions and municipalities that want to become early users of zero emission vehicles Project period: 1 April September 2014 The project partnership includes public organizations from the program area Budget: approx 6 m out of which 4 m goes to investment The project is co-financed by the EU program Interreg IVA Öresund-Kattegat-Skagerrak

10 Project Partnership - cooperation for deployment of zero emission vehicles Project Partners Associated Partners More associated partners are welcome! Co-funding

11 Areas of Collaboration Operational collaboration: MARKETING Operational collaboration: PROCUREMENT Operational collaboration: MAINTENANCE Operational collaboration: TRAINING Strategic collaboration: ANALYSIS Strategic collaboration: PLANING Collaboration within these areas will support regions and municipalities within the ÖKS-area to reach critical mass, competence, organisational structure and competitiveness to realise their ambition to be early adaptors of zero emission vehicles

12 Project Result: Region of Skåne procures two Hyundai ix35 FCEV As a public organization Region Skåne supports the development and use of hydrogen technologies. It is a strategic development issue in line with the vision of Skåne as a Green valley" for the future cleantech industry. It is important that the question of hydrogen refuelling stations and hydrogencars does not become a catch-22. Thus by procuring Skåne's first hydrogen cars through the project Next Move, Region Skåne pushes the development of a hydrogen infrastructure, which in turn can generate more vehicles. In this way we, as a public organization, take the lead and in a responsible manner pave way for future opportunities. Oddvar Fiskesjö, Head of department of Environmental strategies at Region Skåne

13 Hyundai ix35 facts 1 kg hydrogen costs ~EUR 9 1 kg = approx 100 km Filling capacity - 5,6 kg Driving distance ~500 km

14 Project Result: Copenhagen procures multiple Hyundai ix35 FCEV In line with its ambitious climate gas emission targets for the city, Copenhagen have finalised its procurement of fuel cell cars in the Next Move project. Engaged in a number of international projects, the Copenhagen fleet of FCEVs is growing significantly.

15 Project Result: Increased interest and knowledge Carried out nomerous events and meetrings where participators have been able to try fuel cell cars and busses, have boosted interest and built knowledge among decision makers as well as the public.

16 Next Move - What s next? Mobile fuelling station in Malmö by end of the year Hydrogen infrastructure strategy for Sweden (part of the HIT-project)

17 Arjeplog Making Scandinavia one of the first regions in Europe where hydrogen is available and used in a network of refuelling stations. HRS In operation Planning/construction Strategic location

18 Introduction to: Fact-based Swedish National Study for Hydrogen as Vehicle Fuel Version The study is done in agreement with the Swedish Transport Administrations and is part of the larger TEN-T-project Hydrogen Infrastructure for Transport (HIT).
