1 New Era of a Hydrogen Energy Society 27 th February 2018 Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry JAPAN

2 Significance of Realization of a Hydrogen Energy Society 1Energy Saving Use of fuel cells enables high energy efficiency. 2Energy Security Hydrogen can be produced from various primary energy sources, including unutilized energy sources such as by-product hydrogen, flaring gas, and brown coal; and renewable energy sources. Procuring these energy sources from areas of relatively low geopolitical risk leads to enhancing energy security, and using renewable energy promotes energy self-sufficiency. 3Environmental Load Reduction Hydrogen does not emit CO2 when consumed. Applying Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology to hydrogen production or using renewable energy enables a completely CO2-free system. 4Industrial Promotion Japan is ranked first in patent applications regarding fuel cells and is strong in this field. 1

15 Characteristics of Power to Gas (P2G) Technology Hydrogen Derived from Renewable Energy It is considered that a complex system of water electrolysis and hydrogen tank has high potential of application to the area of large scale and prolonged energy storage for the good reason that the complex system has small loss over time and high expandability such as hydrogen tank as compared with competing storage battery technologies in terms of advantage. It is expected that P2G can be a promising item as a countermeasure against problems related to power system interconnection during introduction and expansion of renewable energy in Japan in the future. Positioning of various electric power storage technologies Storage period methane flywheel Redox flow Lithium ion battery Water pumping Hydrogen Characteristics of energy storage using hydrogen (P2G) Advantageous to large scale and prolonged energy storage Impact from environmental conditions such as geography and geology is small.
