2 Million Euros Public R, D&D budgets for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells in 2008 Source: International Energy Agency (RD&D budgets), Energy Information Administration - EIA (Population), International Monetary Fund - IMF (GDP information)

3 Euro per million 90 GDP Public R, D&D budgets for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells per mio. of GDP in 2008 Source: International Energy Agency (RD&D budgets), Energy Information Administration - EIA (Population), International Monetary Fund - IMF (GDP information). Note: Expenditure on RD&D is measured in Euros, while GDP is measured in dollars.

23 The Challenge of Bringing New Energy Technologies to Market The green curve shows public support in bringing new technologies to market The red curve shows requirements in public funding to get to the market Valley of Death Research & Development Demonstration Pre- Commercial Phase Commercial Phase With Public Support Commercial Phase

24 Conclusions Denmark has a strong national Partnership for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells, strong national strategies, an efficient management structure and good regional cooperation. For the moment focus at deployment is important. We all have the challenge of getting fast to market. The markets are huge and there will be plenty of room for several different industrial stakeholders. So let us collaborate - with openness, trust, and mutual respect.
