1 Fukuoka Hydrogen Strategy Hy-Life Project Oct 29th, 2012 Fukuoka Strategy Conference for Hydrogen Energy Fukuoka Prefecture Government / Fukuoka Strategy Conference for Hydrogen Energy

Fukuoka s s competitive advantages in the hydrogen energy field Kyushu University s world-leading intellectual resources The only institute in Japan undertaking the R&D of hydrogen application

In July 2006, set up the AIST Research Center for Hydrogen Industrial Use and Storage (Director: Yukitaka Murakami) inside the university.

Technology. 500 million cubic meters of hydrogen are generated annually as a by-product from steel works in Kitakyushu City.

2 Fukuoka s s competitive advantages in the hydrogen energy field Kyushu University s world-leading intellectual resources The only institute in Japan undertaking the R&D of hydrogen application technologies since 2003 under the 21 st Century COE Program of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science & Technology. In July 2006, set up the AIST Research Center for Hydrogen Industrial Use and Storage (Director: Yukitaka Murakami) inside the university. In December 2010, set up the Carbon Neutral Energy Research Institute under the World Premier International Research Center Institute of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science & Technology. 500 million cubic meters of hydrogen are generated annually as a by-product from steel works in Kitakyushu City. 10-km long hydrogen pipeline passing through the city the only one of its kind in Japan Demonstration test areas include Kyushu University s Ito Campus (hydrogen campus) and Kitakyushu Eco-Town district, etc. High concentration of wide-ranging manufacturing sector, ideal for commercializing hydrogen energy. Kyushu University Ito Campus Kitakyushu Eco Town Diverse manufacturing industries

Initiatives of Fukuoka Hydrogen Strategy #2: Community demonstrations Part 1 Development of the Fukuoka Hydrogen Town Develop the world s largest Hydrogen Town through community-based installations

5 Initiatives of Fukuoka Hydrogen Strategy #2: Community demonstrations Part 1 Development of the Fukuoka Hydrogen Town Develop the world s largest Hydrogen Town through community-based installations of residential fuel cell systems, as a showcase of a society based on hydrogen energy (Completed in March 2009) From spot demonstration activities to area demonstration activities Extract themes for full-scale dissemination through demonstrations for full-scale usage of hydrogen energy. Enhance understanding of residents (social receptivity) of the prefecture for hydrogen energy and alleviate concerns regarding hydrogen energy. According to the results of April 2010 to March 2011, the efforts saved 17,000 liters of kerosene in Fukuoka Hydrogen Town as a whole. Concentration of installations (Approx. 150 residences) Itoshima City LPG-based 1 kw (residential) Fuel Cell System With the collaboration of: JX Nippon Oil & Energy (Former) Nippon Oil Corporation Saibu Gas Energy Co.,LTD Minakazedai and Misakigaoka residential developments in Itoshima City

7 Kitakyushu Hydrogen Town (Demonstration tests started January 15, 2011) World s first demonstration of directly supplying by-product hydrogen to city through pipelines for full-scale use in the region. Carried out jointly with the METI-subsidized demonstration project for infrastructure in Hydrogen-based Society implemented by The Research Association of Hydrogen Supply / Utilization Technology (HySUT). Main demonstrations Initiatives of Fukuoka Hydrogen Strategy #2: Community demonstrations Part 3 Verification of hydrogen supply technologies using 1.2 km long pipeline. Verification of operations of 14 pure hydrogen fuel cells installed in housing complexes, commercial and public facilities. Verification of compact mobile objects running on fuel cells such as forklift and bicycles.
