10 Results of Activities of Osaka Demonstration Study (4) Efforts to obtain official license plate number for lab FCV (Osaka Sangyo University) Not built by an automobile manufacturer, but only FCV developed, built and whose license will be acquired by one university. (Licensed to be applied in March 2011) Reviews were started from Model need to be approved to drive on public roads. Currently carrying out various tests on remodeling frame, building test frame, shock absorption tests, control test and high pressure hydrogen tests, etc. Continuing efforts to PR by test drives across the country (planned) and develop new FCVs Past demo activities FY2003 FCMV-1(2kW) FY2005 FCMV-2(7.5kW) 50km/h target FY2007 FCV-3(7.5kW) 2 passengers, above 100km/h Ran 3000km in Australia (Darwin to Adelaide) OSU FCV-4 FCV-3 Model authorization to be acquired Drove 3000km in Australia 9

11 Summary of Activities of Osaka Demonstration Study Group In Osaka area, Through local industry-academia-government collaboration, the Osaka FCV Promotion Council was set up first in Osaka, the promotion system was established, and this served as the opportunity to expand JHFC locally. The multi-purpose utilization of hydrogen related to hydrogen supply systems and hydrogen stations demonstrated feasibility for establishing the markets for FC applied equipment and system and resulted in steady achievements. Activities to promote understanding enhanced awareness and understanding of hydrogen and fuel cells and contribute to building a hydrogen energy society. The Osaka area is one of the cities playing a core role in spreading FCVs, and it will strive to further efforts towards spreading hydrogen and fuel cell technologies through the strong collaboration between industry, academia and government. 10
