PROJECT INTRODUCTION
04/2017 Bulk H2 OnRail | Project Presentation Hannover 2
Project Background
Current Hydrogen Initiatives are mostly based on road transport and decentralized (renewable) energy usage. Hydrogen infrastructure and logistics based on:
Sources of hydrogen and hydrogen production sites
Need for hydrogen retail/refuelling outlets
Logistic solutions largely in an economic feed forward scenario like H2 Mobility are designed around existing production facilities, pipeline networks, truck deliveries or decentralized electrolysis
New developments require new thinking Railway Sector to be considered as major hydrogen user
Industrial decarbonisation via hydrogen, e.g. H2FUTURE (Path 2 CO2 Free Steel production) will play a major role
Challenge: Hydrogen Rail Transport to close the gap between road transport and pipeline

(Germany freight modal share of rail) is reached
Supply of hydrogen powered public transport fleets
Bus 20 % of total (mainly if synergy with rail) ,
Rail 70% of total H2 demand
Private vehicle fleet demand via synergy volumes. 10% of car fleet H2 demand

Project Intermediate Results Techno-economic Logistic Base Data
Assumptions/Background data All data from published literature, estimates by SYN-HW where not available
Except the LOHC standard tank wagon, loading units are 40‘ Container Dimensions Standard or High Cube
Tanks/pressure vessels are fitted according to manufacturer designs
CAPEX data without ground based infrastructure (compressors, liquefaction plant, gasifier, hydrogenation/dehydrogenation plant, etc.)
RID/ADR requirement as per manufacturer statement

Project Intermediate Results Logistic Case Study Definitions
Case 1 – Decarbonisation Steel Plant (H2Future) Supply in complete train rotations (20 Wagons)
Technology option LOHC Tank Wagon
H2 Content/train 60t
Point2Point relation, Rail Monomodal
Wind park near North Sea – Steel plant Austria Central 1000km
Wind park Austria East – Steel plant Austria Central 200km
Case 2& 3 – Public Transport Supply Node Supply in single wagons as part of mixed trains
Technology option 50MPa 40‘ High Cube Container
H2 Content per loading unit 1.25t, per wagon 2.5t
Intermodal relation
Wind park – Refuelling site (No Border crossing) distance 800km/250km
By-product Hydrogen – Refuelling site (Border Crossing), distance ≈ 400km.

Project Intermediate Results Freight Costs
1st Result - Case 1 (LOHC) Cost for relation Eastern => Central Austria (≈ 200km)
€ 0,43/kg H2
Cost for relation N-Sea => Central Austria (≈ 1000km)
€ 0,87/kg H2
These results point to a possibility of forwarding H2 in distances of up to 1000km at least for the LOHC technology option
Intermodal data are more complex to obtain and thus will be developed until the project closing at End Q3/2017

Project Intermediate Results RCS-Transport and Logistics
RCS regarding Transport of Hydrogen on Rail Transport of Hydrogen on rail is generally covered by the RID
(Règlement concernant le transport international ferroviaire de marchandises dangereuses)
The RID does not cover Hydrogen Transport in MOFs (adsorbed gaseous Hydrogen)
LOHC are not considered to be dangerous goods as per the RID
RCS regarding Loading and Unloading Infrastructure Directive 2012/18/EU (Seveso III) excludes transport,
loading/unloading and reloading to other modes of transport but is relevant for loading/unloading and reloading infrastructure as well as for intermediate storage potentially influencing the logistic chain in case of disrupted transport
Other international and national regulations – independent from rail transportation – cover equipment, safety measures and qualifications
04/2017 Bulk H2 OnRail | Project Presentation Hannover 15
Project Intermediate Results RCS-Design, Gap Analysis
RCS regarding Transport Equipment All design requirements for Freight Wagons are covered under the
Technical Specifications Interoperability/TSI which are European legislation (not including Loading Units)
Loading Units are covered by the RID and/or other, specific Standards
Gap Analysis RID to cover MOFs as soon as the technology is available in relevant
scales
Potential equipment installed on Freight Wagons and not being part of certified Loading Units
International standardisation of safety measures, qualifications and processes currently being guided by national guidelines like the “Technische Regeln für Betriebssicherheit” in Germany
Separation/Definition of intermediate storage versus standstill during transport
