Fuel Cells Development in Eastern Germany
Options for Biogenous GasesDr. Georg Wagener-Lohse, Centre for Energy Technology Brandenburg

What is going on in Germany – roughly speaking
Examples from Mecklenburg, Saxony-Anhalt and Saxony
Fuel Cell for Biogas in Potsdam Bornim
A proposal for the 3rd FP6 call
Some information on CEBra

Developments are going on in the fields of portable, stationary and mobile fuel cells.
Most Technologies (PEMFC, DMFC, SOFC, MCFC) play a role in R&D work.
Scientific institutes and companies are work-ing in close collaboration.
Several Bundesländer have formed networks to coordinate their developments.
Market actors in the Eastern Bundesländer have founded a network “AFG” under the leadership of co-ordinators and FEE recently.

In recent years several associations for the promotion of the “hydrogen society” have been formed.
On the initiative of Prof. Garche, ZSW, and the world fuel cell council all parties met in Ulm on March 26th for the foundation of an informal platform to define a German roadmap within the EU Hydrogen networking activities.
AFG took part in most of the working groups for industrial, home and mobile applications.
Brandenburg has a considerable interest to promote all biomass related applications (solid, liquid, gaseous).
European programs like EIE, 6FP or PHARE should form the basis for future cooperation.
German Associations for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells Started to Prepare Roadmap

Different projects before or in pilot phase
Limited range of unique developments for main components
Core competence mostly in the US and Canada
Ready configured FC-appliances
Regional, national, global market with strong dynamic
Annual needs in Germany for reconstruction 400,000 and for new applications 300,000 units,expected market share 15,000
Need for stand alone solutions, APU, combinations
