ALPStore – Technical symposium – Belfort, March 26th 2014
Recent developments in France
Electrical grid support
Valorisation of renewable energies
ALPStore – Technical symposium – Belfort, March 26th 2014
The Myrte project
• Storing energy from renewable energy in Corsica. Investigation of the
potential of H2 for providing energy to islands. France has a very large
maritime territory.
• H2 is produced by water electrolysis using electricity produced by solar
panels
• 3700 m2 / 560 kWc PV. 200 kW electrolyser . Storage of H2 and O2. 100
kW fuel cell.

The Janus project
• In summer, cities located on the Mediterranean coast see their
population increasing by a large factor (e.g. x 10). This fact as a large
impact on the energy demand.
• In this project, Areva uses electricity from solar panels to feed the
Greenenergy Box to provide energy to buildings or back-up power in
case of power interruption.
• The Greenenergy Box is a modular concept (50 to 500 kW) and can
store from 0.2 to 2 MWh of energy.

Recent developments in France
Power to gas
ALPStore – Technical symposium – Belfort, March 26th 2014
The GRHYD project
• Led by GDF-SUEZ, 12 partners
• Power to gas : Grid management by
injection of H2 in NG for
decarbonizing energy
• Localized in Dunkerque
• 3 markets targeted
Optimization/valorization of
renewable energy
New gas for sustainable
cities
Hythane fuel for fleets
(buses, etc.)

Recent developments in France
Energy storage
ALPStore – Technical symposium – Belfort, March 26th 2014
The Hydor project
• Test of energy storage from electricity generated by a coal power
plant. French power plant Emile Huchet in Moselle operated by E.ON
• Storage of H2 in a solid matrix provided by McPhy energy.
• Small scale test : 4 kg of H2

Light duty vehicles
ALPStore – Technical symposium – Belfort, March 26th 2014
F-City H2 : FCH urban vehicle
• Heavy quadricycle with a FCH range extender (Michelin)
• French-Swiss project
• 1st approval of a H2 vehicle in France (15 December 2011)
ALPStore – Technical symposium – Belfort, March 26th 2014
MobyPost : Deployment of 10 FCH
vehicles for La Poste
• FCH-JU 2009 funded project involving 9 partners
• Deployment of 2 fleets of 5 La Poste vehicles on 2 postal sites in
Franche-Comté
• H2 and fuel cell concept “solar top wheels”. H2 locally produced
by solar panels and water electrolysis.

Vehicles
ALPStore – Technical symposium – Belfort, March 26th 2014
MOBILHyTEst-1 : Test of HyKangoo by La
Poste in Franche-Comté
• Electrical vehicle Kangoo ZE (Renault) modified by adding a FCH range
extender (SymbioFCell)
• 5 kW FC, 1.8 kg of H2, autonomy doubled (300 km)
• Test of 3 HyKangoo on 2 postal sites in Franche-Comté. The
experimentation will start on the 2nd semester of 2014
• Next step : MOBILHyTEst-2.
• Experimentation extended to other La Poste’s vehicles (high duty
vehicles ≥ 3,5 t) and to other captive fleet’s operators.
• Objective : Clean delivery in down town centres.

Recent developments in France
Forklifts
ALPStore – Technical symposium – Belfort, March 26th 2014
Air Liquide: H2 stations for forklifts
• Air Liquide’s logistic platform, Vatry
(near Reims)
• Refuelling of FCH forklifts, started on
January 2012
• HyPusion : Joint agreement between
Plug Power and Axane/Air Liquide
Hydrogen Energy to provide FC systems
for forklifts.
• IKEA’s logistic platform, Saint-Quentin-Fallavier
(near Lyon)
• Initial deployment : fleet of ≈ 20 FCH forklifts
• Project started on March 2013

Maritime applications
ALPStore – Technical symposium – Belfort, March 26th 2014
Zero CO2: a hybrid PEMFC sailboat
• 25 kW PEMFC system
• LiFePO4 batteries : 15 kWh
• 10.5 kg of H2@35 MPa: 350 kWh
