| Hydrogen and fuel cells are seen by many as key
solutions for the 21st century, enabling clean efficient production of
power and heat from a range of primary energy sources. The High Level Group
for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells Technologies was initiated in October 2002
by the Vice President of the European Commission, Loyola de Palacio, Commissioner
for Energy and Transport, and Mr Philippe Busquin, Commissioner for Research.
The group was invited to formulate a collective vision on the contribution
that hydrogen and fuel cells could make to the realisation of sustainable
energy systems in future.

This final report
has been produced as a follow-up to the summary report presented at the
conference “The hydrogen economy – A bridge to sustainable energy” held
in Brussels on 16-17 June 2003. The terms of reference for the group requested
the preparation of a vision report outlining the research, deployment and
non-technical actions that would be necessary to move from today’s fossil-based
energy economy to a future sustainable hydrogen-oriented economy with fuel
cell energy converters.
