The Clean Energy Partnership (CEP)
The partners in the Clean Energy Partnership (CEP) are working across
multiple sectors towards the market activation of hydrogen and fuel-cell
mobility as part of a sustainable energy transition. Air Liquide, Audi, BMW,
Daimler, H2 Mobility, Honda, Hyundai, Linde, OMV, Shell, Total, Toyota, and
the Westfalen Group are all involved in the project.
In order to make optimum use of resources and synergies as the partners
work together towards their goals in the spirit of a shared mission, the
project is organised into working groups: Market Activation & Modes of
Transport, Car Filling Stations, Green Hydrogen & Logistics, Regulations
& Promotion, Strategy Circle, and Communications, with their respective
subordinate focus groups.
