The paper will give an overview about the research work IKP (as scientific work package leader) and PE along with other European partners will perform within the EC funded CUTE project. The CUTE project was established to demonstrate the readiness of the fuel cell technology as an almost emission-free and low-noise transport system in public transportation. The project marks the first large scale fleet application of fuel cell (FC) driven vehicles. To ensure that the stated goals of environmental friendly and resource saving provision of transportation are reached the IKP lead research group evaluates the new technology in its totality and over its complete life cycle. This evaluation includes a comparison with conventional alternatives (diesel driven buses, CNG-buses). The method used for the ecological, technical and economic analysis will be the Life Cycle Assessment according to the DIN ISO 14040 series. Besides the quantification of the abatement of CO2 at European level and contribution to commitments of Kyoto the study will also investigate the potential of the new FC technology to reduce air polluting emissions like SO2 and the summer smog causing NO(x) in highly populated inner city areas.
