The paper presents the results of a most recent study for the German Federal Environmental Agency (UBA) that investigates the prospects and limits of hydrogen pathways in transport in comparison with other alternative fuel options. Emphasis is put on the energy systems interlinkages between hydrogen generation and use with other areas of energy production and consumption. The study builds on a comprehensive bottom-up energy modelling framework that has been used for the long-term energy scenarios of the Federal Ministry for the Environment and the German Federal Environmental Agency. Through embedding the hydrogen option into the broader framework of an integrated alternative fuel strategy, the paper opens the perspective of the current hydrogen fuel debate and offers new insights on interdependencies and synergies that can be used to manage a transition phase to future sustainable fuel infrastructures in road transport.
