Slide4: 

New Programme NIP National Innovation Programme on H2/FC (NIP) Goal: Bridging the gap between R&D and market development Additional funding: 500 million € over the next 10 years, i.e. nearly a doubling of public funding Implementation: through public-private-partnerships with average public funding of 50 %, i.e. additional 1 billion € over next 10 years Focus: market preparation with demon- stration / lighthouse projects (2/3), accompanied by R&D projects (1/3) Link: implementation in close coordi- nation and cooperation with EU / further international activities and regions www.nkj-ptj.de and www.iphe.net/germany.htm

Slide5: 

Criteria for Lighthouse Projects in NIP Lighthouse projects should bridge the gap between today’s prototypes and full-scale commercialisation Use of extensive experiences, capacity, (financial) commitments and existing infrastructure in individual regions (“starter regions” Berlin, Hamburg, NRW) Advancement of existing R&D and demonstration projects Concentration on a few sites (clusters) in the beginning, broadening of activities and linking up with those in other European regions Cooperation of a wide range of companies including SMEs New Programme NIP (2)

Slide6: 

Current Status of the Implementation of NIP New Programme NIP (3) Commitments of industry (Protocol declaration of 24 companies) for matching the public funding (in place since October 2006) Discussions and agreements with the Federal States concerning their participation (ongoing since September 2006) Overall programme of work by Strategy Council H2/FC (transport, stationary and early market) (by February 2007) EU-Notification of the NIP (expected February 2007) Plenary meeting (March 2007) Foundation of Programme Management Association (NOW) and begin of opera- tional activities (after March 2007)
