The main funding opportunities in NRW with respect to hydrogen and fuel cell technology are:

• Project "NRW Hydrogen HyWay": Grants for projects related to research, development and demonstration
  
  
• NRW / EU CHP investment grant. Launch program includes CHP fuel cell

NRW Hydrogen HyWay
The key project NRW Hydrogen HyWay is continued in a second phase from 2013 to 2016. So far, at any time and independent of special calling the project applications project ETN of NRW be submitted. In the second phase, the HyWay is reintegrated into the competition Views of the country, starting in eight key markets end of 2014, such as "Energy and Environmental Economics", "production", "New Materials" or "Mobility and Logistics". The aim of the development of the lead market energy and environmental economics is to develop solutions to major societal challenges of sustainable industrial production, climate change / adaptation and resource / energy efficiency and sustainable energy supply and at the same time contributing to sustainable growth and employment in North Rhine-Westphalia to afford. The new method is considerably simpler than the current process.
The network Fuel Cell and Hydrogen NRW support applicants in advance eg when searching for project partners with specific expertise.
The following main topics are set:

• Hydrogen production. Conversion (Elektrolyseurtechnik) and storage (eg in distributed systems and caverns) regenerative income stream in the form of hydrogen including subsequent use in the energy system (keyword Power to gas)

• Infrastructures: the introduction of regenerated hydrogen as an innovative transport fuel (production, storage, filling for priority applications public transport and car fleets)

• Fuel cell vehicles: testing of vehicles with fuel cell technology (focus public transport, commercial vehicles and special applications)

• Stationary fuel cells: research, development and testing of distributed combined heat and power (CHP) fuel cell-based (in addition to the NRW-launch program CHP), virtual power plants with a focus on fuel cell cogeneration and hybrid power plants, as well as

• Research and development: technical optimization and cost reduction of fuel cells and pre-commercial testing of new developments.

NRW / EU.KWK investment subsidy
North Rhine-Westphalia promotes the launch of CHP plants and CHP-based measures of the program "progres.nrw - CHP program area". Funding will be provided by the Ministry for Climate Protection, Environment, Agriculture, Conservation and Consumer Protection of North Rhine-Westphalia. The grant applications can be submitted to the District Government Arnsberg. The promotion is aimed primarily at small and medium-sized enterprises in North Rhine-Westphalia. In addition to conventional CHP plants demonstration projects of new cogeneration provider (including fuel cells) regardless of performance and investment promoted. The promotion is 45% of the eligible expenditure - for small businesses up to 65% for medium enterprises up to 55%. Fuel cells in the power range 1.5 kWe were, for example, been funded with up to 13,000 euros. For more information about the support program can be found on the sides of the campaign "KWK.NRW - Power meets warmth" .The respective locations funded by the state of North Rhine-Westphalia fuel cell CHP systems identified on the map below. In addition to these and other non-subsidized or systems, you'll also find plants that have been supported by the Federal project "Callux".

About the conveyor module "progres.nrw - launch" businesses, communities and individuals can be encouraged want to use the marketable products (including micro-CHP systems) for the efficient conversion and economical use of energy documents can be found in. Arnsberg District .
