HyLights is a coordination action to accelerate the commercialisation of hydrogen and fuel cells in the field of transport in Europe.

Hydrogen enables the transport sector to phase in renewable energies on the path to a cleaner mobility. At the same time hydrogen contributes to fulfill various strategic policy goals of the European Commission such as

• diversification of energy supply,
• reduction of greenhouse gases,
• increase of renewable energy share and
• to foster economic growth and competitiveness of European industry.

The European Commission has initiated the European Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Platform (HFP) to become a major instrument to coordinate and structure the strategic planning for the introduction of hydrogen energy in Europe.

	H2moves.eu-European Hydrogen Demonstration Projects

HyLights is a natural complement of the HFP activities to plan the next phase large scale demonstration projects on hydrogen and fuel cells for the transport sector in Europe. These activities comprise a detailed analysis of the learning from past projects worldwide.

By powering an initiative for growth of hydrogen and fuel cells for transport HyLights provides services for the project family on hydrogen and fuel cells for transport and their stakeholders.
