The UK development and deployment roadmap
Download the Roadmap (2mb pdf)
The Roadmap was developed to accelerate the commercialisation of fuel cell technologies within the UK, and to ensure that the UK derives maximum benefit from that process. This applies not only to industry, but also to the research community, Government (national, regional and local) and society at large. It comprises:
- An analysis of UK strengths;
- Evaluation of the UK’s competitive position;
- Assessment of challenges to development and deployment, and identification of strategies and actions to overcome them; and
- A schedule of recommendations.
The Roadmap was developed in consultation with industry and other stakeholders.
Responses to consultations and submissions
As part of our ongoing dialogue with Government and other key stakeholders, we regularly provide both formal responses to Consultations and other submissions in areas of relevance to our sector. Recent examples include:
- Pre-budget submission to Treasury (pdf)
- Response to the Consultation on the Renewable Energy Strategy Part 1 (pdf)
- Response to the Consultation on the Renewable Energy Strategy Part 2 (Annex 1 – Feed-in tariffs – pdf)
- Response to the Consultation on the Renewable Electricity Financial Incentives (Feed-in tarrifs – pdf)
- Feed-in tariffs for MicroCHP – Industry Statement (pdf)
Position papers

- Demonstration programmes
- Forward commitment to buy
- The funding landscape
- Fuel cells’ position in the renewable landscape
- Feed-in tariffs
Briefing materials
Our briefing materials have been developed to promote the case for fuel cells to different stakeholder groups. They cover:
UK fuel cell capabilities
Download the latest Capabilities Guide (pdf)
UK companies play a major role in the global fuel cell industry. The knowledge and expertise of the industry spans the full length of the commercial value chain, from R&D to systems integration, and from finance to servicing. Many of these capabilities have been developed in partnership with companies and organisations from across the world.
The UK’s industrial strengths are complemented by a world-renowned science and technology base that is continuously delivering innovation into this dynamic industry and over 35 research UK organisations are highly active in fuel cell and hydrogen research.
Our guide contains profiles of members of Fuel Cells UK, and has been developed to promote the UK fuel cell sector and stimulate new partnerships and collaborations. Information on expertise and track record, as well as contact details, are provided.
