**Clean Energy Partnership (CEP)** is a joint project for world's most versatile hydrogen demonstration. It is aiming for emission-free mobility and has several [hydrogen stations](/source/Hydrogen_station).

As of May 2010 the CEP is a consortium of thirteen partners: [Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe BVG](/source/Berliner_Verkehrsbetriebe) (Berlin transit authority), [BMW](/source/BMW), [Daimler](/source/Daimler_AG), [Ford](/source/Ford_Motor_Company), [GM](/source/General_Motors)/[Opel](/source/Opel), [Hamburger Hochbahn](/source/Hamburger_Hochbahn) (Hamburg transit company), [Linde Group](/source/The_Linde_Group), [Royal Dutch Shell](/source/Royal_Dutch_Shell), [Statoil](/source/Statoil), [Total](/source/Total_S.A.), [Toyota](/source/Toyota), [Vattenfall Europe](/source/Vattenfall), and [Volkswagen Group](/source/Volkswagen_group).[1]

## Milestones

In November 2004 the first hydrogen station was opened in [Messedamn](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Messedamn&action=edit&redlink=1), [Berlin](/source/Berlin), [Germany](/source/Germany). On July 13, 2006 Volkswagen Group joined the partnership.

In September, 2009 seven members of the Clean Energy Partnership signed a Memorandum of Understanding[2] with NOW GmbH (Nationale Organisation Wasserstoff- und Brennstoffzellentechnologie, "National Organisation Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology", a state organisation. represented by the Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Development.[3] It called for two phases of work

1. "leverage plans to install new hydrogen fuelling stations by 2011"

1. Depending on the progress of this, a nationwide roll-out of hydrogen fuelling stations will be continued, supporting the introduction of series produced hydrogen powered vehicles in Germany around 2015.

As of September 2006 CEP had 17 hydrogen stations.[*[citation needed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)*]
