Hydrogen Fuel Cell technology represents a promising frontier in alternative fuel development. Hydrogen (H2) serves as the primary fuel, sourced from domestic resources. While still in its nascent stages as a transportation fuel, concerted efforts from government and industry aim to establish clean, cost-effective, and safe hydrogen production and distribution for fuel cell vehicles.
Notably, fuel cell vehicles are gradually making their way into consumer markets, albeit in localized regions both domestically and globally. Moreover, the hydrogen market extends beyond consumer vehicles, encompassing buses, material handling equipment, ground support equipment, medium and heavy-duty vehicles, and stationary applications.
The allure of hydrogen as an alternative transportation fuel lies in its capacity to power fuel cells in zero-emission electric vehicles, its potential for domestic production, and the high efficiency offered by fuel cells. Remarkably, fuel cells boast two to three times greater efficiency compared to internal combustion engines running on gasoline, further underscoring hydrogen’s potential as a clean energy solution.
