Automotive Hydrogen

Automotive Hydrogen refers to the use of hydrogen as a fuel source for vehicles, particularly in fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs). In this context, hydrogen is stored in tanks and used in fuel cells to generate electricity, which powers an electric motor. The main appeal of automotive hydrogen lies in its potential to produce zero tailpipe emissions, contributing to cleaner air and a reduction in greenhouse gases compared to traditional fossil fuels. Hydrogen can be produced from various sources, including water and natural gas, and can be renewable when derived from sustainable methods. The technology is part of a broader movement towards alternative energy solutions in the transportation sector, aiming to reduce dependency on petrol and diesel, promote energy diversification, and enhance overall energy efficiency in the automotive industry.
