Hydrogen vehicles are a type of automobile that uses hydrogen as its primary fuel source to power an electric motor. These vehicles typically utilize a hydrogen fuel cell, which converts hydrogen gas into electricity through a chemical reaction with oxygen, emitting only water vapor and heat as byproducts. Hydrogen vehicles can also refer to those equipped with internal combustion engines that run on hydrogen fuel.The main advantage of hydrogen vehicles is their potential for zero-emission transportation, contributing to cleaner air and reduced greenhouse gas emissions. They can offer longer driving ranges and faster refueling times compared to battery electric vehicles, making them suitable for various applications, including personal transportation and commercial use.Hydrogen vehicles are part of the broader initiative to develop alternative fuel technologies aimed at reducing dependence on fossil fuels and mitigating climate change impacts. However, their widespread adoption is limited by challenges such as the current infrastructure for hydrogen production, storage, and distribution, as well as the efficiency and cost of fuel cell technology.
