Hydrogen Vehicles

Hydrogen vehicles are types of vehicles that use hydrogen as a fuel source to power an electric motor. These vehicles generally operate using hydrogen fuel cells, which produce electricity through a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen, emitting only water vapor as a byproduct. Unlike traditional gasoline or diesel vehicles, hydrogen vehicles do not rely on fossil fuels, making them a more environmentally friendly option, as they can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Hydrogen vehicles can refuel relatively quickly, similar to conventional fuel vehicles, and typically have a longer range compared to battery electric vehicles. There are two primary types of hydrogen vehicles: fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), which rely on hydrogen fuel cells for propulsion, and hydrogen internal combustion engine vehicles, which use hydrogen as a fuel in modified internal combustion engines.

The infrastructure for hydrogen refueling is less widespread compared to electric vehicle charging stations, which presents challenges for adoption, but ongoing advancements in hydrogen production, storage, and distribution are aimed at increasing the viability and accessibility of hydrogen vehicles in the automotive market.
