Navigant forecasts transportation demand for hydrogen to accelerate Power-to-Gas growth

Green Car Congress

Navigant Research forecasts that the transportation segment, with hydrogen demand as a catalyst, will jump-start power-to-gas (P2G) demand and further drive down electrolyzer and other infrastructure costs. Navigant notes that P2G offers benefits to the electric grid through the integration of renewable energy sources.

Fraunhofer analysis finds battery-electric trucks have energy cost advantage over hydrogen trucks

Green Car Congress

But for road transport, we cannot, I believe, wait for hydrogen technology to catch up, and our focus now should be on battery electric vehicles in both passenger and freight transport. They exceed the purchase costs many times over. 2022) “Hydrogen technology is unlikely to play a major role in sustainable road transport.”

UK study finds Bio-SNG could offer 90% reduction in lifecycle CO2; lower cost of carbon abatement than electrical solutions for transport applications

Green Car Congress

Cost of carbon abated for transport applications. Unlike biomethane produced by anaerobic digestion, Bio-SNG is formed by the conversion of thermally-derived syngas—i.e., This saving is similar for both conventional heating and transport applications. Cost of carbon abated. Click to enlarge.

Study finds all-electric rideshare fleet could reduce carbon emissions, but increase traffic issues

Green Car Congress

They used the model and the data to estimate the life cycle air pollution, greenhouse gas, and traffic externality benefits and costs of serving rides based on Chicago TNC trip data from 2019 to 2022 with fully electric vehicles. A paper on their work is published in the ACS journal Environmental Science & Technology.
