Ford-led consortium testing hydrogen fuel cell technology on E-Transit in UK

Green Car Congress

A Ford-led consortium is testing hydrogen fuel cell technology on the E-Transit in a small UK-based prototype fleet developed by Ford Pro. The UK-based project will establish if hydrogen fuel cell technology can help to deliver enhanced zero-emission-driving range for E-Transit customers with energy-intensive use cases.

MITEI study finds hydrogen-generated electricity is a cost-competitive candidate for backing up wind and solar

Green Car Congress

A team at MITEI (MIT Energy Initiative) has found that hydrogen-generated electricity can be a cost-competitive option for backing up wind and solar. Applying the model, they found that the average LCOE associated with meeting this seasonal imbalance is $2400/MWh using a HFGT fueled with green hydrogen and $3000/MWh using a LI.
