DOE labs study on costs and benefits of new transportation technologies the most comprehensive to date

Green Car Congress

The study looked at several powertrains: internal combustion engine, hybrid electric vehicle, plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, fuel cell electric vehicle and battery electric vehicle. Hydrogen-powered fuel cell electric vehicles will reach cost parity with conventional vehicles as the price of hydrogen falls. —David Gohlke.

NREL study finds high-pressure hydrogen pipeline system could potentially make hydrogen cost-competitive with gasoline

Green Car Congress

An open-access paper on the work is published in the journal Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment. However, owing to small scale and limited competition, dispensed hydrogen fuel prices currently are higher, averaging about $16.30/kg kg in California in the third quarter of 2018. —Penev et al.
