commercial viability of fuel cell vehicle technology has been demonstrated (commercial vehicles being sold). Preliminary analysis performed by the national laboratories on the H2@Scale concept indicated that nearly a 50% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions is possible by 2050 via such large-scale hydrogen production and use.

The EPA last week announced stricter emissions standards for heavy-duty commercial vehicles, such as trucks and buses, for model years 2027 to 2032. The rule may quicken the deployment of smaller electric commercial vehicles, like box trucks and delivery trucks, but not bigger vehicles like semi trucks, Higashide said.
