Study Finds Availability of Low-CO2 Electricity and Hydrogen May Paradoxically Delay Large-Scale Transition to Electric and/or Hydrogen Vehicle Fleet

Green Car Congress

Left, global light-duty fleet in the electric-favoring case; right, the hydrogen-favoring case. In both electric- and hydrogen-favoring cases, availability of low-carbon electricity and hydrogen prolonged the use of petroleum-fueled ICE vehicles. Top, without CCS and CSP; bottom, with CCS and CSP. Click to enlarge.

ICCT LCA study finds only battery and hydrogen fuel-cell EVs have potential to be very low-GHG passenger vehicle pathways

Green Car Congress

The results show there is no realistic pathway to full decarbonization of internal combustion engine vehicles, and that only battery and hydrogen fuel-cell EVs have potential to be very low-GHG passenger vehicle pathways. The results reflect the full life-cycle GHG emissions of battery and fuel-cell EVs. Source: The ICCT. Source: The ICCT.

Mercedes-Benz takes stake in H2 Green Steel; to begin use of green steel in 2025

Green Car Congress

In the new process, the supplier uses hydrogen and electricity from 100% renewable energy sources instead of coking coal in steel production. The hydrogen serves as a reduction gas, which releases and binds the oxygen from the iron ore. Unlike the use of coking coal, this does not produce CO 2 , but water.

DOE releases Hydrogen and Fuel Cells Program Plan (2010 Draft) for public comment

Green Car Congress

The roles for hydrogen and fuel cells in the energy mix. The US Department of Energy (DOE) has released a draft version of the Hydrogen and Fuel Cells Program Plan, which outlines the strategy, activities, and plans of DOE’s Hydrogen and Fuel Cells Program. Improve the performance and reduce the cost of hydrogen storage systems.

BNEF: steel industry set to pivot to hydrogen in green push; additional $278B for clean capacity and retrofits

Green Car Congress

Hydrogen and recycling are likely to play a central role in reducing emissions from steel production. By 2050, green hydrogen could be the cheapest production method for steel and capture 31% of the market. Converting a significant portion of the fleet to hydrogen would require more DRI plants and more electric furnaces.
