UK Carbon Trust report says fuel cell vehicles could take more than 30% of mid-sized car market by 2050

Green Car Congress

However, in order to be competitive with internal combustion engine vehicles, automotive fuel cells must reach approximately $36/kW. It would also reduce global carbon emissions from vehicles by an additional 260 million tonnes per year by 2050—equivalent to the current annual emissions of Taiwan. Click to enlarge.
