There has been much discussion for over thirty years or more around the use of hydrogen fuel cells as an alternative to the internal combustion engine. Fuel cells had been promoted in some sectors as the best alternative to the internal combustion engine. Both the battery and the fuel cell use chemical reactions to produce electricity.

Cold weather increases internal resistance, reducing the battery’s efficiency. The engine block of an internal combustion engine (ICE) generates a significant quantity of waste heat that may be used to heat the fuel, the cabin, or other components and operations of the vehicle.
