Study finds GWP of electrolyzed hydrogen to meet ORD’s fuel needs would be 2.5x that of fossil fuels with 2020 grid mix

Green Car Congress

Phil Ansell, an aerospace engineer at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, modeled the life cycle carbon dioxide equivalent emissions of liquid hydrogen production required to meet the fuel needs of Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport (ORD) with today’s electric grid mix. Ansell presented his findings at AIAA Aviation 2023 in June.

How EVs Are Reducing Carbon (CO2) Emissions

Blink Charging

Not only do they eliminate tailpipe emissions, but they also boast greater energy efficiency compared to their gasoline counterparts. This suggests that the shift towards EVs presents a significant opportunity to reduce our carbon footprint by decreasing CO 2 emissions and improving air quality. Let’s not forget our carbon footprint.
