Can the power grid actually handle that many electric cars? The capacity is there, but to truly handle this new surge in EV grid demand, it will take planning on the part of utility companies across the U.S. Department of Transportation, the typical American drives their car about 13,500 miles per year. of what the U.S.

The FH2R can produce as much as 1,200 Nm 3 of hydrogen per hour (rated power operation) using renewable energy. Renewable energy output is subject to large fluctuations, so FH2R will adjust to supply and demand in the power grid in order to maximize utilization of this energy while establishing low-cost, Green hydrogen production technology.
