Fraunhofer analysis finds battery-electric trucks have energy cost advantage over hydrogen trucks

Green Car Congress

Electricity and hydrogen are the two key energy carriers for a low-carbon future, and hydrogen will play a vital role in industry, shipping and synthetic aviation fuels. The demand from European industry alone, for example steel mills, massively exceeds the total green hydrogen production capacity currently planned for the EU for 2030.
