Recently, regional public-private partnerships have developed comprehensive strategies for coordinating early hydrogen infrastructure development with FCV rollouts in North America, Europe and Asia. It appears that these efforts may jumpstart the hydrogen economy at last. These partnerships are bringing key stakeholders together.

Many countries have met their climate goals and are on track to be completely carbon neutral. Then, as now, wind farms are operating off the world’s coasts—but not all of these offshore sites are connected to the mainland via underwater power cables. Imagine this hopeful, and not impossible, energy scenario for the year 2040.

Germany has embarked on a large-scale Energiewende (energy transition)—a policy-driven shift away from nuclear and fossil energy to a renewable energy economy. As a third measure, Siemens is proposing a European regulation for reducing CO 2 emissions, such as by strengthening trade in CO 2 emissions certificates in Europe.

A range of government regulations aimed at achieving zero-carbon emissions are driving this migration. The task is clearly enormous, not just for the chemical manufacturing industry itself but for the larger economy. These and other international regulations on greenhouse emissions could threaten up to 12 percent of all U.S.

PEV offerings have also been announced throughout Europe and Asia. Additional battery R&D may achieve even greater cost reductions, perhaps more significant than the cost reductions expected through economies of scale and “learning by doing” in the production process. The recommendations include: Technology-Neutral Policies.

This renewable production capacity is increasingly important to ensure the existing power grid can accept more renewable sources. To reinforce the safety aspect of using hydrogen storage tanks, Toyota reported that they had fired bullets at their carbon-fibre fuel tanks, which did little more than bounce off or make small dents.

The study—“A portfolio of powertrains for Europe: a fact-based analysis”—compares the economics, sustainability and performance of fuel cell, battery-electric, hybrid-electric and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles in achieving the decarbonization goal. Medium- or heavy-duty vehicles were not included.

Electric vehicles typically have a smaller operating carbon footprint than gasoline cars, even when accounting for the electricity used for charging. It makes sense that during their usable life, electric vehicles are better for the environment than their ICEV counterparts, as they aren’t powered by fossil fuels.

However, the raw materials for batteries are, in most cases, imported into China from Africa and refined before being exported to Europe. Automakers in Europe can lower their emissions by shortening the transport distance and capitalizing on the DRC’s hydroelectric powered grid and proximity to raw materials.
