Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEV) are similar to BEVs in that they have an electric-only powertrain, but they store energy differently. FCEVs store hydrogen gas in a tank rather than charging a battery. The fuel cell’s electricity then powers an electric motor, which drives the vehicle like a BEV.

If you’re filling up a car that has an internal combustion engine (ICE), you only need to distinguish between the gas and diesel pump. For drivers of electric vehicles (EVs), however, there are more options to choose from. If you want to use your devices abroad, you’ll typically need an adapter or even a transformer to draw power.
