H2 also from the same energy source.

Electric line is much more efficient. Transportation cost over long distance is extremely low.

this.

a big thumbs up

yes...but not from fossil wat.... hmm.gif

many didnt know Hydrogen car = Hybrid = EV+ petrol or EV+hydrogen


for heavy vehicle, it is still alright.

for normal cars, your hydrogen car is similar to honda/toyota hybrid = EV+ hydrogen to charge the battery.

what is so different?

petrol = direct use to burn/combust
hydrogen you need to compress from factory, lorry also , even the hydrogen station.

the cost to build hydrogen station is 5 times of petrol station, and the cost to maintain hydrogen station is 4 times.

oh you will carry hydrogen tank that is highly compressed in your car.



why heavy vehicle will make sense?

because they dont have smoke/haze/smog like our diesel powered bus kilang.

It differs from country to country. Some have different primary source of power. Like some european countries are almost fully renewable. Some other countries are getting there.

Depends on the political willpower of the government as economies (thus incentives) lean differently.
These countries can have very green hydrogen if produced using electrolysis. We can go that way too and reduce on dependence on coal (and its price fluctuations). But we have an oil and gas industry to support so.....

hydrogen car
burn fossil -> electricity -> electrolysis

vs

EV
burn fossil -> electricity

why need extra step?


hydrogen need to stay compressed during transport .

it even need to stay compressed when it is in your car.

there is a reason honda stopped development hydrogen fuel cell for car


petrol is a better substitute than hydrogen
