Fuel cell cars are a key pillar in the state's decarbonization plan.The California Air Resources Board has projected that more than 10% of new cars sold in 2035 will be fuel cell vehicles, growing ...
California should invest more money into nurturing the use of hydrogen vehicles, not just pouring funds into plug-in electric cars. Column: Hydrogen cars should be a bigger part of California's ...
The California Fuel Cell Partnership (CaFCP) is a public-private partnership to promote hydrogen vehicles (including cars and buses) in California. It is notable as one of the first initiatives for that purpose undertaken in the United States. The challenge is which come first, hydrogen cars or filling stations. [1]
In late 2022, to quote the California Hydrogen Business Council from a now-deleted page on their website, “A kilogram of hydrogen costs between $10 and $17 at California hydrogen stations, which ...
Hydrogen combustion cars are not commercially available. [citation needed] In the light road vehicle segment, by the end of 2022, 70,200 fuel cell electric vehicles had been sold worldwide, [25] compared with 26 million plug-in electric vehicles. [26] In 2023, 3,143 hydrogen cars were sold in the US compared with 380,000 BEVs. [27]
If well optimized, slightly higher efficiencies can be achieved. The comparison with a hydrogen fuel cell is interesting. The fuel cell has a high efficiency peak at low load, while at high load the efficiency drops. The hydrogen combustion engine has a peak at high load and can achieve similar efficiency levels as a hydrogen fuel cell. [34]
To quote the California Hydrogen Business Council, “Currently, a kilogram of hydrogen costs between $10 and $17 at California hydrogen stations, which equals about $5 to $8.50 per gallon of ...
In September 2006, California Senate Bill 1505 required 33% of hydrogen to come from renewable energy sources, [3] [4] and other initiatives followed. [5] As of 2007, 25 stations were in operation. [6] Some of these hydrogen fueling stations completed the terms of their government-funded research demonstration project and were decommissioned. [7]
