Hydrogen for electromobility : a promising energy carrier

Abstract

Electromobility has received important attention in the last few years, but its perception by the public and decision makers is often limited to battery powered vehicles. Alternatives such as hydrogen fuel cells should however be taken into account, as their specific advantages (in particular short refueling times) make electro-mobility as a whole acceptable by a much broader public. Within the SCCER Mobility, PSI and ZHAW work on a novel fuel cell concept aiming at reducing the major limitation to the deployment of fuel cells: their cost
