Fuel Cell Vehicle Market Share, Size, Future Demand, and Emerging Trends

Electric vehicles are everywhere to be seen, considering the advantages of the same over the conventional fuel powered vehicles. But, the one thing that is till now not sorted and plays against electric vehicles is the time taken by them to recharge their battery. Now, the question arises that, is it possible to overcome this issue of long charging times for the electric vehicles.

The answer to this is yes, it can be done with the hydrogen powered cars or, as they are said the fuel cell electric vehicles. Let’s read some more about furl cell electric vehicles in this blog.

Working of a Hydrogen Car

Hydrogen cars have an electric motor and are thus classified as e-cars. FCEV is an abbreviation for “Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle” instead of BEVs.

There is a difference between other EVs and hydrogen vehicles, in that the latter produce the electricity all by themselves. This means that they are not reliant on a built-in battery, as is the case with other kinds of electric vehicles, which are to be charged from an external source.

What are the Pros of a Hydrogen Car?

Now, that you are aware of the entire functioning of the FCEV, it is also important to know that, why it is good to switch to a hydrogen-powered car.

•    Hydrogen cars are driven purely by electricity and produce absolutely no tailpipe emissions. The experience of driving is just like that of electric cars. There is a dynamic, silent acceleration since electric motors offer their full torque at lower speeds.

•    The biggest advantage of these cars is the lesser refueling time. This brings car accessibility and flexibility in line with that of a regular car

•    Hydrogen vehicles have an alike range to e-cars with large battery storage. A single hydrogen refueling can give you a much better range than an ordinary electric car. If we take the example of BMW iX5 Hydrogen, it is around 504 kilometers. The range of hydrogen-powered cars is not reliant on the outside temperature, so it does not decline in cold weather.

•    Fuel cell electric vehicles make use of the same electric drive as BEVs, but they vary in the way they store energy. This means that the marketing of hydrogen fuel cell cars benefits both battery and fuel cell technologies equally, reducing the costs of them in the long term.

Final Sum Up

It is because of the various measures taken by governments all over the world to reduce emissions, the demand for fuel-cell vehicles will continue to grow in the years to come.
