Hydrogen energy : unprecedented analysis on decarbonised mobility

A study developed under the coordination of over thirty of the largest global car manufacturers, oil and gas companies, industrial gas companies, NGOs, EU Commission, governmental and clean energy organizations and Air Liquide compared the economics, sustainability and performance of the vehicles and infrastructures needed to reach the 80% decarbonisation goal set by the European Commission.

The report concluded that it is vital to develop a combination of vehicles to decarbonise mobility in Europe, with fuel cell vehicles leading the way as the lowest-carbon solution for long distance driving and family-size cars (which represent 50% of all cars and 75% of all emissions in transport).

Above all, the study shows that both electric and hydrogen infrastructures are needed, and work needs to start now to scale-up. In particular, creating a hydrogen refueling infrastructure is shown to be affordable, achievable and scalable.
