Hydrogen fuel is emerging as a cost-competitive and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional liquid fuels, according to research from the University of Houston.
The study, titled "Competitive Pricing of Hydrogen as an Economic Alternative to Gasoline and Diesel for the Houston Transportation Sector," explores the viability of hydrogen-powered fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) in reducing greenhouse gas emissions within the transportation sector, which annually releases over 230 million metric tons of carbon dioxide gas in Texas alone.
Despite their higher energy density, traditional liquid fuels like gasoline and diesel contribute to harmful emissions. In contrast, fuel cell electric vehicles, utilizing hydrogen, boast quick five-minute refueling times and produce zero emissions.
