Fuel Cells and Electrolysers
Fuel Cells produce electricity using Electrolysers make hydrogen by Hydrogen splitting water with electricity
Commercial Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles to market in 2015 (FCEV)
No Range Anxiety: 500 km Short Refueling Time: 3 to 5 minutes, ~ 5 kg per tank @ 700bar Ambient Temperature: Capable of -40oC operation 3
FCEVs are perfectly suited for medium-to-heavy duty transportation

14 Due to the Intermittent nature of wind power, High penetration in the grid can be a challenge
Data: GWEC “20% of the total power consumed is renewable and 30% of the wind production is curtailed”
