Life Cycle Assessment of Hydrogen as a Transportation Fuel in the California Market Abstract The depletion of natural resources, the impact of human activities on the environment, and the expected increase in global energy consumption are primary concerns to be considered when finding new alternatives to the nation’s energy mix. In this context, hydrogen could potentially be one of the primary sustainable fuels of the future. Hydrogen is considered a clean and efficient energy carrier since its combustion releases zero emissions. It is the most abundant element in the universe, and it can be produced from a variety of processes/technologies, ensuring its production everywhere. The recent development in technologies has allowed for using hydrogen as a transportation fuel, marking what it could be the beginning of a revolution in the vehicle industry. This capstone aims to study the current situation of the hydrogen refueling market in California, an early adopter of Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEVs), followed by an analysis of the environmental impact of two production processes to produce hydrogen; the steam methane reforming and the electrolysis.

  • I Hydrogen Stations II Community Engagement
    H2 Readiness Best practices for hydrogen stations in early- adopter communities Part of the ZEV Action Plan A roadmap toward 1.5 million zero-emission vehicles on California roadways by 2025 April 2014 Fuel cell electric vehicles are powered by electricity generated in a fuel cell from hydrogen and oxygen. Hydrogen, stored on board the vehicle as a compressed gas, is safe and currently available for industrial uses. FCEVs take 5 to 7 minutes to fll at a hydrogen station and have a range similar to gasoline vehicles (250-400 miles). Hydrogen is nontoxic, noncorrosive and environmentally benign, and can be produced locally from a variety of sources including natural gas, water and biogas. In a FCEV, hydrogen is 2 to 3 times more effcient than gasoline in a conventional vehicle. Hydrogen stations are usually located at existing gas stations and dispense hydrogen as a compressed gas, similar to compressed natural gas. Hydrogen dispensers are similar in appearance to retail fuel dispensers. Hydrogen is delivered at 35 MPa or 70 MPa (5,000 psi or 10,000 psi) to a vehicle’s tank. 2 Best Practices for Hydrogen Stations Best Practices for Hydrogen Stations PB Benefts of Being an Early Market Community In March 2012, Governor Brown issued an executive order directing state government to help accelerate the market for zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) in California. The Executive Order established several milestones on a path toward 1.5 million ZEVs in California by the year 2025. ZEVs include hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) and plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs).

  • The Green Vehicle Trend: Electric, Plug-In Hybrid Or Hydrogen Fuel Cell?
    The Green Vehicle Trend: Electric, Plug-in hybrid or Hydrogen fuel cell? Fangzhu Zhang & Philip Cooke, Centre for Advanced Studies, Cardiff University, UK, email: [email protected]. 1. Introduction Energy supply security and global warming continue to challenge all countries around the world in terms of global economy and planet environment. Renewable energy technologies are being explored to meet the challenges of energy security and climate change, as well as to boost regional economic development (Zhang & Cooke, 2008). In this review, we will focus on ‘green innovation’ in transport. The transport sector represents a critical percentage of greenhouse gas emission. Transport emissions are estimated to increase by 84% to 2030 (Tomlinson, 2009). Key technologies such as hydrogen fuel cells, electric cars and biofuels are expected to contribute to emission reduction in the long run. Biofuels have been increasingly explored as a possible alternative source to gasoline with respect mainly to transport. The perspectives on biofuels are reviewed in our previous review (Zhang& Cooke, 2009). Recently, hydrogen, electric and hybrid cars have been developed and demonstrated in global automotive exhibitions. Key interests have been attracted to discuss future trends in green vehicles. Major car manufacturers seek leadership in future green vehicle markets. ‘Green vehicles’, as will be shown, directly use renewable energy sources. The current development of green vehicles by major car markers is listed in Table 1. These models are mainly at demonstration stage. In this report, the current technology status and potential development of green vehicles are reviewed and the development barriers of the technology application are discussed in order to get better understanding of the move towards cleaner energy systems.
