The case for hydrogen trucks | Grid limitations will make long-distance battery-electric haulage ''near impossible'': Hyzon Motors CEO | Recharge

For a hydrogen-fuel advocate, Craig Knight, the CEO and co-founder of US hydrogen truck and bus maker Hyzon Motors, is surprisingly cynical about the zero-emissions gas. He does not see a bright future for hydrogen cars, admits that green H 2 can be considered an inefficient use of renewable electricity, believes that trucking hydrogen to filling stations is …

Batteries Comparing to Hydrogen Fuel Cells

As a result, there needs to be more infrastructure setup for hydrogen, and it will need to go through the transition phase that battery vehicles had to go through for their charging infrastructure. Thus, the production and transportation costs for hydrogen are much higher than the electric power generation and transmission for battery vehicles.
