Application of hydrogen in the automotive industry

The deployment of hydrogen and fuel cell serves the goal of reducing the dependence on fossil fuels and reducing GHG emissions. In this paper, the recent progress in hydrogen fuel cell engines is reviewed to investigate the feasibility of using hydrogen as the main fuel in transportation systems. Hydrogen presents the possibility for the establishment of a low-carbon society in the future energy landscape with its attribute of zero carbon content. Energy can be stored in the form of hydrogen at a large scale for a long time, overcoming the limitations of current renewable energy storage. Hydrogen can be produced from fossil fuels and RESs and can be used widely in the areas of energy storage, transportation, and chemical industry. The using of hydrogen in vehicles has been categorized into two main categories as designs in which hydrogen is burned and energy is generated by conversion to electricity.
