As the car industry’s largest hybrid pusher, Toyota says it is better positioned to just buy credits to close the EPA gap rather than “waste” money on BEVs, its CEO said.
The fossil fuel industry is arguing for hydrogen because to keep costs down it will be made by natural gas reforming. Otherwise cost wise, putting 1 kWh of hydrogen into cars will be maybe 40% efficiency, then using fuel cells. So just multiply whatever your cost per electric kWh by 2,5. Hydrogen usable for stationary things like steel production though. Maybe methanol fuel cells are more viable idk
Albeit this is just off the top of my head so it’s not necessarily 100% correct. It is much more efficient to put electricity into batteries.
Oh for sure. I only brought up hydrogen because so many people didn’t know that hydrogen is so abundant and easily processed in so many forms while I was advocating for bevs.
I got a lot of hydrogen questions while talking about bevs, I don’t know why.
