hydrogen

This paper reviews the status of hydrogen strategies and progress in major global economies, with a particular focus on four leading jurisdictions: Japan, Germany, S. Korea, and California.

Rapid technological developments and increased concerns about climate change have spurred interest away from the internal combustion engine and the use of fossil fuels in various applications. These same technologies hold promise in a rail context. This dissertation explores fuel technologies for powering 21st century passenger and freight rail.

This study follows a deterministic modeling approach to project two scenarios of FCEV adoption and the resulting hydrogen demand (low and high) up to 2050 in California, using a transportation transition model. The study then estimates the number of hydrogen production and refueling facilities required to meet demand.

Researchers employ a least-cost infrastructure planning framework to analyze the impacts of demand, supply, and government policy uncertainties for future hydrogen supply chains. Long-term investment strategies substantially reduce system costs in all our scenarios

Researchers developed lifecycle data for hydrogen fuel production and delivery.
