As the global hydrogen market grows, and particularly as governments pour money into green hydrogen projects, the potential for hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles is growing.

Several of the biggest automakers have now announced new fuel cell developments and have made it clear that hydrogen cars will be a part of their offerings going forward.While many automakers have been focused on developing battery electric vehicles , another green alternative to traditional cars has been gaining momentum – the hydrogen-driven fuel cell electric vehicle .
One of the major benefits of hydrogen is that it emits only water and heat, rather than greenhouse gases, into the atmosphere. With governments and energy firms worldwide projects, automakers are increasingly seeing the potential for cars to run on this clean fuel. To make climate-friendly FCEVs, automakers must ensure that the hydrogen they are sourcing is green, rather than grey – derived from natural gas. At present, the cost of green hydrogen is far higher than carbon-emitting alternatives.
But some automakers are now taking their innovations to the public, demonstrating that they expect the future of transportation to be broader than just BEVs. In February, Honda announced it would be manufacturing a new hydrogen fuel cell system that it co-developed with GM.
