Certainly, in terms of sales, electric vehicles (EV) outperform their hydrogen-fueled counterparts: in 2021, 6.6 million EVs sold versus 15,500 FCEVs. This can be attributed to the below reasons:<\/span><\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The EV charging infrastructure is more extensive than hydrogen refueling stations. As of 2021, there were <\/span><b>1.8 million public charging points for EVs<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. For even more convenience, EVs can be charged at any electrical outlet, including those in the home.<\/span><\/li><li aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The cost of running an EV is cheaper than a FCEV. Hydrogen prices hit an all-time high in November 2022, with the average price per kilo in California reaching $21.28\/kg. This equates to a <\/span><b>price per mile of $0.30<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, compared to $0.07 per mile for an EV and $0.22 per mile for a gasoline-powered car.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">EVs have a lower starting price than FCEVs and are achieving economies of scale and technological advances at a much faster rate, with the cost of batteries decreasing by 87% between 2010 and 2021.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consumers have greater choice of EVs because most of the traditional car manufacturers (Audi, BMW, Jaguar, Ford, Skoda, Volvo, Nissan, Hyundai, Toyota, Kia etc.), in addition to specialist brands like Tesla, offer a range of all-electric vehicles. Conversely the only commercially available FCEVs are the Toyota Mirai and the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hyundai Nexo.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><div>\u00a0<\/div><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, FCEVs are <\/span><b>refueled in minutes<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> compared with the <\/span><b>0.5-4 hours required for EVs<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and they also have a longer driving range. FCEV advocates also point out the environmental and social impact of mining for metals (lithium, gold, silver, cobalt, manganese, aluminum, nickel, copper, etc.) which are used in EV batteries. Hydrogen is likely to replace petroleum in larger vehicles, such as planes and trains, because the batteries required to power them would be too large and heavy to be viable.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Much like petrol and diesel, EVs and FCEVs are not direct competitors but excel in different uses. While EVs dominate the passenger car and light vehicle market, FCEVs are the more feasible option for mass transit and larger vehicles e.g. buses, trains and heavy-duty trucks.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d118cd0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"d118cd0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"844\" height=\"1008\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lookupaplate.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/hydrogen-fuel-types-gray-blue-green.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-428\" alt=\"hydrogen fuel types gray blue green\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lookupaplate.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/hydrogen-fuel-types-gray-blue-green.jpg 844w, https:\/\/www.lookupaplate.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/hydrogen-fuel-types-gray-blue-green-251x300.jpg 251w, https:\/\/www.lookupaplate.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/hydrogen-fuel-types-gray-blue-green-768x917.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 844px) 100vw, 844px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c962516 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c962516\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Is Hydrogen Really A Zero-emission Source Of Energy?\n<\/h4>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6346a20 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6346a20\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although creating electricity from hydrogen produces no emissions, <\/span><b>extracting hydrogen<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> from its compounds in the first place can <\/span><b>emit pollutants<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
