Sources For "Green Hydrogen: The New Star Of The Clean Energy Revolution"

Green hydrogen is a hydrogen that is generated only from renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar. And guess what? When used for energy, its only emission is water!

“So what is green hydrogen? Simply put, it is hydrogen fuel that is created using renewable energy instead of fossil fuels. It has the potential to provide clean power for manufacturing, transportation, and more — and its only byproduct is water.” —Columbia Climate School

Medium- and heavy-duty vehicles contribute to 23% of greenhouse gas emissions in the vehicle sector!

“Transportation is the largest source of GHG emissions in the United States, making up 29 percent of all emissions. Within the transportation sector, heavy-duty vehicles are the second-largest contributor at 23 percent.” —U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

And much more energy is needed to charge these batteries and meet the power-per-mile needs of long-haul delivery trips.

“The larger per-mile energy demands, along with daily driving distances, for MHDVs require much-larger batteries. Today’s MHDV PEV batteries have as much as 660 kWh, shown in Figure ES2, while near-future concepts may exceed 1,200 kWh (100 kWh currently is about the largest battery pack found in LD vehicles). Fast charging these batteries will require substantially more power (greater than a megawatt) compared to current extreme fast charging for LD vehicles (350 kW).” —The U.S. Department of Energy
