Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles have made remarkable progress in the real world, largely attributed to their proven advantages in terms of fuel economy and reduced pollutant emissions. These vehicles play a pivotal role in bolstering the performance of the transportation system and contribute significantly to the ambitious goal of decarbonization. The field of hydrogen fuel cell vehicle technologies has seen a plethora of propulsion concepts and cutting-edge technologies emerge, ranging from power electronic drive systems and battery technology to electronic control systems and advanced materials and body structures for electric vehicles.
The purpose of this Special Issue in Energies is to gather and showcase these state-of-the-art advancements in hydrogen fuel cell vehicle technologies. These innovations hold the potential to revolutionize vehicle performance, optimize power system management, increase the vehicle operating range per charge, enable rapid acceleration, and ultimately lower the overall life cycle costs of these vehicles. However, the successful implementation of these technologies will also require the introduction of new regulations and economic approaches, as well as active involvement and collaboration with system users.
By highlighting the latest developments in hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles, this Special Issue aims to foster a cleaner and more sustainable future for the automotive industry. Through collaborative efforts and innovative solutions, we can pave the way towards a greener and more efficient transportation system that benefits both society and the environment.
