Excerpt

The article delves into the critical role of hydrogen-based drive systems in decarbonizing the commercial vehicle sector, particularly in heavy-duty and long-distance transportation. It compares different configurations of fuel cell systems for heavy commercial vehicles, evaluating their performance, efficiency, aging, and overall operating costs. Additionally, the text explores the benefits of methanol as an energy source, presenting a reformed methanol fuel cell system that converts methanol into hydrogen onboard the vehicle. The article also features an interview with a senior executive from Bosch, discussing the requirements for successful defossilization in the commercial vehicle sector. This comprehensive analysis offers valuable insights into the potential of hydrogen and methanol in achieving rapid defossilization, making it a must-read for professionals in the field.
