A liquid-hydrogen fuelling system for trucks that includes a “breakthrough” 100kg fuel tank has been unveiled by Chinese state-owned company China Aerospace and Technology Corporation (CASC).
German automaker Daimler has previously road-tested a fully-loaded truck with 80kg of liquid hydrogen stored in onboard tanks, which travelled 1,047km without refuelling.
Reminder that BEV fanatics are still stuck in the past. It's laughable they're still repeating the same outdated garbage from 2014. They still think batteries costs are dropping (just an illusion caused by China's subsidies), or that charging is somehow already solved (not even close).
In reality, BEVs are on their way out. It is already losing to PHEVs and hybrids now. Newer ideas like FCEVs will drive them entirely out of the market later.
On the potential for green H2 cost reductions through experience:
"electrolyzers account for only around one third of the cost of green hydrogen. The rest is driven either by the cost of green electricity – already far down its own experience curve – or by the cost of heavy engineering components – stuff like compressors, tanks, valves, pipes, power supplies and site infrastructure, which are not about to fall off a cliff."
