Hydrogen as a promising energy carrier

"The fuel cell is the most consistent form of electric driving." Peter Mertens, former head of development at Audi.

Alternative drives for the mobility of the future dominate the day-to-day business of automotive OEMs in the development areas. Currently, the electrification of the drive for purely battery electric passenger cars (BEV) and hybrid systems plays the main role. In the last 5 years, significant technological leaps have been made in cell technology and battery module technology, which enable a BEV to achieve a mileage of between 70,000 and 140,000 km at the same cost as a corresponding diesel model.
