J Johnson, Can hydrogen fuel-cells decarbonise freight transport? Energy World, November 2019, p 28
In the world of fuel-cell propulsion, it appears that this technology is more suited than batteries to heavy duty trucks and shipping, although these must be available to act as a buffer between energy production and demand. Nikola states that their truck weighs 2270 kg less that its battery-powered counterpart. The Energy Observer, a hydrogen-fuelled container ship using solar panels for an inboard electrolyser, is on a six-year global voyage.
