The need for alternative and renewable transportation fuels continues to be high on the nation's agenda. Substituting these fuels for petroleum can reduce dependence on foreign oil imports, improve air quality, and mitigate greenhouse gases. Renewable fuels offer the same advantages as...

The large amount of CO2 emissions and of fossil fuel consumption caused by the transportation sector makes the sector central for attaining the EU energy and climate policy targets. Consequently, new propulsion systems are developed in the automotive industry, which currently have cost...

Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) energy transfer in a smart grid environment opens a new revenue opportunity for electric-drive vehicles (EVs), and might reduce grid operation costs in demand-constrained urban feeders where peak-electricity prices are high. This paper analyses the peak demand energy market...

This article explores the possibilities of substituting internal combustion vehicles (ICV) by fuel cell vehicles (FCV) refueled with hydrogen generated by electrolysis during the hours of low demand in the electrical grid, having been estimated that this substitution ratio would be below 25% of...
