Mobility ecosystem : fuel cells

Fuel cells convert the chemical energy of reactants (hydrogen, air) into water and exhaust heat, thus providing clean energy generation for both stationary and transport uses. In transportation, fuel cells are particularly useful for long-haul heavy-duty vehicles thanks to the shorter re-fuel times and longer autonomy compared with battery-powered vehicles. However, the commercialisation of fuel cell electric vehicles is not yet widespread. The EU promotes the adoption of heat pumps as part of its broader strategies like the REPowerEU plan and the European Green Deal.
