Description
This book aims to analyze the various factors that underlie the latest fuel cell heavy-duty vehicles (FCHDVs) development in China. Current trends like China’s carbon strategy “Carbon Peaking by 2030, and Carbon Neutral by 2060”, and the 14th Five-year plan on new energy development all signaled the grand start on China’s energy sustainable transition. The transportation sector is one of the biggest CO2 emitters in this system. It has been estimated that 1 standard diesel heavy-duty vehicle’s emission could potentially account for that of 100 normal gasoline-powered passenger vehicles’. Thus, it is imperative to decarbonize China’s heavy transportation sector. FCHDVs, like the one of the near-zero emission transport, gradually gained attractions in the energy industry.
