【摘要】Considerable attention has been paid to energy security and climate problems caused by road vehicle fleets. Fuel cell vehicles provide a new solution for reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, especially those from heavy-duty trucks. Although cost may become the key issue in fuel cell vehicle development, with technological improvements and cleaner pathways for hydrogen production, fuel cell vehicles will exhibit great potential of cost reduction. In accordance with the industrial plan in China, this study introduces five scenarios to evaluate the impact of fuel cell vehicles on the road vehicle fleet greenhouse gas emissions in China. Under the most optimistic scenario, greenhouse gas emissions generated by the whole fleet will decrease by 13.9% compared with the emissions in a scenario with no fuel cell vehicles, and heavy-duty truck greenhouse gas emissions will decrease by nearly one-fifth. greenhouse gas emissions intensity of hydrogen production will play an essential role when fuel cell vehicles’ fuel cycle greenhouse gas emissions are calculated; therefore, hydrogen production pathways will be critical in the future. 【关键词】Fuel cell vehicles; Hydrogen; Greenhouse gas emissions; Road vehicle fleet; China |
