Fundamentals of Hydrogen Production and Utilization in Fuel Cell Systems provides a comprehensive overview of the complex and interdisciplinary issues surrounding the use of hydrogen fuel cells in the global transportation system. With a particular emphasis on the commercialization and implementation of hydrogen fuel cells, the book deals with production, utilization, storage and safety, and addresses the application of fuel cells in the road, rail, maritime and aviation sectors. For each sector, the book discusses the fundamentals of fuel cells, the current technical, environmental, safety, and economic performance, the main barriers to implementation and how to address themThis book is an invaluable reference for researchers, graduate students and industry engineers across the fuel cells and transportation sector, but is also ideal for policymakers involved in the energy transition.
