Hydrogen-powered cars could slash fuel costs and emissions for drivers.
This article explores a way to make hydrogen production and selling more efficient at hydrogen stations for fuel cell vehicles. By using a system that electrolyzes water to create hydrogen, they aim to optimize costs based on electricity and methanol prices. The model they developed helps the hydrogen stations adjust their operations to save money during peak electricity prices and fluctuations in methanol costs. The study provides a roadmap for hydrogen stations to adapt and cut costs in response to changing energy prices, supporting the growth and stability of hydrogen as a clean energy source.
