Fuel Cell Vehicles: Future of Green Mobility?

The implementation of strict emission norms and regulations regarding fuel-efficiency in several countries, on account of the escalating pollution levels and rapid deterioration of the environment, is positively impacting the worldwide demand for fuel cell vehicles. For example, the European Union intends to reduce vehicular emissions by as much as 80% by 2050, from the levels reported in 1990, by promoting the deployment of green automobiles. Furthermore, the U.S. Environmental Protection Act (EPA) was enacted for encouraging the adoption of fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) in order to mitigate carbon dioxide emissions.

Several countries are also planning to ban the manufacturing and sales of diesel and gasoline-powered vehicles in the coming years. For example, the U.K., France, Norway, the Netherlands, and India aim to ban the manufacturing and sales of diesel and gasoline-powered vehicles in the coming years (over 2025–2040 period). These measures will support the expansion of the fuel cell vehicle market during 2019–2024. Apart from enabling environment-friendly transportation and providing higher fuel efficiency, fuel cell vehicles also provide an enhanced driving experience. 

Fuel Cell Vehicle Market Outlook


Geographically, the sales of fuel cell vehicles were observed to be the highest in North America during the last few years. The U.S. dominated the North American fuel cell vehicle market in the years gone by, as per the observations of P&S Intelligence, a market research company based in India. As the U.S. government is fully focused on stopping the manufacturing and sales of oil and gas-powered vehicles in the coming years, it is providing various financial incentives and implementing supportive policies for encouraging the adoption of new energy vehicles in the country. 

Thus, it can be said with surety that the sales of fuel cell vehicles will surge in the coming years, primarily because of the growing requirement for eco-friendly vehicles and the increasing implementation of stringent emission regulations by the governments of several countries in order to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases and mitigate the escalating pollution levels.
