An increase in electricity production from Renewable Energy Sources (RES) requires a consequent reinforcement of the transmission and distribution grids to deliver the energy towards the end-users.

Abstract
An increase in electricity production from Renewable Energy Sources (RES) requires a consequent reinforcement of the transmission and distribution grids to deliver the energy towards the end-users. Since this has a great economic impact, a possible solution is the hydrogen production to be converted in electricity through fuel cells. This process has a low efficiency, but can be suitable for transportation, both for railway and road applications.This paper aims to compare the energy efficiency of the hydrogen applied directly in a fuel cell vehicle (FCV) or converted in electricity for a fast charge of a battery electric vehicle (BEV) in long distance journeys.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
