and the Institute for Powertrains and Automotive Technology (IFA), Vienna University of Technology; Slide: Copyright © PHINIA)   Looking at the global landscape for fuels we can see a notable shift towards alternative fuels. In California, for example, 50 % of the diesel fuel used consists of HVO (hydrogenated vegetable oil). In Central and South America, there is an initiative to use national ethanol feedstocks, while Europe has been recog...

Quick charging on the motor way however is quite expensive. Gaseous hydrogen is at a comparable cost level with the 2G advanced hydrotreated vegetable oils (HVO) and sustainable aviation fuels (SAF), and also quick charging. The production of liquid hydrogen on the other hand is a bit more expensive and fi...
