April 20: Hydrogen Internal Combustion Engine 

Time: 1-3pm Paris (CEST) | 7-9am New York City (EDT) | 7-9pm Beijing (CST)

A hydrogen infrastructure, which is expected to be in place by 2030, is reviving the debate on the most appropriate use of hydrogen. One advantage of fuel cells is their high degree of efficiency at low loads. However, at some higher loads, efficiency decreases compared to a hydrogen ICE, which has less efficiency at low loads, but more efficiency as the load increases. In other words, efficiency benefits vary and are dependent on the load.

This session will show how a hydrogen ICE is a robust, cost-efficient option for zero CO2 mobility applications that can be quickly implemented with the  current production infrastructure. Additionally retrofitting existing Diesel engines for the use of hydrogen offers great opportunities for short term CO2 reductions, especially for applications with a long lifespan (e.g. marine).
