Can fuel cells become a mass-produced option globally for heavy-duty trucks 2030+?
This study is mainly a total-cost-of-ownership calculation of four different powertrains for heavy-duty trucks for three different customer mission profiles, long haul, regional and urban distributions. The powertrain alternatives were diesel, batteries, electric road systems and fuel cells. Also, the calculations were made for three main markets for heavy-duty trucks; Germany, USA and China. Everything was calculated for cost levels that could be relevant for the year 2030. Therefore, it was assumed cost levels of mass-market volume, for example batteries and fuel cells are assumed. Another important prerequisite was that high utilization of for example hydrogen stations and charging infrastructure is assumed.
