Africa-Press – Lesotho. Technical and economic developments in battery and fast-charging technologies could soon make fuel cell electric vehicles, which run on hydrogen, superfluous in road transport.
Road transport remains dominated by fossil fuels.
Transport is responsible for about one-quarter of all energy-related greenhouse gas emissions and about 72% of this is due to road transport1.
However, the emissions budgets implied by the Paris Agreement mean that transport should be climate neutral — that is, it should have net zero greenhouse gas emissions — within just a few decades2,3,4.
Urgent action is thus needed, and stock turnover in road transport is slow2.
