Keynote Title:  New Era of Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles

Abstract:  Hydrogen Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell is considered today as a promising technology for low-carbon transport applications. The successful deployment of fuel cell technology in automotive sector is a key element to reach out the European Union’s CO2 emission goal by 2050. After years of developments by research institutions and enterprises, the automotive fuel cell technology has gradually introduced to the market since 2015. In this talk, we will explore together the key technologies of modern commercial fuel cell electric vehicles, such as such as Toyota Mirai, Hyundai XCIENT, etc. The place of fuel cell technology in our future low-carbon transports and the main challenges will also be presented and discussed.
