Fuel
Cell Vehicles uses hydrogen that combines with oxygen to produce energy and
is converted into electricity, which is used to power the car. The
electricity than empowers the electric motor. Instead of using hydrogen,
fuel cell vehicles can also be run on fossil fuels and bio fuels. Fuel cell
vehicles are capturing the attention of the environmentalist. These vehicles
run on renewable fuels that reduces emissions by 60 -70 percent. Following
benefits can be derived from the fuel cell vehicles : Environment Benefits :
The biggest attraction of the fuel cell vehicles is that they are pollution free. There are no polluting emissions from the fuel cell, the only byproducts are heat and water. Instead of using petrol or gas it uses hydrogen. It promises the cleaner air as compared to the other conventional vehicles. If it is launched on the wide scale it is prove advantageous to the smog choked regions of the country.
Saving oil :
Using the fuel cell vehicles reduces our dependency on fuel. Fuel cell vehicles are the environmentally sustainable transport that are based on the renewable energy sources. It will prevent the leakage of gasoline tank which results in the contamination of the ground water.
Saves Money :
Fuel cell vehicles require low maintenance costs. The customers will be able to use these vehicles like the electric generator, by connecting them to their homes and therefore decreasing their paid electricity use from the grid.
Low noise pollution :
Another major benefit of the fuel cell vehicles is that they causes low noise pollution. As they do not have any moving parts they are sound and vibration free. Fuel cell vehicles are quieter then the internal combustion engine. It also aims at improving the public health reducing the exposure to fuel and emission dangers.
Efficiency : While using the fuel cell vehicles the customers do no have to short run their expectations about the performance and range. The vehicles powered by the internal combustion engine are more cleaner and efficient than those powered by the internal combustion engine. Infact they are more reliable than the other conventional vehicles, because of the absence of the internal combustion engine.
