Advanced Fuel Cells

News

This article spotlights the current deployment status of fuel cells in road transport at the end of 2023.

Approaching 90.000 FCVs on the road at the end of 2023.

This report provides an overview of the current status of fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) and hydrogen refueling station infrastructure, based on data collected by the IEA Technology Collaboration Programme on Advanced Fuel Cells. As of December 2023, the global fleet of FCVs nears 90,000, serviced by over 1,200 hydrogen stations. The report also highlights the growth of heavy-duty trucks and the continued expansion of hydrogen stations, particularly in China, South Korea, and Japan.
You can find more information on the analysis of this data and the development of the numbers of FCVs between 2017 and 2023 in the report.
