Description
Summary:The subject of the analytical review is the power units of electric vehicles using hydrogen fuel cells. A prerequisite of the research is the ever-increasing urgency of developing vehicles with zero emission of carbon dioxide and other harmful substances. Materials are taken both from open sources of information (Internet) and from scientifically reliable sources of information (peer-reviewed publications). The scientific methods of performing this analysis include an informative review of sources. Originality lies in the choice of the topic and the findings from the analysis. As a result of the analytical review the tendencies of the automobile market development have been revealed; the technical advantages of hydrogen fuel cells as compared to batteries have been given; the conclusions have been drawn about the availability of the programs of carbon dioxide emission reduction in the European Union, the USA, Japan, China, Korea as well as about the readiness of the technology of the fuel cells use in the traction electric drive for the introduction, including the patenting of the technologies by the leading automobile manufacturers; the most promising segments of transport for this purpose have been described. The results of the analysis are applicable to the design of electric vehicles and their power plants by vehicle designers and manufacturers.
