ECN: Electricity and hydrogen
Transport - Electricity and Hydrogen
Electricity and hydrogen are two energy carriers that hold the potential to significantly reduce emissions in the transport sector. The transition to the use of hydrogen and electricity is challenging and multifaceted.
ECN Policy Studies contributes to research on the transition to hydrogen and electricity use in transport in the following areas:
- Estimation of the impact of transitions on energy use and emissions.
- Study of appropriate policy measures to effectively stimulate the transition to hydrogen and electricity.
- User aspects of the transition to hydrogen and electricity.
