As a countermeasure to the greenhouse gas problem, the world is focusing on alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs). The most prominent alternatives are battery electric vehicles (BEV) and fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs). This study examines FCEVs, especially considering hydrogen refueling stations to fill the gap in the research. Many studies suggest the important impact that infrastructure has on the diffusion of AFVs, but they do not provide quantitative preferences for the design of hydrogen refueling stations. This study analyzes and presents a consumer preference structure for hydrogen refueling stations, considering the production method, distance, probability of failure to refuel, number of dispensers, and fuel costs as core attributes. For the analysis, stated preference data are applied to choice experiments, and mixed logit is used for the estimation. Results indicate that the supply stability of hydrogen refueling stations is the second most important attribute following fuel price. Consumers are willing to pay more for green hydrogen compared to gray hydrogen, which is hydrogen produced by fossil fuels. Driver fuel type and perception of hydrogen energy influence structure preference. Our results suggest a specific design for hydrogen refueling stations based on the characteristics of user groups.

“…The dominant type of alternative energy vehicle for the future is being discussed. Although FCEVs are growing at a slower pace than BEVs, they may have advantages in travelable miles on a full charge [6] and reducing refueling time [7]. Due to the reasons mentioned above, this study examines FCEVs as zero emission alternatives.…”

“…The vehicle traction force F T , is given as the sum of the aerodynamic drag force F D , the rolling resistance force F R , and the climbing resistance force F G ,

T_{normalT} = F_{normalD} + F_{normalR} + F_{normalG},

where the aerodynamic drag force corresponds to the wind force on the vehicle in motion and depends on the air density Ρ air , the wind speed v W, and direction of the wind, the aerodynamic drag coefficient c D , the frontal area A f of the vehicle, and the vehicle speed v T , as follows [6]:

F_{normalD} = \frac{1}{2} ρ_{air} C_{normalD} A_{normalF} {(v_{T} + v_{W})}^{2} .

Electric transport has been gaining more interest and importance in the last years. Moreover, the variety of transport systems driven by an electric motor has also been increased. Therefore, it is very important to provide engineering students with solid and comprehensible knowledge, as well as handly tools, for modeling an electric traction system. So far, this has been a difficult task for undergraduate students due to a variety of subjects involved, such as electric machines, power converters, control systems, and load estimations. This work is intended to provide a detailed and comprehensible description of the analysis, modeling, and implementation of a powertrain of a light utility vehicle using power electronics simulation (PSIM) commercial software in order that the student acquires the required knowledge for analyzing multiple configurations in the powertrain.

“…FCVs are hybrid‐electric vehicles (HEV) with a fuel cell (FC) as the primary power source for the traction drive [2, 3]. The FC is a low‐voltage source and requires a boost converter at the FC output to increase the dc link voltage at the input to the traction drive, thereby reducing the inverter and motor losses in the traction drive system [4]. The FC is a unidirectional power source and so requires secondary power sources, such as batteries and supercapacitors (SCAPs), to absorb regenerative braking energy [5].…”

This study presents a novel energy management strategy (EMS) which outperforms the published strategies developed for an international technology challenge, IEEE Vehicular Technology Society (VTS) Motor Vehicles Challenge 2017. The objective of the strategy is to minimise the cost of ownership of a low-power (15 kW) fuel cell (FC)-battery electric vehicle. Both the fuel consumption cost and power sources degradation costs are combined to represent the total cost of ownership. The simple adaptive rule-based strategy optimises the FC operation during low-traction power operation and switches to battery charge-sustaining operation for high traction power operation. This minimises fuel consumption and increases the lifetimes of the FC and of the battery. The strategy is then compared with the EMS of the 2015 Toyota Mirai, and the challenge vehicle model is modified to capture the learnings from the Mirai. Finally, a cost-benefit analysis for a plug-in FC vehicle is considered in order to improve FC lifetimes and to reduce costs for short drive cycles.
