“…The large-scale deployment of renewable energy sources has been driven by the proposal of carbon neutrality targets in several countries to reduce the excessive consumption of fossil fuels, which has led to their depletion accompanied by increased global warming of the atmosphere [1][2][3][4]. Moreover, the intensified global efforts to address climate change and the acceleration of the green economy in the post-pandemic period have contributed to this advancement [2,[5][6][7], seeking to achieve sustainable development goals [8].…”

This paper aims to perform a systematic review, with a bibliometric approach, of the techno-economic evaluation studies of hydrogen production. To achieve this objective, a comprehensive outline of hydrogen production processes from fossil and renewable sources is presented. The results reveal that electrolysis, classified as water splitting, is the most investigated process in the literature since it contributes to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and presents other advantages, such as maturity and applicability, energy efficiency, flexibility, and energy storage potential. In addition, the processes of gasification, classified as thermochemical, and steam reforming, classified as catalytic reforming, are worth mentioning. Regarding the biological category, there is a balance between research on photo fermentation and dark fermentation. The literature on the techno-economic evaluation of hydrogen production highlights significant gaps, including a scarcity of comprehensive studies, a lack of emphasis on commercial viability, an absence of sensitivity analysis, and the need for comparative analyses between production technologies.

“…This represents 23% of global energy-related CO 2 emissions, where the road transport sector, which is highly dependent on the use of petroleum-based fuels, accounts for 70% of this total [1]. Thus, policy makers and other stakeholders have been looking for demand management solutions, combined with new technologies and emerging options in advanced biofuels and hydrogen-based fuels, in order to reduce these climate-changing emissions as global warming continues [2,3]. One of the most promising technologies is electric mobility, which consists of the use of vehicles, such as scooters, bicycles, cars, buses and trucks, that use electricity as a primary energy source [4,5] for the daily commuting of passengers and freights, which should be supported by sustainable energy production (cleaner power generation) for recharging (e.g., wind, solar, photovoltaic, etc.)…”

Action Plan Focused on Electric Mobility (APOEM): A Tool for Assessment of the Potential Environmental Benefits of Urban Mobility

et al. 2023

The promotion of electric mobility has the potential to reduce several impacts of the road transport sector, such as increased emissions of greenhouse gas (GHG) and air pollutants and natural resource depletion. As such, decision makers and other stakeholders around the world have invested significant efforts in the transition to sustainable urban mobility based on the use of electric vehicles. However, there are few studies that investigate the potential benefits of electric mobility in all its facets; i.e., most focus on analyzing the benefits of replacing conventional cars while leaving aside other means of transportation with greater use and, consequently, higher emissions, such as, primarily, public transport and freight transport vehicles. Thus, this study aims to develop an action plan focused on electric mobility—APOEM, which stipulates gradual implementation steps in a time horizon of 5 years. For this purpose, a city with potential for electric mobility implementation called Atibaia, in the countryside of the State of São Paulo, in Brazil, is investigated. The results show that, in an ambitious scenario of electric vehicle deployment in the City of Atibaia, which presents energy supply compatible with demand, it would be possible to reduce a total of 30,788.70 tons of GHG in 5 years, and, as for emissions of air pollutants, it would be possible to reduce 140.38 tons of CO, 36.38 tons of NMHC, 1.58 tons of RCHO, 130.20 tons of NOx, 3.54 tons of MP and 0.75 tons of SO2 in 5 years. It is also worth noting that, in order for electrification to generate a greater contribution to the environment, it is necessary that electric mobility be generated from renewable energy sources.
