Marginal Analysis of the HFCVs Industrialization: Commercialization Scale and the CO₂ Emission Reduction

Abstract:

Focus on the hydrogen fuel cell vehicle industrialization barriers, the paper applies the marginal analysis into the CO₂ emission reduction of the HFCV. Based on the outputs of the GREET model, the CO₂ emission reduction amount of the HFCVs, the CO₂ emissions amount of HFCVs and the scale of the HFCV are calculated separately. Then we build the formulas of the above variables so that the marginal curve of the CO₂ emission reduction and the commercialization scale of HFCVs are mapped. The conclusion shows the marginal analyze could play a useful role in the CO₂ emission reduction estimation of the HFCV industrialization.
