Hydrogen Engine

Hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engines (H2ICEs) are a potential near-term option and bridge to hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. H2ICEs with near-zero emissions and efficiencies exceeding today’s port-fuel-injected (PFI) engines have already been demonstrated. In addition, H2ICE-powered vehicles can potentially use the existing manufacturing infrastructure for petroleum-fueled ICEs.
