Field Demonstration of Hydrogen PEM Fuel Cell/Lithium-ion Battery Hybrid Electric Scooters in Taiwan

摘要

The proton exchange membrane fuel cell possesses the inherent benefit of low operating temperature, rapid start-up, and high power density, which makes it the ideal power source for electric vehicles. The fuel cell vehicle is envisioned as the vehicle of the future in response to environmental, economic and political constraints. Taiwan is one of the major producers and consumer of ICE-powered scooters in the world. The purpose of this field demonstration project is to prototype the fuel-cell-powered hybrid scooter both in performance and logistic support for mass adoption of this next generation commuting vehicle in Taiwan.
