Integration of renewable hydrogen in light-duty vehicle: nexus between energy security and low carbon emission resources

摘要

This study employed a linear programming model to assess the potential of renewable hydrogen power and its impact on electricity prices and measured the possible demand of wind-generated renewable hydrogen for light-duty vehicles. The findings demonstrate that Pakistan has sufficient wind-generated renewable power potential, and its light-duty vehicles could shift to renewable energy. The findings of this research recommend a policy shift to light-duty hydrogen-based vehicles to eliminate fossil fuel imports and ensure green supplies. With a shift to hydrogen-based vehicles, the government could ensure maximum revenue and green supplies. The study provides valuable guidelines for decision-makers.
