Abstract :
Fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) are currently attracting attention as a new form of zero-emission vehicles, just as the commercialization of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) is underway. In the prior 20 years, however, FCEVs failed to be properly commercialized. In this paper, a new approach to the emerging economy of FCEVs and a hydrogen refueling station (HRS) network are studied.
