With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.

Fuel cells could be the cheaper option for energy and storage. A team of researchers at the University of Applied Sciences in Germany compared an offgrid PV-electrolyzer fuel cell system with a standalone solar-plus-storage counterpart to see which one had better economic performance. The research, which was carried out in Niger, revealed that decentralized PV-driven hydrogen had lower levelized cost of energy and levelized cost of storage compared to the PV-battery system.
