Hyundai’s hydrogen big picture goes way beyond cars and trucks

Hyundai on Monday revealed more detail about its hydrogen plans—including a comprehensive look at its work to establish a “hydrogen value chain.”

Across Hyundai Motor Group, the company now projects that by 2035 it will use 3 million metric tons annually. By Green Car Reports’ calculations, that’s enough to keep several million fuel-cell-powered light vehicles fueled.

With the overarching vision put on display at CES this week in Las Vegas, Hyundai demonstrates that its hydrogen-focused HTWO business now enables each stage of the clean hydrogen value chain, from production to storage, transportation, and use.
