China Unveils 100kg Liquid-hydrogen Fuel System That Could Allow a Truck to Travel 1,300km Without Refueling.

China Unveils 100kg Liquid-hydrogen Fuel System That Could Allow a Truck to Travel 1,300km Without Refueling - Merchant Navy Info - News

Introduction

In the modern day world of energy things are shaping up in ways in which fossil fuels are being rolled back. The Chinese in particular have serious concerns about importing oil over thousands of miles across trade choke points. This is the reason that China is leading the push to try to cut down its reliance on oil. We are increasingly seeing the Chinese move into this industry more aggressively.

The Chinese moves will continue to alter the energy market as we know it and lead to major changes in daily lives and also global energy markets.

Also, another important thing of note is that China is still going for more coal projects. So we can say that this new change of heart is more due to Chinese concerns with imported oil as opposed to fossil fuels on the whole.

Chinese Liquid Hydrogen Systems are going to transform the energy sector

A liquid-hydrogen fueling system for trucks has been unveiled. This system comprises a “breakthrough” 100kg fuel tank. China Aerospace and Technology Corporation (CASC), a Chinese state-owned company, has unveiled this fueling system.

A German automaker named Daimler has previously road-tested a fully loaded truck. He loaded the truck with 80kg of liquid hydrogen stored in onboard tanks. The truck could travel 1,047km without refueling.

Conclusion about the hydrogen fuel system

The Chinese are rapidly out doing the biggest energy giants of the world with their transformation of the energy markets. China is now also taking the lead when it comes to electric vehicles where it is outdoing Tesla. These changes will have major impacts on consumers world wide. In fact if this technology disseminates more it could mean the beginning of the end for the oil based economies of the MIddle East.

At the same time countries like China, India, Pakistan and Bangladesh would benefit a lot. These countries are currently beset with imported energy issues which would also be sorted out.
