Evaluation of the feasibility of using fuel cells in passenger cars

Abstract

This project was conceived to evaluate the commercial prospects for fuel cell powered passenger cars in the UK and Western Europe, over the time-frame to 2010. First of all the existing market place was examined and reasons for buying particular vehicles and or size of vehicle was established. The conclusion was that there was a market potential of 32,250 pa in UK (244,000 pa Western Europe) of a 'C' Sector sized car using a fuel cell engine provided it sold at no more that 1000 pounds sterling above the conventional price.
