I had a fascinating discussion with Ang Zhao at Chinese think tank REEI about the governance of fuel cell vehicles in Japan, California and Germany. Podcast is here: https://t.co/9tbl0VBcwg
Our just published paper on the drivers and barriers to hydrogen mobility in Germany is based on 17 interviews with industry and researchers and a survey with 28 experts. https://t.co/xRShczLg8i
Our paper on the barriers and drivers affecting the adoption of fuel cell vehicles and buses in Germany was published today in "Energies" open access. Mixed successes in Germany. Hoping to see more vehicles soon. https://t.co/xRShczLg8i
Big news from Japan: The Japanese Steel Federation has pledged to hit carbon neutrality by 2050 (using hydrogen and electric furnaces): https://t.co/Mc1L5QRnpi
Excellent news. The national Japanese government is reported to be formulating a ban on gasoline vehicles by mid-2035. This would also involve regulations or incentives for automakers to speed the production of zero emission vehicles https://t.co/DdQCYr11Wr
My new paper on strategies used in California to accelerate the production and diffusion of fuel cell electric vehicles was just published in Energy Reports as open access: https://t.co/9p4wRP3bpa Thanks to all the folk in California who assisted this with interviews!
Our article on the socio-technical lock-in of coal has been published open access in journal Energy Research and Social Science: https://t.co/IsUmZtlkfL
We apply our framework to the case of Japan.
Interesting analysis of the effects of Japanese government decision to retire 100 old coal units . The upshot: won't reduce drastically Japan's coal dependance by 2030
We are doing a special issue on the governance of strategies to accelerate the production of hydrogen and fuel-cells in Energies. Please consider submitting an article by Jan 10, 2021. https://t.co/lkkm5vQeAV
