H2 ICE trucking : Total cost of ownership considerations
Reference
Based on the paper submitted by Westport Fuel Systems at the 43rd International Vienna Motor Symposium, 2022
“High Performance Hydrogen Engine Applications Using Westport Fuel Systems’ Commercially Available HPDI Technology”
This is an attempt to deconvolute some of the total cost of ownership information provided in the reference paper. Do not attribute the mistakes / omissions to the original authors. The idea is simply to get a handle on some of the costs assumed in such studies and refine them based on availability of more information.
