Method and Apparatus for Providing Information on Greenhouse Gas Emissions of Hydrogen Vehicles - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18346574 titled 'Method and Apparatus for Providing Information on Greenhouse Gas Emissions of Hydrogen Vehicles
Simplified Explanation
The present invention discloses a method and apparatus for providing information on the greenhouse gas emissions of a hydrogen vehicle. The method involves receiving driving information from the vehicle, determining the filling station where hydrogen filling is performed, and calculating the greenhouse gas emissions based on the hydrogen production method of the filling station and the driving information.
- Driving information is collected from the vehicle.
- The filling station where hydrogen is filled is determined based on the driving information.
- Greenhouse gas emissions of the vehicle are calculated using the hydrogen production method of the filling station and the driving information.
Potential Applications
This technology can be applied in the automotive industry to provide consumers with information on the environmental impact of using hydrogen vehicles. It can also be used by policymakers to assess the overall greenhouse gas emissions of hydrogen vehicles and make informed decisions regarding their promotion and adoption.
Problems Solved
This technology addresses the lack of transparency regarding the greenhouse gas emissions of hydrogen vehicles. By providing accurate information on the environmental impact of using hydrogen as a fuel source, it helps consumers and policymakers make more sustainable choices.
Benefits
- Increased awareness of the environmental impact of hydrogen vehicles - Encourages the adoption of sustainable transportation options - Supports efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the automotive sector
Potential Commercial Applications
- Automotive manufacturers can use this technology to promote the environmental benefits of hydrogen vehicles. - Filling station operators can optimize their hydrogen production methods to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. - Environmental organizations can use this information to advocate for the adoption of hydrogen vehicles as a cleaner alternative to traditional gasoline-powered vehicles.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be systems that track the carbon footprint of electric vehicles based on the source of electricity used for charging. These systems are similar in concept to the present invention but focus on electric vehicles rather than hydrogen vehicles.
