Commercial Vehicle eMobility – potential electrified solutions

Hydrogen Combustion like hydrogen fuels cells will require a developed green hydrogen infrastructure to be successful. Technology for hydrogen combustion needs to improve further (preventing H2 leakage, preventing preignition, safely coping with high water output). However, the operational model and lower initial vehicle cost make this route an attractive proposition.

Due to the high cost and PM/NOx emissions, solutions such as power-to-liquid eFuels are only expected to serve applications such as aviation.

An everchanging landscape

eMobility is constantly changing, with multiple electrified solutions being developed to support new technology. This makes it imperative that the correct lubrication is being developed alongside this eVolving landscape. Early collaboration is the key and at Afton, we can support each OEM in finding their perfect lubrication strategy to get the best performance from the potential electrified solution they choose. For more information on how we do this and why collaboration is important, read our final electrified Commercial Vehicle article.
