HYDROGEN FUEL CELL VEHICLES (FCVs) Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicles (EPA) https://www.epa.gov/greenvehicles/hydrogen-fuel-cell-vehicles Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicles (FCVs) are similar to electric vehicles (EVs) in that they use an electric motor instead of an internal combustion engine to power the wheels. However, while EVs run on batteries that must be plugged in to recharge, FCVs generate their electricity onboard. In a fuel cell, hydrogen (H2) gas from the vehicleÕs fuel tank combines with oxygen (O2) from the air to generate electricity with only water and heat as byproducts of the process.
