The hydrogen economy is the answer to South Africa’s decarbonised mobility future to avoid battery electric vehicles (BEVs) sapping up too much of South Africa’s already scarce electricity, Royal Bafokeng Platinum (RBPlat) CEO Steve Phiri said on Tuesday. Hydrogen is increasingly seen as being central to climate change mitigation, with platinum, in turn, central to hydrogen. This is because hydrogen-converting fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) are the 100% route to carbon-free driving in a world that is demanding decarbonisation.
