📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters

日本のGX文脈において

日本は2023年に改定した「水素基本戦略」で水素供給量とコスト目標を掲げており、本稿の超=包括的な技術・政策レビューは日本の水素戦略の文脈で参考になる。ただし日本固有の分析はなく、一般的な知見の整理に留まる。

In the global GX context

Globally, hydrogen is gaining momentum as a key decarbonization vector, with major policies in the EU, US (IRA), and Japan. This review summarizes the technical and economic barriers that need to be addressed for hydrogen to scale, offering a useful baseline but no novel empirical evidence.

📄 Abstract(原文)

This review aims to present an overview of the current state of hydrogen fuel cell technology. Hydrogen fuel cells (HFCs) are emerging as one of the most promising technologies to support the global transition toward cleaner and more sustainable energy systems. By converting hydrogen directly into electricity through an electrochemical process, fuel cells offer several advantages over conventional combustion-based technologies, including higher energy efficiency, near-zero emissions at the point of use, and flexibility across a wide range of applications. In particular, HFCs are gaining momentum in the transportation sector, where they enable long driving ranges and rapid refueling for passenger cars, buses, and heavy-duty vehicles. They are also being deployed in stationary power generation, backup energy systems, and increasingly explored in industrial processes as part of decarbonization strategies. Despite these benefits, the widespread adoption of hydrogen fuel cells is constrained by challenges such as the high cost of materials, limited infrastructure for hydrogen production and distribution, and the current reliance on fossilfuel-derived hydrogen. Ongoing research is focused on developing cost-effective catalysts, efficient hydrogen storage methods, and scaling up the production of green hydrogen from renewable sources. Governments, industries, and international collaborations are also investing heavily in policies and infrastructure that support the growth of the hydrogen economy. Also this review aims to present hydrogen fuel cell technology, examine its advantages and limitations, and explore its potential role in shaping future energy systems. By addressing technical, economic, and policy barriers, hydrogen fuel cells can evolve from a niche solution into a mainstream contributor to global sustainability goals.
