Electric vehicles are taking the world by storm, but there is already trouble on the horizon. Hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (often referred to as FCEV) are beginning to compete for the hearts and minds of the motoring public.

In the latest development, earlier this week Hyundai Motor Group announced a roadmap for the hydrogen powered future it’s calling “FCEV Vision 2030.”

Hyundai, which includes the Kia brand, is not messing around. The company plans to “drastically boost its annual fuel-cell systems production capacity by 2030” while also partnering its fuel cell technology with other auto companies as well as drones, ships, railway engines and, of course, forklifts.

Why forklifts? That’s a good question. The warehouse logistics sector has been among the early adopters to switch from batteries to fuel cells, considering it must have zero emission vehicles for indoor work.
