Battery electric vehicles have a much higher efficiency rate compared to other types of renewables-based propulsion systems. Only ** percent of energy was lost when using renewable electricity to directly charge a battery electric vehicle. By comparison, green hydrogen-run fuel cell vehicles suffered a ** percent energy loss due to electrolysis and transportation and storage alone, bringing fuel production efficiency to ** percent and overall efficiency (when taking into account hydrogen to electricity conversion and engine efficiency) down to just ** percent.
