Hydrogen fuel cell (low‑voltage vehicle application)

The core technology in the Lugo prototype is a hydrogen fuel cell that powers an electric drivetrain at about 48 V, turning chemical energy from hydrogen into electricity for vehicle propulsion without direct tailpipe CO2 emissions.[2][10] Fuel‑cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) typically use compressed hydrogen stored in onboard tanks and a stack of fuel cells that produce electricity continuously while hydrogen and oxygen are supplied, emitting mainly water vapour as exhaust.[10]
