Viability analysis for use of hydrogen as fuel in logistics centers

2017 
The electricity cost in battery logistic center is cheaper (access to electricity grid with three period contract) that green hydrogen cost in hydrogen logistic center (hydrogen production plant, hydrogen transport and hydrogen refueling station in logistic center). The investment cost of hydrogen logistic center is cheaper (hydrogen forklift) than battery logistic center (battery forklift, second battery, battery charger and batteries area). The operation and maintenance cost for hydrogen logistic center is cheaper (hydrogen cost, stack replacement and fuel cell forklift maintenance) than battery logistic center (electricity cost, battery replacement, battery forklift maintenance, battery charger, battery area maintenance and additional employee). The key factor for hydrogen logistic centers is to need less employees for the same work.
