The table below lists some potential advantages and disadvantages of using hydrogen-oxygen fuel cells instead of rechargeable batteries to power electric vehicles.

AdvantageDisadvantage
AHydrogen gas is easy to liquefy and store at room temperature.The only by-product of their operation is carbon dioxide, CO2\text{CO}_2CO2​.
BThey can be refueled quickly and do not require hours of electric recharging.The hydrogen fuel is often produced from fossil fuels, which releases greenhouse gases.
CThey operate silently and have no moving parts.They produce high levels of harmful nitrogen oxide (NOx\text{NO}_xNOx​) emissions during operation.
DWater is the only chemical by-product produced during vehicle operation.They quickly run out of charge and must be plugged into the mains for hours to recharge.
