Sažetak
Due to the fact that transport is not just one of the highest energy consumer but polluter as well, a large effort has been put on transition to the cleaner mobility in order to reduce harmful emissions. This transition has already begun and currently there are a large number of battery electric vehicles on the roads, but thanks to the competitive development of hydrogen technology, i.e. fuel cell powered vehicles, the situation is significantly changing. Hydrogen is considered as an effective alternative fuel since it can be produced (via water electrolysis using renewable energy sources) and used (in fuel cells) with zero harmful emissions. In addition to the introduction of hydrogen as an alternative fuel a vital issue is the implementation of legislations, both on infrastructure and safety. This work presents a synthesis of regulations and directives that have been adopted so far, as well as future strategies. The aim is to provide the access to the existing methodologies of hydrogen vehicle adoption. In this context, the results of this work provide an overview of countries worldwide as examples of good practice that have already begun with their implementation, with critical review on Croatian current position on this issue.
