The reason behind developing a fuel cell hybrid electric vehicle is to achieve the most suitable usage of both energy sources without compromising on the driving performance. This can be achieved by developing an appropriate energy management system for optimally splitting the power among the battery and fuel cell. However, the performance of such a system is strongly dependent on the road and traffic scenarios which are often characterized by driving cycles. In this contribution, four driving cycles are compared to evaluate the energy and fuel consumption of the battery and fuel cell respectively. The power demand and power supplied are analyzed to evaluate the efficiency of the energy management system. It is observed that with Artemis driving cycle, battery energy consumption is least whereas the minimum fuel consumption is achieved with UDDS driving cycle. The WLTP cycle has higher energy as well as fuel consumption compared to the other three cycles while UDDS has the least. It is also observed that the energy management system has the ability of always maintaining the power demand and supply balance.
