Sustainable Mobility & Hydrogen Fuel Cell Technologies

Expertise

Ram Gokal is an accomplished specialist in sustainable transport systems, with a core focus on zero-emissions mobility, hydrogen fuel cell technologies, and advanced vehicle systems integration. His expertise spans the development, deployment, and scaling of low- and zero-carbon mobility solutions—including battery-electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles—across commercial, public, and heavy-duty sectors.

With over two decades of experience, Ram has worked extensively on the architecture and integration of hydrogen fuel cell powertrains, covering everything from PEM stack performance and power electronics to thermal management and high-pressure hydrogen storage. He is especially experienced in applying these systems to use cases where battery-electric alone is insufficient—such as in long-haul trucking, mass transit, and maritime transport—delivering operational range and rapid refuelling advantages.

Ram's broader mobility expertise includes:

• Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) and new business models for decarbonised fleets

• Hydrogen infrastructure strategy, aligning vehicle needs with refuelling network evolution

• Lifecycle and systems engineering, ensuring safety, performance, and sustainability at scale

• Cross-sector applications, including aviation, marine, and rail electrification initiatives

He also plays a strategic role in shaping the hydrogen mobility ecosystem through collaboration with OEMs, infrastructure developers, and policy stakeholders, promoting real-world adoption of hydrogen technologies aligned with net-zero targets.

Ram’s expertise makes him a valuable contributor to innovation challenges, partnerships, and initiatives seeking to advance clean transport technologies, reduce lifecycle emissions, and build the next generation of sustainable mobility infrastructure.
