The hydrogen market in the world today is capable ovule and em-pirical evidence on activity of patents in fuel cells and hydrogen production islimited so far. Patent applications in zero-emission mobility in the aspect of fuelcells include: DAFC/DMFC&DMFC, PEMFC, SOFC, AFC, PAFC. As for thepatents relating to the hydrogen production, they concern low carbon, electrol-ysis and inorganic. The purpose of the study was to investigate certain aspectsof the activity of patents in fuel cells and hydrogen production in the context ofpassenger car fleet in the Visegrad group (V4) countries and to explore the rela-tionship between patent registrations and GDP per capita in V4. The researcharea relates to the answer to the question of whether a country’s involvementin zero-emission patent activity (patents in fuel cells and hydrogen production)could contribute to the renewal of the country’s passenger car fleet. The theseswere formulated as follows: 1) activity of patents in fuel cells and hydrogen pro-duction in the V4 countries doesn’t depend on the car fleet in these countries,2) the level of GDP per capita in the V4 countries is not followed by the numberof patents registrations in hydrogen technology, 3) the highest patent activityin fuel cells and hydrogen production doesn’t mean that the car fleet in thesecountry will be zero-emission in coming years. The method used in this article isa comparative analysis, but also the relationships between patent registrations,GDP per capita and passenger car fleet in V4 are considered
