Milestone hit with hydrogen fuelled vans

ULEMCo has reached an important milestone for use of hydrogen fuel in its fleet of test vehicles. Sixteen standard Ford Transits, adapted to run on dual hydrogen/diesel, have clocked up over 20,000 miles (over 32,000km) using hydrogen fuel. The vehicles achieved ultra-low emissions of 59g CO2 per kilometre, compared with 234g/km for the standard vehicles, equivalent to a saving of almost 6t of CO2 emissions for the UK to date. The figures are bas...

Low-emission hydrogen-fuelled vehicles are realised

Diesel-to-hydrofuel converted vehicles have been verified as achieving the definitions of ultra-low status by the Vehicle Certification Agency (VCA). Ford Transit vans retrofitted with ULEMCo’s hydrogen gas system achieved 59g/km CO2 under test, representing a 70% reduction on the unconverted equivalent vehicle. Tailpipe emissions also showed a 40% reduction in harmful NOx.
