Hydra Energy Real World Study of On-Road CO2 and NOx Emissions Published by SAE International
Hydra Energy has proven that reductions in CO2 emissions are directly related to displacing diesel with hydrogen through study conducted in real world conditions. Hydra’s Powertrain R&D Engineer, Dr. Pooyan Kheirkhah, has been invited to present the corresponding paper at WCX SAE World Congress in Detroit this week. The study, which was completed in the 2020-2022 time period, validates the reduction of both CO2 and NOx emissions in Hydra’s hydrogen-diesel co-combustion retrofit kit for Class 8 vehicles.
Alberta Motor Transport Association (AMTA) launches Canada’s first Hydrogen Commercial Vehicle Demonstrations
We are so glad AMTA member fleets will be able to test out a cost-effective, near-term option with Hydra’s hydrogen-diesel co-combustion retrofit over the next two years. Having already been on the road in Prince George, BC, since 2016, Hydra entered the Edmonton market with our first fleet customer, VEXSL, last summer. We are confident that, through these demonstrations, other fleets in Alberta will see the benefit of transitioning their vehicles to hydrogen as we scale up Hydra’s Hydrogen Corridor along Highway 16.
