Project Objectives
The objective of this Project is to reduce emissions from heavy duty vehicles by developing a hydrogen and diesel dual fuel retrofit system applicable to 90% of heavy-duty engines.
Expected Results
This project aims to:
- Support development and training of Alberta engineers in the field of energy transition and GHG reductions.
- Potentially develop and produce an exportable product.
- Reduce GHG and black carbon emissions from the heavy-duty trucking industry.
- Increase demand for hydrogen fuel, increasing opportunities for Alberta energy providers to produce and sell hydrogen.
- Retrofit HD trucks to use hydrogen dual-fuel technology
- Decrease capital cost and retrofit lead time for heavy-duty truck fleets over buying new trucks.
