ULEMCo, producer of ultra-low emission hydrogen (H2)-fuelled commercial vehicles in the UK, has collaborated with Aberdeen City Council (ACC) to deliver the world’s first H2 dual fuel road sweeper.
The vehicles will use H2 fuel for around a third of the energy used to drive and operate the vehicles, making valuable reductions in carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.
The cleaner sweeper has been adapted by retrofitting a standard EURO 6 DAF truck to run on both diesel and H2 fuel. Emission savings of around 30% are projected from the refitting of ULEMCo technology onto the DAF truck, and the partners believe this makes it best in class for both CO2 and air quality emissions for this type of vehicle.
