The BMW Group presented the first BMW iX5 Hydrogen vehicles in a pilot fleet that will go into service this year. This active driving experience will therefore be the first chance for people not involved in the development process to gain a direct impression of what the BMW iX5 Hydrogen has to offer.

Rolls-Royce has commissioned its first in-house test bench for mtu hydrogen engines at its Augsburg site. The mtu gas engine portfolio is being prepared for hydrogen as a fuel, thus enabling a climate-neutral energy supply. In conjunction with these renewable sources, we see hydrogen as an essential energy carrier of the future.

For biofuels, because biogenic carbon is automatically credited within a product lifecycle, the boundary effectively excludes vehicle end-use CO 2 emissions. Such an approach can indicate policy directions consistent with fostering the conditions that comprehensive analyses imply are necessary for climate protection.
