In Norway, Asko begins piloting use of hydrogen fuel-cell trucks

Green Car Congress

Norwegian wholesaler Asko is among the first to operate a goods vehicle that runs on hydrogen, thanks to a collaborative effort by research scientists and industry. The on-board charger is 22 kW AC with CCS charging interface, and hydrogen storage is 33 kg @350 bar. The aim here is not to use hydrogen for all goods transport.

CSIRO finds hydrogen could reduce aviation emissions within 5 years

Green Car Congress

A new report from Australia’s national science agency CSIRO shows that clean hydrogen can significantly reduce aviation emissions with potential benefits seen within five years. Hydrogen used for treating crude or bio-crude oil to produce jet fuel with a lower carbon intensity is also considered as an early-stage application.
