Abstract
Using Intelligent Energy s proven World class hydrogen fuel cell technology, this project delivers a new class of extended range zero emission light commercial vehicles freed from the range limitations of battery electric vehicles and not compromised by the harmful emissions of internal combustion engine hybridisation. The addressable market is commercially significant with fleet operators requiring zero emission vehicles to meet legislation and reduce their carbon footprint. The UK based consortium, comprising Intelligent Energy, Frost EV, Millbrook, CENEX, British Gas and DHL, has the knowledge, skills, experience and proven track record to deliver a highly integrated solution for current commercially available vehicles, with plans and infrastructure in place to quickly move from high quality prototype to volume production as early as 2018, enabling both OEM line side and retrofit options to be exploited.Using Intelligent Energy s proven World class hydrogen fuel cell technology, this project delivers a new class of extended range zero emission light commercial vehicles freed from the range limitations of battery electric vehicles and not compromised by the harmful emissions of internal combustion engine hybridisation.
