HWR Hydrogen – Dual-fuel trucks

2024

HW Richardson Group's hydrogen unit is pioneering dual-fuel trucks in New Zealand, combining hydrogen and diesel to cut carbon vehicle emissions by up to 34%. The initiative lowers emissions at a fraction of the cost of alternative low carbon vehicles and preserves the value of the existing diesel fleet. The first five dual-fuel trucks in Australasia have been converted and certified and with fast refuelling, elimination of stranded asset, and minimal payload impact, this transitionary technology will help bridge the gap until 100% hydrogen heavy vehicles become widely available.
