hydrogen fuel cells and large public transportation vehicles

Municipal government

A hybrid propulsion system combining diesel and hydrogen fuel mentioned as one of two hydrogen pilot initiatives being tested by Edmonton for city vehicles.

Buses that use hydrogen fuel cells to generate electricity, which then powers the vehicle.

Electric buses run on rechargeable batteries and are ideal for shorter urban routes with regular stops for recharging.

Alberta

A joint pilot program between Edmonton and Strathcona County to test-drive hydrogen buses, uncovering and addressing technological challenges including refueling service outages and temperature-related valve leaks.

A second hydrogen pilot initiative experimenting with dual diesel and hydrogen fuel for city vehicles, representing an alternative approach to hydrogen adoption.

A hydrogen fueling station project designed to service both city buses and private vehicles, anticipated as a significant economic advantage and catalyst for investment in Alberta's hydrogen industry.
