Oxfordshire County Council, GB and ULEMCo develop hydrogen fuel cells for emergency vehicles
Oxfordshire County Council, GB ULEMCo Hydrogen Vehicles
The county's Fire and Rescue Service worked with ULEMCo on an eight-month evaluation of fire engine needs. This study determined how much energy was required for four hours of water pumping and typical travel distances to calls. ULEMCo will create a prototype drivetrain with hydrogen fuel cells for real-world tests across the county. A £3.9 million national grant supports the HYER Power initiative's development of zero-emissions technology for fire engines, ambulances, and street sweepers.
