ULEMCo has been awarded £1.3m ($1.6m) by the UK government to trial vehicles with hydrogen duel-fuel technology. A number of local councils and services will be collaborating with ULEMCo, including OLEV, which plans to convert refuse trucks, road sweepers and delivery vans to dual-fuel hydrogen. The project will demonstrate the emission reduction potential of hydrogen replacing diesel, together with the practical benefits of dual fuel operation.
