Mass Transit
For many communities, mass transit emissions represent a significant portion of their overall carbon output. For this reason, their municipalities are motivated to convert pollution-producing buses over to more efficient combustion systems like hydrogen. There are numerous examples of local governments in the US and Europe who are testing hydrogen-powered transit in their communities, with hopes of eventually converting their entire system to the more efficient fuel source. Verdicel solutions will enable transition from fossil fuels to clean energy.
Heavy Duty Trucking
Hydrogen fuel cells provide a solution to every setback accrued with the long-haul trucking industry. They are not only lighter than other fuel cells, but they produce enough onboard energy to remove the need for a battery, and they emit zero-emission water vapor as opposed to carbon. In addition, hydrogen carries far more energy than diesel and petrol, with trials showing it to be 3x more efficient.
The largest benefit, however, comes with the fact that hydrogen would be far more inexpensive than current fuel sources. With the ability to be made on-site, hydrogen won’t have to be imported or priced based on availability. Renewability means that it will remain consistently monetized and accessible for all trucks.
Material Handling Equipment (MHE)
Material handling equipment around the world are being transitioned to hydrogen in major ports and warehouses of some of the largest companies in the world including Amazon and Walmart just to name a few. Reasons including faster recharging times then current battery technology. The port of Long Beach and Los Angeles is mandated to transition by 2035.
Maritime
All across our oceans, seafaring vessels expel alarming amounts of carbon emissions and consume billions of gallons of fossil fuels every year. Cargo ships are seen by many as a leading cause of carbon emissions in our environment, and for the waste pollution that finds its way into our waters. Because of this, governments and maritime industry leaders alike are determined to transition to cleaner energy. Several maritime companies have already begun switching over to hydrogen power, the best solution for efficient and emission-free energy. Verdicel’s solutions are leading the way in this switch to clean energy.
