The results of the first year are very positive. By using hydrogen as an energy source 109,37 kg CO2 less was discharged during each operational day. This represents a CO2 saving of 4.83 tons per year. These results were achieved while using the truck just one day a week. The expected savings using the truck on a daily bases are obvious. The facilities for vehicles on hydrogen are expanding. Meanwhile there are four hydrogen refueling stations in the Netherlands, including one on the AutomotiveCampusNL in Helmond. This latter is owned by WaterstofNet, an organization that develops projects and roadmaps around sustainable hydrogen for zero-emission transport and energy storage. WaterstofNet focuses mainly on the region Flanders – South Netherlands.
