Aberdeen City Council, in collaboration with the NewBusFuel, HyTransit and High V.LO-City projects, hosted the Aberdeen Hydrogen Summit from the 15th to the 17th of March 2017.

Aberdeen is home to Europe’s largest hydrogen fuel cell bus fleet, with 10 buses operating on the City’s roads, supported by the UK’s largest fully integrated renewable hydrogen production and refuelling station. As a leader in hydrogen technology development, Aberdeen hosted a series of events during the 2017 Hydrogen Week to further support and share learning on hydrogen technologies. Local authorities, fleet operators, industry partners and policy makers were invited to discuss the future of hydrogen transport. The NewBusFuel results were presented. NewBusFuel is a study project (financed by the FCH-JU) to resolve the knowledge gap for establishment of large scale hydrogen refuelling infrastructure for fuel cell buses – silent electric buses with long driving range and with zero local emissions - results wdere presnted (more info http://newbusfuel.eu/publications) The HighVLOcity project organizes its mid-term conference with the presentation of current results and panel discussions on the commercialiation and next steps for FCEB's were organized. The 3Emoton project was mentionned in different presentations (f.e. Bart Biebuyck - FCH-JU, Flip Bamelis - Van Hool, David Yorke, Tower Transit London).

Last generation fuel cell bus

Hydrogen Fuel Cell Buses are zero-emission, have equal passenger loads and action ranges, have long driving range, are flexible in their route and use filling stations. That makes them comparable to conventional buses in their use. Moreover, they offer equal comfort to the passengers: equal space, wide doors, panoramic side windows, electric heating and air conditioning). Additionally they are silent and have a smooth ride.

Fuel Cell

A fuel cell is an electrochemical device that generates electricity from hydrogen. This electricity is the main source for the electric motors of the Fuel Cell bus.

Hydrogen

Hydrogen gas is very light and very volatile. It’s colourless, odourless, tasteless and non-toxic. It can be generated out of a wide range of resources. It can be generated out of a wide range of resources. When produced with renewable energy sources like wind or solar energy, its application is emission-free from well to wheel.
