CHICKEN OR
THE EGG?
The adoption of hydrogen fuel cell technology requires a collaborative approach from organisations willing to decarbonise their operations.
A bit like the chicken or the egg scenario - once can't exist without the other. While we are building New Zealand's hydrogen refuelling infrastructure, we're helping facilitate the development and implementation of clean vehicle technology to utilise the clean freight fuel we're producing.
GOVERNMENT COMMITMENT
Together with the New Zealand Government and OEMs, through policy change and incentives, we are helping provide a sustainable solution to businesses that is achievable for many.
With the New Zealand Government financially invested in our hydrogen refuelling network, we are driven to unlock the endless opportunities in fuel cell technology, especially in New Zealand's heavy transport market.
Through the Climate Emergency Response Fund, the New Zealand Government has provisioned over $130m in grants and packages for hard to abate sectors – including initiatives that provides funding and rebates for clean heavy vehicles to increase the adoption of zero emission trucks, buses and vans.
OUR
DRIVE
Taking one heavy diesel truck off our roads will have the same carbon reduction impact as removing 150 passenger vehicles.
We're driven to implement our green hydrogen refuelling network and facilitate the update of green hydrogen as a clean fuel source.
We work with local and international vendors to accelerate the rollout of fuel cell technology across the globe.
