Explore Plant & Transport Solutions, based in Worksop, Nottinghamshire, has entered into a partnership with UK hydrogen truck manufacturer Hydrogen Vehicle Systems (HVS). The agreement involves integrating 30 hydrogen electric tractor units into Explore's fleet, supported by comprehensive services like maintenance plans, safety training, refuelling infrastructure, and driver training. Founded in 2015, Explore provides transport and plant hire services to various sectors and operates a fleet of 150 trucks and 6,000 plant hire assets across seven depots in the UK. With a firm belief in the potential of hydrogen-electric fuel cell vehicles to revolutionize long-haul trucking, Explore aims to significantly reduce its carbon footprint through this green transition. Chris Gatheridge, Explore's operations director, and John McLeister, HVS chief commercial officer, express strong optimism regarding the partnership. Both companies share a vision of a sustainable future, emphasizing the benefits of zero-emission fuel cell technology in terms of heavier payloads, longer range, and faster refuelling, essential for the logistics industry's decarbonization efforts.
