The Environment & Ecology Bureau (EEB) in Hong Kong has taken a significant step towards promoting sustainable transportation by granting approval to eight trial projects on hydrogen fuel technology for electric vehicles. These projects aim to explore the potential of hydrogen as a clean energy source for powering electric vehicles and reducing carbon emissions. The approved projects include initiatives by companies like Hong Kong & China Gas Company, Wilson Logistics, Kam Wai Tourist Bus, and others. These projects involve testing hydrogen fuel cell vehicles for both local and cross-boundary transport services. For example, one project will involve deploying hydrogen fuel cell goods vehicles for cross-boundary transport, while another project will test hydrogen fuel cell coaches for local passenger services. Apart from testing hydrogen-powered vehicles, the approved projects also include initiatives to extract hydrogen from town gas networks. For instance, one project will use hydrogen power generation equipment to charge electric vehicles at a commercial building in North Point. Another project will extract hydrogen from the town gas network at a construction site in Shau Kei Wan to generate electricity for charging electric vehicles and powering the site office. Overall, the initiative aims to drive innovation in sustainable transportation and promote the use of hydrogen as an environmentally friendly energy source. By supporting these hydrogen energy trial projects, Hong Kong is taking a step towards reducing carbon emissions and fostering a cleaner and more sustainable future for transportation within the city.
