Cleaner & Greener Possibilities. By moving towards a zero-emissions Port, we’re protecting our environment and air quality... And at the same time, we’re cultivating a resilient, dynamic economy that invests in a more prosperous and interconnected Oakland. We’ve already reduced diesel emissions by 86% over 2005 levels, and are updating our fleet of vehicles, cranes, and shore-to-ship power systems with renewable electric, fuel cell, and hybrid power sources. It’s proof that, at Everyone’s Port, the cleaner and greener possibilities benefit us all. https://lnkd.in/gehxM3pT

It is important to match the technology to the use case rather than seeking one overall winner. Hydrogen will complement, not compete with, electric fuel systems across road and rail. It may play a part in rail, HGV and bus systems, where cost and access offers advantages over electric.

Encouraging to see announcements like this. So much to do and so much can be done across industry regarding emissions and energy efficiency. Net Zero North West are strong advocates of industrial decarbonisation. Stable and clear policy and prioritisation of energy efficiency first, are just a couple of our manifesto focus areas, in our pursuit of a net zero future for the North West.

European Commission calls for improved long term hydrogen mobility financial support. By JOHN MAX The EU body’s Joint Research Centre is seeking to make fuel cell vehicles more competitive. The European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) is advocating for strategic measures to accelerate the growth of hydrogen mobility. The JRC’s report was in favor of financial support for fuel cell vehicles The JRC’s 110-page report titled “Historical Analysts of Clean Hydrogen JU Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles, Buses and Refuelling Infrastructure Projects”, delves into the historical analysis of clean hydrogen mobility such as H2-fueled vehicles and infrastructure projects. The report argues that long-term subsidies or tax incentives are essential to overcome challenges from the operational cost disparity between hydrogen-powered vehicles, both on roads and buses, and their battery electric counterparts. https://lnkd.in/dD7T3rGs

The White House has released a national zero-emission freight corridor plan to guide medium- and heavy-duty truck charging and hydrogen fueling investments until 2040. Authored by the Joint Office of Transportation and Energy, the plan is meant to serve as a compass for public and private stakeholders to follow as charging and fueling infrastructure is built out along the National Highway Freight Network.

#AlfaLaval E-PowerPack benefits marine vessels by significantly reducing fuel consumption, decreasing reliance on auxiliary engines, simplifying compliance with emissions and efficiency regulations, and providing a competitive advantage through lower emissions and potentially higher speeds. #marineinnovation #marineindustry #sustainability

The spring-like weather in many places reminds us of the power of the sun. 🌞 The power that generates sustainable electricity via PV systems, also on many company roofs ⚡, which we can of course also use to charge our e-cars 🚗. But what is PV-excess charging and what does it take? Watch the video to find out. 👇

In a great demonstration of progress toward decarbonizing public transport, U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) reports that in 2020, more than half (56%) of all U.S. transit buses ran on alternative drivetrain technology (hybrid electric vehicles) or alternative fuels, compared to 1996 levels when 95.4% of transit buses were powered by conventional petroleum diesel. In 2019, commercial truck and bus emissions accounted for 25% of transportation emissions, making it the second-largest source of transportation emissions (CBO 2019). https://lnkd.in/dJ3BmWJJ
