Hydrogen bus project

Project description

This is an R&D project for the technological development of intercity and interurban hydrogen-powered buses, and the subsequent on-the-road commissioning of a fleet of these buses in 2022/23, with a holistic approach to the value chain and 100% in-house technology.

The main objectives of the project are to mitigate climate change through the development of new and clean technologies and sustainable mobility/transportation, economic growth and job creation in the region, and the creation of new businesses.

The project is a partnership between the CAF Group and the MUBIL Foundation, set up at the initiative of the Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa.

Impacto medioambiental

This project contributes to the reduction of CO2 in the environment. In terms of its contribution to the circular economy,, the initiatives and partnerships to be taken and formed for end-of-life equipment management will be defined at the project stage. This will mainly be focused on giving a second life to the batteries on board, since they will be replaced when they reach 80% of their initial storage capacity.
