T-1B1b-TE-4 - Shift to hydrogen for heavy trucks

Background

IPCC WG3 definition: .

Hydrogen trucks are a type of electric vehicles. They cause no tailpipe emissions, are significantly more energy efficient and produce less noise than fossil-fuelled vehicles. The shift to electric trucks will therefore both reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help create a better urban environment.
