The effects of high levels of GHG emissions from the transport sector on health and quality of life are now widely recognised. Decarbonisation of road transport has therefore become a major topic for cities and regions, which are developing and implementing ambitious emission reduction policies. Garbage trucks are directly procured by local authorities or waste management authorities; the public sector can therefore have a direct influence on the purchase of these vehicles and the decarbonisation of garbage trucks fleets. Fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), using hydrogen as a fuel, are one of the solutions which enable a complete decarbonisation of the transport system well to wheel. However, they remain a costly option and only a few zero emission garbage trucks have been deployed and developed in Europe. This project will deploy 7 fuel cell garbage trucks in 7 different cities in 5 countries in NWE, covering a wide range of contexts. The project will aim to demonstrate that fuel cell garbage trucks provide an effective solution to reduce emissions from road transport in NWE. The project will invest in the deployment, operation and monitoring of the garbage trucks. The project will run the vehicles in normal operation conditions. The deployment sites will use green hydrogen when possible, thus ensuring that the vehicles will be zero emission from well to wheel. The partners will also work closely together to develop joint tendering specifications. This project will enable a smooth introduction of a zero-emission technology in conventional fuels fleets. It will therefore lay the grounds for upscaling and further deployment of fuel cell garbage trucks in these fleets in the near future. Each deployment site will aim to continue the operation of the trucks after the end of the project and to gradually replace conventional fuel trucks by fuel cell trucks. (English)
