This government funded project will deliver an all-new autonomous zero-emission HGV tractor unit for the UK market, enabling significant efficiency and operational cost savings for logistics operators. This deployment will demonstrate this service for leading retailer to elevate public perception and develop new business models.
A transport revolution is happening in the UK through two major transformations: zero-emissions vehicles and autonomous driving, which are set to disrupt the long-distance haulage sector.
The Hub2Hub consortium is playing a significant role in supporting both goals with HVS’ ground-breaking emission-free hydrogen-electric HGV, to deliver an all-new autonomous zero-emission HGV tractor unit for the UK market.
HVS’ innovative HGV will decarbonise one of the biggest polluting sectors on our roads, working in partnership with Fusion Processing Ltd to expediate the development of Hub to Hub autonomous driving technology with Fusion’s automated drive systems, delivering never-seen-before levels of efficiency and operational cost savings for logistics operators, as well as providing new employment opportunities.
The deployment trial of the autonomous HGV, planned for September 2024, will demonstrate this service for a leading retailer to elevate public perception, showcasing the potential autonomy can deliver thanks to increased safety and fuel savings, and develop new business models.
