This project will demonstrate the feasibility that hydrogen and low carbon gas can be used to dual fuel freight locomotives. This approach will generate sufficient power to meet operational requirements and provide a first stage deployment of low carbon energy from which a transitional road map, to deploy hydrogen fuelled locomotives in future, using low carbon multi-fuel as a transition technology. It is proposed that this will deliver a demonstration of a Class 66 running on hydrogen, a hydrogen gas blend or biomethane with low emissions across the drive cycle, particularly at idle where rail industry air quality issues currently exist. This project is led by Clean Air Power GT Ltd with support from Freightliner Group Ltd, Network Rail, RSSB, Tarmac, Flogas, University of Birmingham and Carrickarory Consulting Ltd.

该项目将论证氢气和低碳气体用于双燃料货运机车的可行性。这种方法将产生足够的电力来满足运营需求，并提供低碳能源的第一阶段部署，并从中制定过渡路线图，以在未来部署氢燃料机车，使用低碳多种燃料作为过渡技术。据建议，这将提供一个示范的66级运行的氢，氢气混合物或生物甲烷与低排放的整个驱动周期，特别是在闲置的铁路行业的空气质量问题目前存在。该项目由Clean Air Power GT Ltd领导，并得到Freightliner Group Ltd，Network Rail，RSSB，Tarmac，Flogas，伯明翰大学和Carrickarory Consulting Ltd的支持。
