Fossil fuel production and transportation are the two largest sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Canada, accounting for approximately half of Canada's total GHG emissions. Local air pollution from transportation also poses significant environmental and health risks for Canadians, especially for the 80% of the population who live and work in urban areas. Specifically, the trucking industry employs nearly 400,000 Canadians, burns billions of gallons of fuel annually (105.5 M US gallons of diesel per day), and produces tremendous quantities of harmful emissions (42.5 MtCo2e in 2013). There is currently a market of about 464,000 heavy duty class 8 vehicles registered in Canada. With appropriate policy, technology, and investment, Sustainable Development Technology Canada believes that energy consumption and GHG emissions in trucking can be cut in half by 2030. Hydra Energy's waste hydrogen fueled class 8 truck concept represents a viable option to contribute to this objective.

化石燃料生产和运输是加拿大两个最大的温室气体排放源，约占加拿大温室气体排放总量的一半。交通造成的当地空气污染也给加拿大人带来了重大的环境和健康风险，特别是对80%在城市地区生活和工作的人口。具体而言，卡车运输业雇用了近40万加拿大人，每年燃烧数十亿加仑的燃料（每天1.055亿美国加仑的柴油），并产生大量的有害排放物（2013年为4250万吨二氧化碳当量）。目前，在加拿大注册的重型8类车辆约有464，000辆。通过适当的政策、技术和投资，加拿大可持续发展技术公司相信，到2030年，卡车运输的能源消耗和温室气体排放可以减少一半。Hydra Energy的废氢燃料8级卡车概念是实现这一目标的可行选择。
