A radical transformation is required in the world's energy systems to mitigate climate change and meet Canada's greenhouse gas emission reduction targets. The Canadian transport sector was identified as the second largest source of GHG emissions, accounting for 25% of the nations total emissions. It is imperative to focus research towards enabling the transition of the transportation sector towards a hydrogen-based system. SurePoint Technologies is collaborating with the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology's (SAIT) Centre for Energy Research and Clean Unconventional Technologies (CERCUTS) research group to develop a proprietary prototype to test hydrogen and natural gas fuel blends at varying ratios to optimize performance and reduce tailpipe emissions. The proposed research will hybridize the existing design of the internal combustion engine (ICE) in vehicles to accommodate a mixture of hydrogen and natural gas. The modification of existing ICEs will allow for an easier implementation of technology in existing vehicles without requiring a substantial investment in engine overhaul, while still achieving a notable reduction in tailpipe emissions. The developed technology will spur investments and strategic partnerships across the country and beyond Canada's borders in the mission to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. Building a strong hydrogen economy will lead to financial, environmental and health benefits for all Canadians.

为了减缓气候变化和实现加拿大的温室气体减排目标，世界能源系统需要进行根本性的变革。加拿大运输部门被确定为第二大温室气体排放源，占该国总排放量的25%。必须把研究的重点放在使运输部门能够向氢气系统过渡。SurePoint Technologies正在与南艾伯塔省理工学院(SAIT)能源研究和清洁非常规技术(CERCUTS)研究小组合作，开发一种专有原型，以测试不同比例的氢和天然气燃料混合物，以优化性能和减少尾气排放。这项拟议的研究将混合现有的车辆内燃机(ICE)设计，以适应氢和天然气的混合物。对现有内燃机的改装将使现有车辆更容易实施技术，而不需要对发动机大修进行大量投资，同时仍能显著减少尾气排放。开发的技术将刺激全国各地和加拿大境外的投资和战略合作伙伴关系，实现到2050年实现净零排放的目标。建设强大的氢气经济将为所有加拿大人带来金融、环境和健康方面的好处。
