Enoc, RTA collaborate on green hydrogen mobility solutions

Enoc Group has signed a trial agreement with Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) to explore the feasibility of green hydrogen-powered mobility solutions in Dubai to drive the Dubai Green Mobility Strategy 2030 and support the development of the UAE's green hydrogen economy,
 
Under this deal, Enoc Group will supply green hydrogen fuel to RTA's hydrogen-powered city buses. Enoc will also provide technical support and data on green hydrogen refuelling to assist RTA in conducting a comprehensive feasibility study.
 
Both parties are committed to upholding the highest safety and operational standards throughout the project.
 
The agreement was signed at Enoc Group Headquarters by Burhan Al Hashemi, Managing Director of Enoc Commercial and International Sales, and Ahmed Hashem Bahrozyan, the CEO of Public Transport Agency at RTA, in the presence of Enoc Group CEO Saif Humaid Al Falasi.
 
Al Falasi said: "Green hydrogen represents a compelling alternative to traditional energy sources, and as the UAE is focused on developing a hydrogen economy, we are proud to be at the forefront of its adoption in the UAE."
 
Bahrozyan said the agreement was an important step towards expanding co-operation between RTA and Enoc Group in using green hydrogen to operate RTA's transportation means, including public buses and marine transport, to make them more sustainable and environmentally friendly.
 
According to Enoc, the green hydrogen, produced by the electrolysis of water using renewable electricity such as solar and wind, emits zero carbon dioxide (CO2) during production. 
 
In addition to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and diversifying energy sources, green hydrogen increases the driving range of vehicles, it added.-TradeArabia News Service
