Do the internal combustion engines, converted to use hydrogen, run like regular combustion engines?
Driving one of the hydrogen powered trucks in this fleet would be indistinguishable from driving a truck fueled with gasoline. If the driver were to look under the hood, however, he or she would notice some interesting engineering differences. The fuel injection system and the electronic control system – or “brains” of the fuel system – are uniquely designed to handle the low energy density characterics of hydrogen gas. No catalytic converter or emission controls are necessary due to the inherently clean burning nature of hydrogen.
