Fuels are a powerful tool to improve air quality in densely populated areas. Road transport in Europe today represents more than a quarter of all greenhouse-gas emissions, and 54% of particulate emissions. Choosing hydrogen as a fuel means mobilising for clean, environment-friendly transport.

Fuels are a powerful tool to improve air quality in densely populated areas. Road transport in Europe today represents more than a quarter of all greenhouse-gas emissions, and 54% of particulate emissions. Natural vehicle gas comes in a compressed or liquefied form. It can be organic, and can even be produced from local waste! Depending on the form that is chosen, natural vehicle gas can be used for heavy- or medium-duty vehicles, and for short, medium or long distances. Many municipalities make this choice to significantly reduce the production of particulate matter in towns.

Fuels are a powerful tool to improve air quality in densely populated areas. Road transport in Europe today represents more than a quarter of all greenhouse-gas emissions, and 54% of particulate emissions. The advantage of electricity is that it emits very little polluting matter and therefore significantly reduces air pollution. It is also an important lever to reduce sound pollution, as the vehicles that use it - both light and heavy - are very silent.
