Construction machinery manufacturer JCB has unveiled a mobile refueller capable of refuelling its hydrogen-powered machines.
JCB has invested £100m in hydrogen engines and has already showcased working prototypes of a backhoe loader and a Loadall telescopic handler powered by the technology.
A team of 100 engineers is working on the project. The hydrogen-powered backhoe loader was unveiled first, followed by the Loadall. The company went on to showcase the technology in the Green Zone at COP26 in Glasgow. JCB has manufactured engines since 2004, producing them at plants in Derbyshire and in Delhi, India.
