Rare Earth Elements (REEs) are essential for the Rare Earth Permanent Magnets (REPMs), which are required for e-motors and additional components. REE supply is volatile and can disrupt commercial ecosystems. The UK has limited natural REE resources but does boast successful industries reliant on REEs. The only realistic route for an insulated, sustainable...

**CoacH2 -- Next generation hydrogen fuel-cell coach powertrain demonstrator** **Delivered by a Northern Irish consortium spanning OEM, operator and academia this project will accelerate the development of zero-emission fuel-cell electric coaches, with a full on-vehicle technology demonstrator to be manufactured and showcased as part of CENEX LCV 2024\.**...

Delivered by a **consortium spanning OEM, supply chain, operator and academia**, the Developing Next-Generation Common-Platform Fuel-Cell and Battery-Electric Multi-Axle Buses, or **"NextGenZEB" project aims to develop a new world leading, commercially competitive solution for zero-emission tri-axle and articulated bus vehicle configurations**. The projec...

The Teesside Hydrogen Vehicle Ecosystem seeks to solve a problem that has constrained the development of the hydrogen mobility sector -- the inability to scale hydrogen supply infrastructure to achieve sufficient economies of scale to make the production and supply of hydrogen and vehicle support infrastructure affordable. The project's solution to this p...

NextGen Fuel-Cell Electric Buses to Accelerate a Low-Carbon Hydrogen Economy or "NextGenFCEV" aims to develop world leading, in terms of TCO and efficiency, single and double deck fuel cell electric buses for the UK marketplace and export. This project addresses the aim of the competition in accelerating the development of a zero-tailpipe emission fuel-ce...

"NextGenEV will develop an electric powertrain architecture for energy efficient buses. Wrightbus has successfully developed three generations of ""micro-hybrid"" architecture and a low cost high efficiency Hybrid bus with the""NextGenHyBus"" project. These systems are designed to maximise energy efficiency to power ancillary systems and vehicle propulsio...

NexGenHyBus will develop a mild hybrid architecture for fuel efficient buses. Wrightbus has successfully developed three generations of "micro-hybrid" architecture. These systems recuperate braking energy and use it to power ancillary systems rather than vehicle propulsion. NexGenHyBus will build on previous micro hybrid architectures. Retaining those sys...
