Hydrogen power generators are providing electricity to a clothing recycling plant in Northamptonshire, UK, that has been plagued by grid connection delays.

By using FCEVs in combination with BEVs, IPA argues that policymakers could “greatly reduce the risk” of decarbonisation goals being derailed by metal shortages.
