A hydrogen-powered bus capable of travelling more than 1,000 kilometres on a single tank has been quietly transporting passengers in Madrid, Spain, since June as part of a real-world trial aimed at accelerating zero-emission public transport.
According to a Bosch release, the bus, built by Spanish manufacturer Irizar and operated by Alsa, is equipped with Bosch's latest fuel-cell power module (FCPM). The pilot project is designed to demonstrate the viability of hydrogen fuel-cell technology for long-distance and high-frequency bus services.
