A system that combines a traditional engine with an electric motor and battery to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions in medium and heavy-duty work trucks.

Exploration drilling for natural hydrogen adapts conventional oil and gas drilling techniques to target hydrogen‑bearing formations in the subsurface.[2][9] It uses rotary drilling rigs, drilling muds, and well logging tools to access and characterize geological layers where hydrogen might accumulate.[2][12] Because hydrogen is a small, reactive molecule, measurement equipment and safety protocols must account for leak detection, flammability, and potential mixing with other gases such as nitrogen or methane.[2][11]

Geologic or natural hydrogen refers to molecular hydrogen that is generated and stored in the Earth’s crust through natural geological processes, rather than being manufactured in industrial plants.[2][9] It may accumulate in reservoirs similarly to oil and gas, allowing extraction through wells if suitable traps, seals, and migration pathways exist.[2][9] Interest in this resource has grown after discoveries of hydrogen‑rich seeps and wells in places like Mali, France, and Eastern Europe, suggesting that exploitable accumulations may be more common than previously assumed.[2][9]

The world's first passenger train equipped with a hydrogen fuel cell system, designed to be environmentally friendly and reduce emissions.

The first hydrogen refueling station in Quebec, being developed through a cooperation between Hydrogenics and Harnois Energies. The station will produce approximately 200 kilograms of hydrogen per day.

An early‑stage exploration drilling project by Vema Hydrogen to test for the presence and characteristics of naturally occurring hydrogen in the subsurface of Quebec.

The world's first hydrogen-powered passenger train, whose components are certified by TÜV SÜD's programs to meet rail safety norms and hydrogen system risks.

A model vehicle for which Honda developed fuel cell components. The model has been discontinued.

A pioneering fuel cell vehicle (FCV) from Toyota, mentioned as part of Japan's leadership in hydrogen transport.
