Westport H2 HPDI Fuel System

1 mention

A hydrogen fuel system technology that uses High-Pressure Direct Injection with a small amount of pilot diesel fuel to enable compression ignition before hydrogen injection. Achieves 94-98% CO2 emission reductions, 20-30% more power and torque than diesel engines, and up to 10% improved thermal efficiency.
