Hy-Drive Technologies Ltd. (TSX-V: HGS) announced the commercial availability of its G2 hydrogen generating system (HGS). It has begun shipping and installing its first G2 units to selected trucking customers throughout North America. Hy-Drive’s new G2 system is designed to substantially improve fuel efficiency while being environmentally “friendly” by reducing exhaust emissions.
“Now that we have completed our intensive testing protocols in the field, in the lab and in an SAE certified lab we are extremely pleased to announce the launch of our commercial product,” said Tom Brown, President & CEO of Hy- Drive Technologies Ltd. “It has taken a considerable length of time, a team of dedicated professionals and a significant amount of capital to get to the position we are in today. Hy-Drive is able to present an immediate solution to the escalating fuel costs and serious emission concerns, in the commercial trucking industry in North America”, Mr. Brown said.
The Hy-Drive system works by injecting small amounts of hydrogen gas into the combustion chamber of a regular internal combustion engine. This creates an enriched air mixture and a more complete and faster burn of the diesel fuel, which results in reduced emissions, improved fuel efficiency and more engine torque. The product is easy to install and works with any internal combustion engine, all types of fuel and in almost any climate making a versatile solution for any truck fleet.
