The department’s up to £200 million zero-emission HGV and infrastructure demonstrator has the terrible acronym ZEHID, which I will not use again. The programme is funding hundreds of zero-emission HGVs in both battery electric and hydrogen fuel cell technologies, alongside their charging and refuelling infrastructure. The programme will collect and make available data on which zero-emission HGV technology is better suited to HGV use cases, providing confidence to the sector in enabling informed commercial investment decisions. As part of the programme, there are 73 planned infrastructure locations at a mix of depot and motorway service area sites to support development of nationwide infrastructure deployment.
