First hydrogen track day with europe and uk’s largest companies.

First Hydrogen Corp. (TSXV: FHYD) (OTC Pink: FHYDF) (FSE: FIT) (“FIRST HYDROGEN” or the “Company“) announce further to the news release of October 16, 2023, the Company’s track day will be held on October 31 at the HORIBA MIRA, UK, proving ground to test drive First Hydrogen’s hydrogen-fuel-cell powered vehicles (FCEV). Attendees will include some of Europe’s and UK’s largest companies, from parcel delivery, supermarkets, healthcare, leasing, and utilities to mining.

All attendees will have hands-on access to First Hydrogen’s FCEVs and the chance to drive them including technical presentations and a vehicle walkaround to showcase under-the-hood technology.

The attendees will have the opportunity to discuss the practicalities of introducing the FCEVs into their own zero-emission fleets. Fortune Business Insights reported the global electric vehicle market was valued at US384.65 billion in 2022 and is projected to grow from US500.48 billion in 2023 to US1,579.10 billion by 2030.

First Hydrogen’s vehicles have achieved a range of over 630km (400 miles), which is well ahead of the 193km (120 miles) Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP) minimum range requirement of the zero emission vehicle (ZEV) mandate and the range of equivalent battery electric vehicles (BEVs). The vehicles have already undergone road trials with fleet management company Rivus and energy company SSE and are currently undertaking operations with major parcel delivery companies.

Balraj Mann, CEO First Hydrogen, stated:

We are excited to showcase our zero emission FCEVs which have recently attained a range of more than 630km (400 miles) on a single refuelling.

“Our FCEVs are noted for ease of driving and efficient powertrain technology which allows our FCEV the ability to carry large payloads without compromising on the range in any weather conditions.”

“With the UK Government’s recent recognition of hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles within its definition of zero emissions vehicle, sales of the hydrogen fuel cell vehicles will be included in production targets for zero emission vehicles. This will trigger UK investment in hydrogen vehicle sector and more specifically, the Company’s FCEV.”
