Hyundai Motor Company, in collaboration with the Saudi Transport General Authority, Saudi Public Transport Company (SAPTCO/SAT), Almajdouie Motors Company, Air Products Qudra, Abdullah Hashim Gases, and ARAMCO, has completed an ambitious project to assess hydrogen-based mobility in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
The collaboration included a two-month trial of the Hyundai Universe Fuel Cell Coach Bus in Saudi Arabia’s eastern province. The project’s goal was to assess the feasibility and performance of hydrogen-powered transportation, which was an important step forward in the Kingdom’s transition to sustainable transport.
Hyundai Motor used its well-known knowledge of hydrogen technology to supply its hydrogen fuel cell bus. The facilities for fueling was supplied by ARAMCO and Air Products Qudra, while Abdullah Hashim Gases oversaw the hydrogen availability. Almajdouie Motors provided technical and service support during the project, while SAPTCO managed the trial operations, including driver resources and deployment.
