SubjectLocomotive Diesels to Hydrogen as the Combustible Fuel?
Comment
CARB-
Thank  you for the opportunity to provide a comment.
I noticed there was no mention of converting the existing diesel
engines to run on hydrogen as the combustible fuel.  Is that an
option?
DOE HFTO just announced funding (Apr 24 newsletter) for studying
hydrogen combustion, its impact on materials, emissions, etc.
Feb 22 HFTO did an H2ICE webinar where they noted every engine
maker and supporting suppliers have an engine in various stages of
design, companies like Cummins, Toyota, Yamaha & Mazda have H2ICE
engines in production.
An American Class I loco manuf'r has already hired 2 National Labs
to begin the process of converting older diesels to H2ICE.

H2ICE can be made zero emission.
H2ICE can run on a dirty H2 gas mix, so H2 sales won't be reduced
as H2 quality stabilizes as the infrastructure grows.

I'm happy to help CARB with H2ICE in any way possible.

Thank you for this opportunity.

Sincerely,
