UK hydrogen roadshow visits National Express West Midlands

The first-ever double decker hydrogen bus tour of the UK stopped off to see the strides being made to decarbonise public transport in Birmingham.
The UK Hydrogen Roadshow, a partnership between bus manufacturer Wrightbus, hydrogen distribution firm Ryze Hydrogen, and hydrogen production company INEOS through its INOVYN subsidiary, set off from London on Monday 18th October 2021 on a 600-mile journey to Glasgow ahead of the UN’s climate conference, COP26.
The roadshow - taking place on the world’s first hydrogen double decker bus, the Wrightbus Hydroliner - is stopping at various businesses along the way to highlight the potential that low-carbon hydrogen fuel has to play in various industries.
The iconic roadshow bus was greeted on Tuesday (19th October) by “Sylvia” the bus and Sylvia Broadley, Specialist Energy Manager from Birmingham City Council. “Sylvia” is the first of Birmingham City Council’s 20 hydrogen buses, which we will operate in service later this year.
