Description

Description (DE):

Der schädliche Einfluss von CO2, NOx und Feinstaub aus den Verkehr auf die Gesundheit und die Lebensqualität ist heute allgemein anerkannt. Die Dekarbonisierung des Straßenverkehrs ist damit eines der Hauptanliegen von Städten und Regionen, die an der Erarbeitung und Implementierung von Emissionsminderungsplänen arbeiten. Müllfahrzeuge werden in der Regel von den Städten direkt oder von deren Abfallwirtschaftsbetrieben beschafft. Die öffentliche Hand hat damit direkten Einfluss auf den Kauf dieser Fahrzeuge und damit auf die Dekarbonisierung der Müllfahrzeugflotte. Brennstoffzellenfahrzeuge (FCEV) mit Wasserstoff als Kraftstoff sind eine der Lösungen, um das Transportsystem well-to-wheel vollständig zu dekarbonisieren. FCEV sind derzeit eine kostspielige Option, und bislang wurden nur wenige Nullemissions-Müllfahrzeuge entwickelt und in Europa eingesetzt. In diesem Projekt sollen 7 Brennstoffzellen-Müllfahrzeuge (Bz-Mfz) in 7 verschiedenen Städten aus 5 NWE-Regionen, die einen großen Bereich von Bedingungen abbilden, eingesetzt werden. Das Projekt hat das Ziel zu zeigen, dass Bz-Mfz eine effektive Lösung sind, um Emissionen aus dem Verkehr im NWE Gebiet zu vermindern. Es umfasst die Beschaffung, den Betrieb und das Monitoring der Müllfahrzeuge. Die Fahrzeuge sollen unter üblichen Betriebsbedingungen fahren. An den Standorten soll wo vorhanden grüner Wasserstoff benutzt werden um sicherzustellen, dass die komplette well-to-wheel-Kette emissionsfrei ist. Die Partner arbeiten eng zusammen, um gemeinsame Spezifikationen für die Beschaffung zu entwickeln. Das Projekt wird die sanfte Einführung der Bz-Technik in die Flotten erlauben. Es legt Grundlage für die Beschaffung weiterer Bz-Müllfahrzeuge für diese Flotten in naher Zukunft. Jeder Standort hat die Absicht, die Fahrzeuge über das Projektende hinaus zu betreiben und konventionelle Fahrzeuge schrittweise durch FCEV zu ersetzen.

Description (FR):

Les effets nocifs des émissions élevées de CO2, NOx et PM attribuables au secteur des transports sur la santé et la qualité de vie sont désormais largement reconnus. La décarbonisation du transport routier est devenue un enjeu majeur pour les villes et régions, qui développent d’ambitieuses politiques de réduction des émissions. Les collectivités territoriales gèrent elles-mêmes l’acquisition de leurs flottes de bennes à ordures ménagères. Elles peuvent donc influer directement sur l 'achat et la décarbonisation de ces véhicules. Les véhicules à pile à combustible, carburant à l 'hydrogène, sont l 'une des solutions permettant une décarbonisation complète du transport du puits à la roue. Or, les véhicules à hydrogène restent une option coûteuse et seules quelques bennes zéro émissions ont été déployées en Europe. Ce projet prévoit le déploiement de 7 bennes à ordures à piles à combustible dans 7 villes de 5 pays de l’Europe du Nord-Ouest (ENO), couvrant ainsi des contextes variés. Le projet visera à démontrer que les bennes à hydrogène constituent une solution efficace pour réduire les émissions provenant du transport routier dans la région de l’ENO. Le projet investira dans le déploiement, l 'opération et le suivi des bennes. Les véhicules fonctionneront dans des conditions d’opération normales. Les sites de déploiement utiliseront de l 'hydrogène vert dans la mesure du possible. Les partenaires du projet collaboreront aussi à l’élaboration de spécifications communes pour la commande des bennes. Ce projet permettra l’introduction progressive la technologie zéro émission dans les flottes conventionnelles. Il posera ainsi les bases d 'un déploiement à plus grande échelle, dans un futur proche, de bennes à hydrogène dans les villes concernées. Tous les sites viseront à poursuivre l 'exploitation des bennes après la fin du projet et à remplacer peu à peu leurs véhicules conventionnels par des véhicules à hydrogène.

Description (EN):

The effects of high levels of GHG emissions from the transport sector on health and quality of life are now widely recognised. Decarbonisation of road transport has therefore become a major topic for cities and regions, which are developing and implementing ambitious emission reduction policies. Garbage trucks are directly procured by local authorities or waste management authorities; the public sector can therefore have a direct influence on the purchase of these vehicles and the decarbonisation of garbage trucks fleets. Fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), using hydrogen as a fuel, are one of the solutions which enable a complete decarbonisation of the transport system well to wheel. However, they remain a costly option and only a few zero emission garbage trucks have been deployed and developed in Europe. This project will deploy 7 fuel cell garbage trucks in 7 different cities in 5 countries in NWE, covering a wide range of contexts. The project will aim to demonstrate that fuel cell garbage trucks provide an effective solution to reduce emissions from road transport in NWE. The project will invest in the deployment, operation and monitoring of the garbage trucks. The project will run the vehicles in normal operation conditions. The deployment sites will use green hydrogen when possible, thus ensuring that the vehicles will be zero emission from well to wheel. The partners will also work closely together to develop joint tendering specifications. This project will enable a smooth introduction of a zero-emission technology in conventional fuels fleets. It will therefore lay the grounds for upscaling and further deployment of fuel cell garbage trucks in these fleets in the near future. Each deployment site will aim to continue the operation of the trucks after the end of the project and to gradually replace conventional fuel trucks by fuel cell trucks.

Expected Outputs (EN): CO2 emissions per year per diesel garbage truck in the NWE area: 25 tonnes (for 1 Euro4 truck, 5 days of operation/week) - 175 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year for 7 trucks. Number of fuel cell garbage trucks currently in operation in NWE: 1.
