Abu Dhabi has announced the pilot operation of the first hydrogen-powered taxi as it works towards achieving an ideal sustainable urban transport.
The trial will collect data on a number of factors, including kilometres travelled, amount of hydrogen used, operating hours, and the mechanism for clean refuelling operations.
