The five Hyundai Nexo FCEVs will be trialled for three years as part of the government Qfleet, which has had an electric vehicle transition plan in place since 2018.The first inklings that this might include FCEVs came in August 2019 in tandem with an announcement by the state that it would pursue “green hydrigen under an initial $19 million plan.
“This trial will accelerate our journey towards establishing Queensland as a renewable energy superpower,” Queensland minister for energy, renewable and hydrogen and publis works Mick de Brenni said in a statement on Thursday - Link
