Element 1 Project first delivery to site

This week, Reynolds Logistics successfully delivered a Hydrogen MEGC filled with Green Hydrogen from GeoPura’s site in Doncaster to a construction site in Manchester. This significant delivery marks the start of Element One, an innovative project funded by the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero.

Element One aims to accelerate the replacement of diesel on construction sites, demonstrating the potential for green hydrogen in powering construction machinery and providing site energy. The project unites industry leaders from various sectors, including BAM and Skanska (construction), Flannery and Plantforce (plant hire), ULEMCo and GeoPura (hydrogen sector), Reynolds Logistics, and BRE (Research and Technical Organisation).

In the next phase, Reynolds Logistics will operate a mobile hydrogen fuel bowser between two additional construction sites, further validating the concept with more excavators.
