Joanna Yarrow is one of the UK’s leading experts in sustainable living. Having grown up in a Sussex wood she knows all about the traditional ‘Good Life’, but doesn’t want to go back to peeing on the compost heap.
The unique Oaktec developed Honda Civic Hybrid CVT rally car is to make its first journey to the South Coast when it takes on the 2010 Brighton to London Eco-Rally. The car which is more used to hammering through remote Scottish rally special stages will take on the more gentle task of this demonstration ride into the Capital, driven by Lisa Rogers.
This will be the first public demonstration of EVO Electric’s DuoDrive hybrid system, an original powertrain solution that gives improved driving performance and fuel economy for a range of commercial vehicle applications including taxis and delivery vans. The technology will help London and other cities meet their carbon reduction goals, while also providing commercial vehicle manufacturers and operators with a cost-effective means of meeting upcoming emission regulations.
ITM Power's specially adapted Ford Focus is an example of how conventioanl engines can be fuelled on 'Green Hydrogen'. This can be produced anywhere using only water and renewable electricity using ITM’s world-beating electrolyser technology. For this year's Eco-Rally, guest drivers include a BBC Click journalist and Quentin Willson.
MINI has always represented engineering innovation and design ingenuity at it best. The MINI E continues that tradition - striking design combined with high performance and a state-of-the-art electric drivetrain.
ITM's electrolyser and fuel cell technologies have the potential to become the cornerstones of a future hydrogen economy based on 'green' hydrogen. Their hydrogen systems are able to convert renewable energy to a clean fuel, that can be indefinitely stored for use in transport, residential and industrial applications.
