Ford unveils a new internal combustion engine that runs on hydrogen
Ford Motor Company is now offering a new engine that runs on hydrogen to the industrial market. These internal combustion, V-10 engines produce almost no emissions and will be outfitted on Ford's new E-450 shuttle busses.

Original news summary: (http://www.fuelcellsworks.com/Supppage2150.html)
- Ford Power Products (FPP), a division of Ford Powertrain Operations, is introducing hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engines (H2ICEs) to the industrial marketplace.
- This move parallels Ford Motor Company's introduction of its first commercial hydrogen-powered shuttle bus.
- The E-450 shuttle bus is equipped with a 26-gallon equivalent, 5,000 pounds-per-square-inch hydrogen fuel tank with an expected range of about 150 miles.
- With near-zero emissions, the E-450 shuttle bus will meet the most stringent applicable emissions standards.
- An initial pilot lease program has been established to place pre-production E-450 shuttle buses in target markets.
- Ford believes its advanced hydrogen engine technologies will make hydrogen power more practical and support the development of a supporting infrastructure.
- The company is devoting resources to develop and demonstrate hydrogen vehicle technologies, including hydrogen internal combustion engines.
- They are one of the solutions to cleaner air and environment.
- We have the capability to delve into the marketplace," states Jack Damron, executive director of Ford Power Products.
- Ford is the only automaker actively involved in all four alternative fuel technologies -- gasoline-electric hybrids, clean diesels, hydrogen-powered internal combustion engines and fuel cells.
- Ford Power Products is responsible for the sales and marketing of Ford's hydrogen engines.
- Target industrial applications for prototype hydrogen engines include airline ground support equipment (GSE) and power generation (gen-sets).
- The 4.2-liter V-6 hydrogen engine is prototyped in airline ground support equipment.
- Hydrogen internal combustion engines deliver up to a 99.7 percent reduction in CO2, making them an ideal power solution within the airport environment where emission levels are strictly regulated.
- The turbocharged Ford 6.8-liter V-10 hydrogen engine is a natural fit in power generation applications, due to its minimal vibration and wear on engine and gen-set components.
- Calibration testing is currently in progress on both hydrogen engines.
