Hydrogen branded WHD2710 is pictured arriving at Alperton, Sainsburys whilst working on Route 245 this lunchtime
The early hours of this morning saw 3 of Metroline’s Wright Hydrogen Streetdeck FCEVs work Route N7. WHD2717 was one such example seen here standing on John Prince's Street awaiting its departure time before heading back to Northolt. Thanks to the driver too! 😊
WHD2725 entered service today on Route 7 claiming the title of the first hydrogen double decker to work a TFL route. The routes current batch of VWHs are already earmarked for newly acquired Route 328. It’s pictured here on Brunel Road, East Acton about to start its trip back to Oxford Circus

At its Palaestra building in London SE1, Transport for London exhibits the building's hydrogen fuel cell power generators next to the entrance. The £2.4m combined heat and power plant will generate cost savings of £90,000 annually. The six flatscreens run an animation explaining the building's CO2 reducing measures but one wonders if the message wouldn't have been more effective if it was shown on posters instead of burning some of the kWh saved on powering the flatscreens.

Scientists at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory are developing materials and techniques used to fabricate solid oxide fuel cells. The button cell test (aka the bubbling flask in the picture) is used for screening electrode materials for solid oxide fuel cells. The data obtained from button cell tests are used to select electrode materials for full-sized cells.

As a first step towards the development of a fuel cell powered production vehicle, Ford Motor Company has developed the P2000 fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV). This prototype fuel cell powered vehicle achieves full passenger car performance and is truly a zero emission vehicle with the only by-product being pure water. Road and dynamometer driving tests show excellent performance results, which supports the continued interest in the realization of a production fuel cell vehicle. However, a significant amount of R&D remains to be done before fuel cells can achieve the levels of reliability and cost of internal combustion engines (ICE).

Shell. On June 26, 2008, Shell opened California's first retail hydrogen car refueling station in West Los Angeles. In hydrogen vehicles, an electric motor powers the wheels. A chemical reaction inside a unit called a fuel
cell ? usually between hydrogen and oxygen ? creates electricity for the motor. Los Angeles, California, USA

WHD2710 LK70AYZ seen at Sudbury, Harrow Road working on route 245 towards Alperton, Sainsbury's.
Usually one or two of these work on the 245 away from route 7 in Central London but today (2022.02.01) managed to photograph one in decent weather (after the last photo of one in gloomy weather and no branding)
Sometimes it is right place right time to get these things, and what was forecasted cloudy turned sunny and early finish allowed me to get this photographed in this midday spot.
Been wanting to come up with a universal fuel cell for ships for some time. It was always a fun thing as kid when to try to always incorporate the basic one at that time (2x2 round with plate on bottom and tile on top. This feels like a modern variation on that old friend. I need some 1x1 rounds in transclear for 'empty' ones. I do like the T bar on this that will act as a plug in for energy transfer conduits or the like. They are also stackable and lock in top to bottom nicely.

WHD2708 LK70AYX seen at North Pole Road, Wormwood Scrubs working on route 7 towards Oxford Circus.
Over half of these hydrogen's had entered service on the 7 but only 2 tend to come out during a weekday at the moment.
Still however, the whole batch lack of proper fleetcodes both offside and near, as seen with this one as "D2708" - will likely comeback if there is one.
The day also was the debut of the vehicle, as captured working the 2nd eastbound trip. Whilst the spot looks Ok for the single decks on the 70s, tree shadows become a problem at the tops for the double deckers on 7s (as practiced on the VWHs). The WHD had luckily stopped a little further back otherwise a game over if it happened.
WHD2716 LK70AZG pictured at Alperton, Sainbury's as it awaits its trip on route 245 towards Golders Green.
WHD2716 was one of two Hydrogen Streetdecks to make an appearance on the 245, though it was quite expected to happen sometime as the 245 was the route in the case route 7 was lost to another operator, which didn't.
Did see a couple of enthusiasts snapping the buses at both ends of the route (not as many as 12345 though) then I end up doing end to end the 245 onboard WHD2725. Much faster than the roads route 7 traverse in.

Three Toyota Mirai
Parked in designated Fuel Cell parking stalls
The Toyota Mirai (from mirai (未来), Japanese for 'future') is a mid-size hydrogen fuel cell vehicle (FCV) manufactured by Toyota, and is one of the first FCV automobiles to be mass-produced and sold commercially.The Mirai was unveiled at the November 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show. As of December 2021, global sales totaled 17,940 units; the top-selling markets were the U.S. with 9,274 units, Japan with 6,618 and the rest of the world with 2,048.

WHD2725 LK70AZV seen at East Acton, Hammersmith Hospital working on route 7 towards Oxford Circus.
TFL's first hydrogen double deck had made its debut today (2021.05.12) on the route 7, which runs from East Acton to Oxford Circus (people who remember the route a few years back going to Russell Square until the cut happened)
This route does stop outside my workplace somewhere but Wednesday is my day off so had to make a quick trip to East Acton area to photograph the vehicle.
Progressively these Wright Hydrogen Streetdecks will replace the existing VWHs on the 7 which those will cascade to Cricklewood to replace the loaned Tower Transit VHs on the 328.

The Toyota Mirai, introduced in 2017, was the first hydrogen fuel-cell car sold commercially. As the number of hydrogen fuel stations is rising Toyota started the second generation of the model in 2021. Until now only Hyundai and Toyota are selling hydrogen cars, both in relatively small numbers. There are just 230 Mirais on the road in the Netherlands.

WHD2708 LK70AYX seen at Oxford Circus about to work on route N7 towards Northolt.
Hydrogen Streetdecks had beginning to appear on the night element of route 7, the N7. It's also the first night route to ever receive hydrogen buses but in the meantime, it's currently a mix of the existing VWHs which are slowly heading to Cricklewood to oust the loaned Tower Transit VHs on the 328.
The LED displays on these turned to be quite a no go as it looked fuzzy, but after some attempts, this was the good one to upload.
