The European transport industry urgently requires bridging decarbonization technologies to meet strict impending mandates. To address this, we have developed a high-performance gas engine, engineered directly onto the commercially proven PACCAR / DAF MX-13 long block, featuring a fully validated pathway toward a zero-emission Bi-Fuel (hydrogen/biogas) architecture.
We have mitigated the core thermodynamic and mechanical risks through our own capital investment. We successfully completed extensive physical test bench runs (achieving 540 HP and 2500 Nm torque) and rigorous teardown analyses on the biogas baseline. We are now raising scale-up capital to execute the official regulatory homologation and fund the 6-month development timeline required to launch our physical hydrogen Bi-Fuel demonstrator engine.
Attached is a brief executive summary detailing our technical validation, the market opportunity, and our growth objectives. Comprehensive project documentation, technical data and teardown reports are available for your review during due diligence.
The Market Problem:
The European trucking industry is facing aggressive, structurally mandated decarbonization trajectories, requiring a 45% reduction in fleet CO2 emissions by 2030 and a 90% reduction by 2040. However, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and logistics fleets are struggling to transition. Battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) and hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) face massive infrastructure bottlenecks, prolonged development cycles, and cannot currently meet the range and payload requirements of long-haul heavy goods transport. Additionally, the power generation industry is almost solely based on diesel generators and urgently needs innovative solutions. These industries urgently require mechanical innovations that allow a phased, immediate shift towards net-zero.
The Solution & Technology Asset:
We have developed a high-performance gas engine engineered directly onto the commercially proven DAF MX-13 long block, featuring a clear development pathway toward a zero-emission Bi-Fuel architecture. This advanced Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) combines the zero-emission compliance of hydrogen with the high performance and range of biogas. Crucially, the transition to hydrogen is significantly de-risked; we have already successfully completed extensive R&D on a smaller-displacement hydrogen engine, providing proven thermodynamic and engineering experience that is now ready to be directly applied to this heavy- duty platform.
ADB is an entrepreneurial pioneer organization creating innovative solutions in support of the de-carbonization of the heavy haulage trucking industry. On the path towards net-zero it is challenging for stakeholders to find capable and feasible solutions to fulfil with the responsibility to decarbonize in due time.
