Truck and Track Autumn 2026 www.truckandtrack.com 14 BUSINESS NEWS Scottish transport and logistics company, John G Russell (Transport) Ltd, will become one of the first operators to put hydrogen fuel-cell electric vehicles (FCEV) into its daily operations on UK roads, in collaboration with Scania. This announcement comes as the Glasgow-based firm officially took ownership of three prototype FCEV vehicles at Scania’s flagship service branch in Scotland – Eurocentral. The occasion marks an important milestone in the UK’s HGV decarbonisation journey, as these three Scania trucks will become the first fuel cell trucks to go into full real-world operational testing on the UK roads. The vehicles form part of The ZENFreight project, which is part of the Zero Emission HGVs & Infrastructure Demonstrator programme (ZEHID), funded by the Department for Transport and delivered in partnership by Innovate UK. A UK First: John G Russell and Scania to thoroughly test the viability of FCEV in day-to-day operations
