Abu Dhabi has announced the pilot operation of the first hydrogen-powered taxi as it works towards achieving an ideal sustainable urban transport. 

The trial will collect data on a number of factors, including kilometres travelled, amount of hydrogen used, operating hours, and the mechanism for clean refuelling operations.

This will later be studied and analysed to map out the future blueprint.

The collaboration between Integrated Transport Centre (ITC) and Tawasul Transport, ADNOC Distribution, and Futtaim Automotive also focuses on achieving Abu Dhabi's environmental goals that are in line with the objectives of COP28.
