The direct injection two-stroke engine could be a very promising and interesting option for hydrogen combustion to achieve zero NO x because of its advantages of high-power density and inherent much lower NO x emissions. Achates Power expects close to the same level of thermal efficiency with hydrogen as a fuel. Fuel Injection.

The buses consume up to 50% less fuel and reduce exhaust emissions by the same amount. The bus can use this energy to run entirely on electric power for stretches at a time and thus with zero emissions. The bus operates more efficiently, emits less exhaust and is quieter because the diesel engine does not rev up during acceleration.
