Cenex is the UK’s premier event for the future of mobility, combining insights from the Low Carbon Vehicle (LCV) and Connected Automated Mobility (CAM) sectors.

Moakes informed us that the Mira Technology (MTP) Park in Nuneaton is close to rolling out its hydrogen refuelling capabilities, producing its own green hydrogen on-site, which refers to hydrogen produced using renewable energy sources like wind, solar, or hydropower, making it a zero-emission fuel.

The proof-of-concept vehicle was assembled, deployed and tested at the MIRA Technology Park in Nuneaton, UK. The prototype is expected to be tested by operators and OEMs during the rest of 2024.

The exhibition, which took place from the 6th to the 7th of September, attracted over 150 exhibitors involved in low-carbon mobility. The exhibition had a small collection of companies dedicated to the commercial vehicle market sector.

The project aims to build a commercially competitive 44-tonne proof of concept Hydrogen Fuel Cell (HFC) heavy goods tractor unit. With funding from the UK’s Advanced Propulsion Centre, project ICEBreaker is set to begin next month (October 2023) with the aim of developing lighter, more efficient hydrogen fuel cell Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) with a lower cost of ownership.

HVS is on track to be the first UK-designed and developed hydrogen-electric HGV on the market, and with the recent financial backing of the EG group, they just might get there.

IDV hope to build on Horiba Mira’s expertise in remote control, teleoperated and autonomous vehicle technology.

A green refuelling forecourt providing hydrogen onsite at MTP will expand Horiba MIRA’s testing-as-a-service to support next-gen mobility companies.

Horiba MIRA has opened a Connected and Autonomous Vehicle (CAV) testing centre spread over an 850-hectare site at its research and testing facility in Nuneaton.

This partnership has many advantages, significant investment in the UK, the enablement of a state-of-the-art test facility to maintain Ceres’ technology leadership and support for our rapidly growing global partner base. We look forward to establishing a long-term partnership with HORIBA MIRA.

Horiba MIRA Ltd has invested GBP1.5m installing a new Large Climatic Vibration Laboratory and Battery Abuse Facility at its Nuneaton Proving Ground.

The MIRA Technology Park, one of Europe’s leading mobility R&D centres for automotive technologies, has announced it is partnering with Plug and Play, the US innovation platform for start-up technology companies to create the UK’s first Mobility Innovation Hub.
