IMI chooses Blackburn College to test new hydrogen car certification program
The Institute of the Motor Industry (IMI) has selected Blackburn College to test a new hydrogen car certification program.
It will provide Level 2 and 3 hydrogen vehicle awareness certifications through its cutting-edge Hybrid Electric Automotive Training (HEAT) center, which debuted in 2022, targeted at those who are currently employed in the sector.
As we move toward reducing vehicle emissions, it is expected that hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles, or FCEVs, will coexist with electric vehicles as an environmentally friendly option for drivers. These certifications will guarantee that the region’s motor industry has the knowledge and resources necessary to work with FCEV technology.
