H59-D Autonomous™

Hydrogen / Diesel Blending

Lower operating costs and emissions through a straightforward retrofit. ESSNA™ owns, installs, and operates the system — no CapEx required.

Reduce Diesel Consumption and Carbon Intensity Without Fleet Replacement

ESSNA’s™ hydrogen diesel blending system retrofit to existing heavy-duty engines. Hydrogen is blended into the combustion process for a cleaner, more efficient burn — delivering immediate impact, lowering cost and carbon intensity.

ESSNA's Hydrogen Advantage

Zero CapEx Setup

All H59D Autonomous™ Equipment is provided, with no CapEx expectation of the client. ESSNA™ installs and maintains the system while you pay only for hydrogen consumed.

Supplied Hydrogen

ESSNA™ provides the required hydrogen at the point of use, eliminating the need for deliveries.

Carbon Credit Access

Reduce emissions and unlock incentives through clean fuel programs.
(Subject to Project Environment / CI Model)

Lower Fuel Costs

Blend hydrogen with diesel to cut fuel expenses without changing your fleet

How it Works

ESSNA™’s hydrogen-diesel blending system integrates with existing heavy-duty engines to introduce hydrogen into the combustion process in a controlled, autonomous manner — without replacing engines or altering normal vehicle operation.

1

Supplied Hydrogen

As part of the solution, ESSNA™ provides the hydrogen supply used for diesel–hydrogen blending.

2

Precision Blending

The H59-D Autonomous™ blending module injects hydrogen into the diesel combustion process using precision controls, without altering engine design or performance.

3

Cleaner Combustion

Blended hydrogen enables a cleaner, more efficient diesel burn, delivering measurable reductions in diesel consumption and carbon intensity while maintaining engine uptime.

4

Autonomous Operation

The system operates autonomously during normal driving conditions, requiring no driver input and no changes to existing vehicle operation or workflows. Controlled by ESSNA_OTA™.

Solutions for Every Fleet

Our Turnkey Process

We handle the entire process — with no upfront spend, you're only remunerated on your savings.

1. Fleet Assessment & Blending Suitability

We begin by assessing your fleet, duty cycles, and diesel consumption to determine where hydrogen–diesel blending delivers the greatest operational and carbon-intensity benefits.This assessment focuses on blending suitability and how ESSNA™ supplies hydrogen to support your operation.

2. Retrofit & System Installation

We do a straightforward retrofit to your trucks to run on a hydrogen-diesel blend. Fully funded by ESSNA™, with zero setup fees or capital required from you.

3. Full-Service Operation & Maintenance

Once installed, the H-59™ Opco operates the unit end-to-end — handling all monitoring, refuelling logistics, and maintenance so your team doesn’t have to.

4. Fail-Safe Operation

The blending system is continuously monitored, with immediate alerts if an issue is detected. In the event of a malfunction, the vehicle automatically reverts to standard diesel operation—ensuring uninterrupted operation while ESSNA™ resolves the issue. A similar process applies in the event of a collision.

Frequently Asked Questions

What fleet operators ask us most.

1. Do I need to replace my fleet to use hydrogen?

No. Our hydrogen-diesel blend works with your existing diesel engines, so there’s no need to invest in new vehicles to start reducing emissions and fuel costs.

2. How much does the system cost to install?

Nothing upfront. ESSNA™ covers the cost of installation and setup. You only pay for the hydrogen fuel you use.

3. What if my operations can’t afford downtime?

The system is continuously monitored, with immediate alerts if an issue is detected. In the event of any interruption, the vehicle automatically reverts to standard diesel operation, ensuring uninterrupted work while ESSNA™ addresses the issue.

4. Can I qualify for carbon credits or low-carbon fuel incentives?

Hydrogen–diesel blending can lower your fleet’s carbon intensity, which may improve eligibility for carbon credits or government incentive programs. Eligibility and program availability vary by jurisdiction. ESSNA™ recommends reviewing applicable federal, state, or provincial programs relevant to your operation.
