CRMT submits its H2020 BLUESKY innovative proposal

Published on 19/06/2024

"The Green Mobility accelerator to transform Diesel vehicles into hydrogen and biomethane."

BLUESKY is an innovative solution for SMEs in the transport sector, who cannot afford to buy new vehicles that are too expensive (electric, hydrogen, natural gas) and who struggle finding a solution to transform their diesel vehicles. The kit can also be integrated directly into the production line of engine manufacturers, thereby encouraging the development of new efficient and very low-emission engines and allowing them to adapt their existing Diesel production chains to a future and promising production.

The project was recognized by the EU when it obtained the label of excellence in May 2019.

Since then, CRMT has carried out additional work to orient the development of BLUESKY towards a zero fossil fuel objective promoting the use of hydrogen and biomethane.

The reinforced proposal was submitted on May 19th 2020 under the Green Deal of the European Union thematics.

BLUESKY is a pragmatic solution to drastically reduce emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) and pollutants generated by the transport sector (NOx, particles) which will allow thousands of companies to comply with the objectives of the Green Deal of the European Union. It will also reduce the inevitable and long-term dependence of the European transport sector on fossil fuels (mainly diesel).

A special thank you to all the partner companies that support the BLUESKY project, as well as Région Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, who participated to the funding of the project proposal construction.
