MEPs consider tractors powered by hydrogen at eco-farming showcase

Tractors powered by hydrogen extracted from water are being considered by MEPs in Brussels.

Ireland East MEP Mairead McGuinness was among the panel of EU delegates given an in-depth look at the new NH2 tractor from New Holland Agriculture.

The viewing was part of an eco-farming event at the European Parliament, entitled “Innovation and Technologies for a Sustainable Agriculture,” aimed at developing an energy-independent farm.
