BAFS, ITURRI join hands in bid to meet emissions goal

BAFS Intech recently joined forces with Spain’s Iturri, the world’s leading manufacturer of aircraft refuelling vehicles, to accelerate its battery electric vehicle (BEV) production in the hydrant dispensers.

To promote environmentally friendly and 100-per-cent electrically powered innovations, the vehicles can ensure net-zero carbon dioxide emissions while being able to reach a maximum running distance of 170 kilometres and refuel an average of eight fights on a single full charge. The strategic collaboration is expected to develop a new range of innovative products designed appropriately and exclusively for users in the Asia-Pacific region.

The collaboration also unveils Iturri’s intention to keep developing new solutions for zero-emission vehicles, particularly to comply with new rules and regulations established by the International Civil Aviation Organisation for the reduction of carbon dioxide, carbon footprint and noise at airports.
