There's a massive scheme down in Teesside with the combined authority which is why Stagecoach and Arriva have been trialing loads of hydrogen buses, it's just a matter of time before they're in service down there. I know there was a bit committed for the 23/24 year but the Zebra failure might have delayed it abit.

The bus which probably prompted this will be this - https://www.focustransport.org/2021/08/r...rofit.html

Indeed Teesside is the focus, a E400 has arrived at Wheatsheaf for wrapping and word is that's where it is going, mind it has little interior. 
Hydrogen has to be seen a better alternative to EV, the batteries are a Nightmare and cost more to dispose of than make. GNE has ample space at it's newer depots to cope with an alternative propulsion..
