Investing in Hydrogen Technologies

For a limited period there is an opportunity for suitable investors to be a part of our journey, as Metier Ventures Ltd is currently raising funds.

Full details on the investment opportunity, including the Investment Offer, an Executive Summary and a full pitch deck can be requested HERE.

Invest in a greener future for truck & bus transport

Metier Ventures Ltd, based near Oxford – UK, is a market leader in the decarbonisation of trucks and buses, by repowering with Hydrogen Internal Combustion Engine (H2ICE) technology - The lowest cost and quickest route to decarbonisation at scale.

Metier Technologies – Purchased from Rheinmetall in Nov 2022 – is Metier’s R&D company.

The challenge:  Companies are finding their heavy duty transport fleets the hardest to decarbonise. They work on small margins and while they may wish to move to zero emissions, profitability is their main concern.

Metier’s repower strategy: is to initially focus on rigid trucks that are used by companies delivering into urban areas and return to base daily, thus negating the requirement for roadside H2.

The driver for Metier’s customers: Towns and cities are enforcing clean air policies through ULEZ, LEZ etc, followed by Government regulation. Additionally, routes are opening to H2 availability at prices cheaper than diesel.

Metier’s first products: A 6.7ltr H2ICE and a repowered DAF LF 18 ton rigid truck - one of the most popular of its type in Europe. Other engines and trucks beyond 2028.

Metier has also developed H2 fuel system components that support repower.

Introducing Metier Repower

Our Demonstration Truck on the Road

 

H2 fuel supply is critical. Initially H2 supply fuel is localised. Metier’s strategy is to work with selected fuel suppliers that show they can offer prices at near diesel parity by 2028 and then, together, approach fleets with DAF LFs in their local areas.

This will lead to fuel being available from Hydrogen Refuelling Stations (HRSs) and transport company, depot-based H2 fuelling, both of which can a) survive because they have offtake from any early stage, and b) thrive, because they can supply local transport companies, and possibly heavy duty trucks moving through their area.

The expectation is that this will create enough core H2 refuelling stations around the country to encourage other fleets to start buying H2 trucks.

Fleets want guaranteed supply of H2 fuel and H2 suppliers require guaranteed offtake.

It is this strategy that is attracting a large global automotive company to support Metier, offering Metier £ms in support, as they believe Metier can kickstart H2 for heavy duty transport.

Metier’s forecast for H2 fuel required by it’s customers in tonnes is:

2026

2027

2028

2029

2030

225

2,122

14,062

28,425

35,625

Technologies

  • Metier 6.7ltr H2 ICE – a converted FPT (Iveco) CNG engine - in operation
  • DAF LF 18t rigid, repowered with Metier’s 6.7ltr H2ICE and now running on UK public roads
  • Metier H2 fuel system components – On-Tank-Valve and regulator

All above proven to work and market-ready by the end of 2026

  • Variable Valve Actuation (VVA) technologies - fully proven and market ready
  • Metier have agreements, or are in negotiation for, H2 production engines which will be available starting from 2027 through to 2030

These range from 6.7ltrs to 15ltrs and can be used in larger rigid trucks, semis, buses, coaches and off-road machinery.

H2 ICE Repowering

  • The most commercially viable way to decarbonise heavy duty transport
  • Costs less than a new diesel base vehicle and substantially less than a battery electric truck
  • Avoids necessity of replacing specialist on-vehicle equipment – e.g. waste collectors, freezer boxes, cranes etc
  • Quick turnaround, under 3-4 weeks
  • Accelerates the transition of fleets to achieve zero emissions and meet decarbonisation targets
  • Original diesel powertrain recycled for spares
  • 5 - 10 year extended vehicle life
  • Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) similar to diesel, starting in selected areas from 2028
  • Carbon footprint of vehicle sustained, limiting increases
  • Forecast saving of CO2 for our initial target vehicle (DAF LF) is 74.3 tonnes per vehicle, per annum
  • Retains mechanical and operational similarities to conventional ICEs

Repower centres

  • Repower centres (RC) designed for 1,000 trucks p.a.
  • RC can be located in areas where there are incentives for employment etc – vehicles drive to and from RC – range 250 miles+
  • RC requires minimal infrastructure 

Commercial

Metier's UK soft launch of it’s repower business in September 2025.

Enquiries were received from the UK, Europe, Balkans, USA and Korea

Multiple discussions now ongoing regarding:

  • Repower in the UK and Europe,
  • Sales of Metier H2 components to Korea/Asia,
  • Sales of Metier H2 engine to Korea
  • Development and sales of an H2 generator

Metier Technologies Europe S.r.l. was formed in Q4 25 and is handling our European interests. Metier is forming a JV in Korea to handle the Asian markets.

Metier skills and IP

  • Significant expertise in H2 engines, vehicle repower, components and Variable Valve Activation (VVA) - our historic technology
  • Metier Technologies has 10 years experience of working with large automotive companies and understands volume production
  • 40+ patents in VVA
  • 2 patents applied for in H2 repower
  • 3 patents granted or applied in relating to H2 components

We are now even stronger in our belief that we can provide the solution that will open-up the market for H2 ICE in heavy duty transport, starting from 2027. So, if you'd like to be a part of bringing a clean, green technology to truck and bus mobilty, please get in touch to request full details of this remarkable opportunity.
