A smile to celebrate the first #hydrogenpowered vehicle now operating in Italy. What I value most in my work is the opportunity to experience moments like this and to be part of them. This project didn’t start yesterday. It goes back to 2021. There were times when we genuinely thought we wouldn’t make it, when the level of complexity and the obstacles ahead made it feel like everything could fall apart. And yet, here we are. Years later, ready to launch what represents a crucial real-world test for the entire sector. A complex and demanding project, where the real difference was made by people, people who, when things became difficult, chose not to step back. This is not just about a vehicle. It is about an entire value chain coming together to build something that did not exist before: a new ecosystem around hydrogen in transport. I don’t expect the coming months to be easy. But we are here. And we are ready to start.
