Analýza využití zásahových vozidel s alternativním pohonem u HZS ČR a v zahraničí

Abstract

This bachelor’s thesis deals with the issue of alternative propulsion systems in firefighting vehicles. The thesis focuses on the analysis of different types of alternative drives, especially electric, compressed natural gas (CNG), hydrogen, and hybrid systems, and evaluates their advantages and disadvantages in relation to the operation of fire and rescue units. The work also includes an overview of international experience, where these vehicles are already used in practice, and compares them with the conditions in the Czech Republic. Part of the thesis is a questionnaire survey conducted among members of fire units, which provides insight into the practical applicability of this technology. The conclusion evaluates the potential use of alternative propulsion systems in the Czech Republic with respect to legislative requirements and proposes possible directions for their future implementation.
