Hino unveiled a hydrogen fuel-cell-electric prototype version of its Class 8 XL8 truck at the 2021 ACT Expo in Long Beach, California.
If hydrogen fuel-cell trucks are truly part of the answer for a zero-emissions future, the upstream process of producing and transporting that hydrogen fuel also needs to be “green.”
Hyzon Motors is betting on liquid hydrogen to power its trucks, rather than the gaseous hydrogen being used by most fuel-cell-electric truck developers, saying it will enable an up to 1,000-mile range.
Daimler Trucks is rapidly ramping down its internal-combustion-engine development as it puts more research and development investments into its dual-focus zero-emissions strategy of both battery-electric and fuel-cell-electric commercial vehicles.
Daimler Trucks has begun rigorous testing of its second-generation hydrogen-powered prototype truck, which the company calls an important milestone on the path to production of the Mercedes-Benz GenH2 Truck.
Nikola and RIG360 expect to finalize distribution plans and agreements in the coming months in order to fully support customers in the sale and service of the Nikola Tre BEV.
A Department of Energy representative laid out how fleets can thrive in an alternative energy transportation future during a Work Truck Show digital presentation.
Nikola said it will start building prototypes of its fuel-cell-electric cabover truck in the second quarter. When will it – and the FCEV sleeper-truck Nikola Two – hit the road?
Navistar, partnering with General Motors and hydrogen fuel-provider OneH2, believes it will have a hydrogen fuel-cell regional Class 8 truck available by MY 2024, with a complete ecosystem that addresses the fueling concerns that have been a stumbling block for the development of fuel-cell electric trucks.
Nikola said it has secured an innovative electric rate schedule with Arizona Public Service Company that will accelerate the development of hydrogen-based fueling solutions for the transportation industry.
