🚀 Hyzon Breaking News! 🌍 Today marks a monumental milestone for Hyzon, a U.S.-based leader in hydrogen fuel cell technology. We are thrilled to announce the Start of Production (SOP) for our innovative Class 8 200kW Fuel Cell Electric Truck (FCET), developed in collaboration with North Carolina-based Fontaine Modification Company. Our CEO Parker Meeks said it best, “Today marks the beginning of a new chapter for ‘hard-to-decarbonize’ heavy-duty industries, as Hyzon sets the standard for high-performance, zero-emission alternatives to diesel.” With years of engineering behind us, our Class 8 200kW FCET has evolved from prototype to production-ready, empowering fleet operators to reduce emissions without sacrificing power, range, or reliability. This truck features a cutting-edge single stack 200kW fuel cell system, which is 30% lighter and 25% more cost-efficient than traditional systems. As we transition from prototype to series production, we are committed to delivering vehicles that meet the operational demands of heavy-duty transport. Hyzon is also on track to achieve ISO 9001 certification by Q4 2024, ensuring the highest quality standards in our production processes. Join us on this journey toward a sustainable future in transportation!

Recently, our Garland, TX team had a special luncheon to celebrate Jaime Reyes. Jaime normally works at the Laredo shop but was sent to Garland to assist us in managing our increased workload. Jaime arrived in Garland in late May and stuck with us through the second week of August. He was an asset to us during his time here, working on our Peterbilt auto hauler low roof modification. From day one, he excelled on the auto hauler line. He provided us with valuable feedback and suggestions of what would make the process easier. We gave Jaime a Certificate of Appreciation, and $100 Visa gift card to thank him for sticking it out with us and living in a hotel for the past 90+ days. Thanks for everything Jaime!
