Hydrogen fuel cells

🌿🚗 The future of automotive is hydrogen, and we are at the forefront of this revolution! Our advanced hydrogen technologies are changing the way we think about transportation, offering a clean and efficient energy source that can replace traditional fossil fuels. Hydrogen as a fuel is not only an environmental solution but also a technology that brings numerous benefits to users. Hydrogen-powered vehicles are characterized by short refueling times and long ranges, making them an ideal choice for a wide range of applications—from passenger cars to trucks and buses. We invite you to discover how advanced hydrogen technologies are transforming the world of transportation and how hydrogen can become a key element of a sustainable future. #HydrogenInAutomotive #CleanEnergy #FutureOfTransport #HydrogenEngineering #SustainableTransport #FutureTechnologies

good topic , thx for sharing, fuelcell technology is the upcoming one

Indeed, it is another milestone! 👏 And again another great step we are doing in our hydrogen strategy.👍 Today, together with Linde we opened our first public hydrogen station for liquid #hydrogen with our new developed sLH2 technology in Wörth, near our factory in South Germany. It is the first of its kind: 👉easy like Diesel: just taking the dispenser 👉Fast like Diesel: with 400 kg/h, meaning less than 15 min for more than 1,000 km range 👉just a few space needed like Diesel: 50m2 for the entire station, thats it. With that technology we come very close to the high usability and flexibility we know from today‘s road freight transport and we still need for the future. The main difference: zero emission! That matters #energytransition #climateaction #climateaction #trucks #H2 #HRS Daimler Truck AG

Fuelcell Truck: 📍Nikola Corp showcased its hydrogen fuel cell truck at CES 2024 on January 7, designed specifically for regional hauling. 📍The truck boasts an impressive 500-mile range, even when pulling a loaded trailer. 📍A key feature is its significant hydrogen capacity of 70 kilograms. 📍Equipped with two backup batteries, it offers an additional 164-kilowatt hour total power. 📍The design focuses on maneuverability, suitable for navigating through busy ports and regional routes. 📍Nikola's innovation represents a significant advancement in sustainable transportation technology. 📍This truck is set to revolutionize the regional haul sector, aligning with growing sustainability trends. #NikolaTruck #GreenTrucking #FutureHaul #EcoLogistics #TruckTech #greenhydrogen #CleanDrive #NikolaInnovation https://lnkd.in/gviZcWXY

Another milestone and great step in developing a viable hydrogen strategy for commercial logistics.

Plug Power has developed a new hydrogen-powered truck An innovative Class 6 hydrogen-powered fuel cell truck, which is suitable for middle-mile, medium-duty deliveries, has been developed by Plug Power. Plug Power’s truck is able to travel up to 500 miles, through the use of an electric propulsion system, which has been proven to be successful within the industry. The electric propulsion system is efficiently powered by Plug’s ProGen fuel cell technology. It’s ability to travel up to 500 miles, will be extremely important for middle-mile deliveries and another advantage, is that the vehicle does not need a commercial driver’s license (CDL) for operation. This makes the vehicle better for the environment and it makes it more accessible for a wider variety of drivers. At the moment, the truck is fully developed and is in its final integration and testing phase. The plan for the summer of 2024 is for the operational pilots to commence and this will be done through a collaboration with Plug’s key market leader logistic customers. Performing these tests and completing the final phase will provide the company with valuable real-world data and feedback and will therefore provide them with the opportunity for future improvements and other developments. Plug CEO, Andy Marsh, commented, “Plug continues to lead charge in developing and deploying hydrogen fuel cell solutions for electric vehicle platforms. Our ProGen engine, built on decades of operational experience, offers unmatched benefits for middle-mile delivery – range, rapid fuelling, cargo volume optimisation and higher power densities.” #funding #investing #fintech #technology #sustainability #growth #cybersecurity #environment #food #automation #automotive #recycling #nutrition #medicine #robotics #farming #augmentedreality #neuroscience #grants #ukgrants #startupgrants #businessgrants #ukgovernmentgrant #sme #smegrant #businessfunding #smefunding #technologygrant #innovationgrant #capti #captiinnovation #gamechanging #gamechanginginnovation #disruptiveinnovation #smartgrant #ai #manufacturing #sustainable #innovation #telecoms #semiconductors #business #IUK #InnovateUK #SmartGrant #InnovateUKfunding

In addition to solar, wind, and nuclear energy, clean hydrogen is another viable option, as the world races to reach net zero emissions. Amid surging demand for electricity due in part to a rise in electric vehicles (EVs), there is no single clean energy source that will be adequate to meet the growing demand for electricity. This is why we need to scale all possible clean energy sources including clean hydrogen. Falling back on fossil fuels such as natural gas to meet the high demand for electricity is not a viable option due to the associated CO2 emissions. Hydrogen has the highest energy density of all the energy sources that are currently available and can store the most energy for a given amount of mass. It can be made clean by sequestering the CO2 emissions arising during production and storing them underground or re-utilizing them for other purposes. We are beginning to see vehicles powered by clean hydrogen being produced, which is a very promising development. When produced at scale, hydrogen-powered vehicles will likely use a lot less electricity than EVs and be more cost effective too, while keeping the world on track to reach net zero emissions.

We believe so much in the power of #drayage that we want to practice it in a way that enables it to continue indefinitely. One way we're doing that is by adding ZEVs and hydrogen fuel cell electric trucks to our fleet on the West Coast.
