RS134: Can Hydrogen Fuel Cell Technology Deliver for Trucking?

The transportation industry is under pressure from government regulators and some shipper customers to reduce carbon emissions. However, factors such as long distances, variable routes, high uptime requirements, strict driving-time limits and maximizing payload capacity make decarbonization particularly difficult for longhaul trucking. Given the added weight and charging requirements of battery-electric trucks, some truck makers and suppliers are investing in hydrogen. Hydrogen fuel cell trucks, which convert hydrogen into electricity to run an electric powertrain, have emerged as one of the more promising technology pathways to zero emissions. But how, where and when can these vehicles fit into the freight transportation industry? Find out with CEO of Hyzon, a company that designs and manufactures fuel cell technology for heavy duty transport applications. Tune in.
