A new device separates hydrogen from natural gas when the two gases are blended in pipelines.
Three global vehicle makers have announced programs with major implications for hydrogen fuel cell technology, including in heavy-duty commercial vehicles.
The addition of these cars to the Red Cross fleet aligns with Gov. Gavin Newsom’s executive order moving California toward zero-emission vehicles by 2035.
Isuzu and Honda have announced that they will be working together to develop hydrogen fuel cell technologies for commercial trucks and passenger car markets.
The California Air Resources Board wants to accelerate zero-emissions vehicle technology in the next 10 years through regulation. But OEMs and fleets have concerns about the viability of new technology in large-scale use.
Using a Nikola hydogen-electric truck and a BYD electric truck, Anheuser-Busch completed a delivery from its brewery to a local wholesale partner that the company is touting as its first "zero-emissions beer delivery."
Iwatani Corp. of America acquired several hydrogen-refueling stations in California, expanding its global reach by marking its entry in the United States which is designed to extend the hydrogen supply chain infrastructure.
Battery-electric vehicles are the key to zero-emission commercial transportation in North America, according to Daimler Trucks North America, which is moving forward with battery-electric vehicle commercialization, contending that hydrogen fuel cells aren’t ready for prime time.
Nikola plans to make hydrogen the transportation fuel of the future. Plenty of hurdles remain to be overcome before that happens, but the strategy the company disclosed at Nikola World 2019 seems workable. One of the biggest challenges could be getting the rest of the world to see the solution as Nikola sees it.
There’s water, water everywhere, and little of it being transformed into fuel. Nikola Motor wants to change that – as well as the way fleets pay for trucks and their fuel – as it rolls out the new hydrogen-powered Nikola Two.
