Paccar and Toyota are expanding their joint efforts to develop and produce zero-emissions, hydrogen fuel cell Kenworth and Peterbilt trucks powered by Toyota’s next-generation hydrogen fuel cell modules.
The ZANZEFF “Shore to Store” project proved fuel-cell electric trucks can match diesel performance to provide a zero-emissions alternative ready for commercial deployment.
4 Gen Logistics plans to deploy 41 Volvo VNR electric trucks and Electrify America plans to install 30 electric fleet-dedicated chargers at the Port of Long Beach.
The Kenworth K270E and K370E battery electric vehicles offer direct-drive motors rated at 355 hp for the K270E and 469 hp for the K370E.
The financial incentive is offered through the 2022 CARB Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP).
Schneider Electric will provide the electric vehicle infrastructure design and microgrid resiliency to support the Paccar SuperTruck 3 program for heavy- and medium-duty trucks in the United States and Canada.
Kenworth’s electric-vehicle funding initiative tracks more than 75 federal, state, county, and municipal grant and incentive programs in the U.S. and Canada.
To attain initial EV certification, Kenworth technicians must successfully complete a challenging seven-course curriculum.
Kenworth and WAVE will participate in the U.S. Department of Energy’s electrified powertrain project to develop a 1-megawatt wireless charging system for Class 8 electric trucks.
Hydrogen fuel-cell truck development isn’t as close to commercial viability as battery-electric, but it has advanced by leaps and bounds in the past few years.
