The new Volvo VNL will be the platform for all upcoming technologies, including future transportation solutions of battery-electric, fuel cell and internal combustion engines running on renewable fuels including hydrogen. The first 24-volt electrical infrastructure in the North American trucking industry ...
The hydrogen-powered combustion engine trucks will complement Volvo’s offering of other alternatives, such as battery electric trucks, fuel cell electric trucks and trucks that run on renewable fuels, like biogas and HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil). Trucks that run on green hydrogen instead of fo...
The fuel cells will be supplied by cellcentric – the joint venture between the Volvo Group and Daimler Truck AG. Cellcentric will build one of Europe’s largest series production facilities for fuel-cells, specially developed for heavy vehicles. More green hydrogen needed Fuel cell technology is ...
The Volvo zero-emission truck only emits pure water vapor. The truck also generates electricity on board. Surprisingly the truck has a 1000 km range. This unbelievable feat is only possible due to modern fuel cell technology and Hydrogen. ...
These will be battery-electric and fuel cell electric trucks with a longer range. Volvo Trucks aims to start selling electric trucks powered by hydrogen fuel cells in the second half of this decade. Volvo Trucks’ objective is for its entire product range to be fossil-free by 2040. “To ...
Electric vehicles for demanding and heavy long-haul operations will follow in this decade. These will be battery-electric and fuel cell electric trucks with a longer range. Volvo Trucks aims to start selling electric trucks powered by hydrogen fuel cells ...
Simply put, fuel cells work by combining hydrogen with oxygen, with the resulting chemical reaction producing electricity. The process is completely emissions-free, with the only by product being water vapor. In principle, a fuel cell works much like a battery, except that it generates its own...
Martin Daum, chair of industry leader Daimler Truck, told the Financial Times that while diesel trucks would dominate sales for the next three to four years, hydrogen would take off as fuel between 2027 and 2030 before going “steeply up”. ...
Germany's Daimler Truck AG and Sweden's Volvo Group say they plan to jointly manufacture hydrogen fuel cells for trucks in Europe starting in 2025 and called on European Union policymakers to boost incentives for climate-neutral ...
Volvo unveiled its first hydrogen fuel cell heavy truck in 2022, and testing on public roads kicked off earlier in 2023. Hydrogen is thought to be a particularly good fit for heavy trucks running longer distances in regions where battery power alone would struggle, such as rural areas lacking ...
