Guy Férez the Mayor of AUXERRE this week announced that starting from 2022, the Auxerre / Laroche Migennes train line be equipped with a hydrogen train .
Governments and companies in the Northern Netherlands want to invest 2.8 billion euros in the large-scale application of sustainably generated hydrogen over the next twelve years.
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the U.S. Department of Energy announced up to $51.5 million for new and innovative research of technologies for trucks, off-road vehicles, and the fuels that power them. Funded through the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE), this FOA addresses priorities in gaseous fuels research, including natural gas, biopower, and hydrogen; heavy-duty freight electrification; hydrogen infrastructure and fuel cell technologies for heavy-duty applications; and energy efficient off-road vehicles.
Benschop/Delft, the Netherlands—Terberg Benschop B.V. and zepp.solutions B.V. join forces for the development of a proof of concept hydrogen fuel cell yard tractor.
Besides the full electric Terberg EV tractor, Terberg has identified the potential for another zero emission yard tractor solution, the hydrogen fuel cell powered yard tractor YT203-H2.
Another milestone for the hydrogen fuel cells: the CleverShuttle Ride Service announces that its 45 Toyota Mirai’s (fuel consumption hydrogen 0.76 kg / 100 km, combined power consumption 0 kWh / 100 km; Emissions combined 0 g / km) have combined for one million kilometers without emissions within 15 months and transported more than 170,000 passengers.
On February 18 2019, Hongda Xingye signed a Hydrogen Energy Project Cooperation Agreement with the Beijing Aerospace Experimental Technology Research Institute.
The fuel cell drive is environmentally friendly and has the potential to change the area of intralogistics. This also applies to the food industry with its delicate products and its efforts towards greater sustainability.
In an article written for Lebensmittel Zeitung (issue 5/2019 of “Food Products Newspaper”), NOW GmbH Managing Director, Wolfgang Axthammer, highlights the fact that the introduction of fuel cell drives in intralogistics is supported by federal funding.
The Council of Australian Governments’ (COAG) Hydrogen Working Group is seeking input to help inform the development of a new clean hydrogen industry.
WATERLOO, Ontario — The Canadian Urban Transit Research and Innovation Consortium (CUTRIC) has announced important funding for an innovative collaboration between industry, university and government to develop new ground-breaking hydrogen fuel cell technology. “This funding will integrate and develop zero-emission Hydrogen Fuel Cell technologies, advancing low and zero carbon solutions for urban mobility, one of CUTRIC’s key pillars,” says Josipa Petrunic, CUTRIC’s Executive Director and CEO.
