Why Fuel Cell Trucks?

Why Fuel Cell Trucks?

Heavy-duty transportation is among the key sectors that are considered hard to decarbonize. Given the important role of freight transportation in the global economy, accelerating the zero-emission truck technologies will have a significant impact on eliminating transportation emissions, and improving the life quality and health of underserved communities, drivers, and transportation workers that are affected negatively by the air pollutions and carbon emissions arising from the movement of freights and goods along the transportation corridors, freight highways, and warehouses.

In the last few years, a growing number of international reports and roadmaps focusing on climate change, clean energy transition, and the transportation sector have identified decarbonizing heavy-duty transportation as an important objective toward net-zero emissions and recognized the unique role of hydrogen and fuel cells in realizing this goal. 

In addition, reports and studies reflecting the needs and priorities of fleets highlighted the unique advantages of fuel-cell electric trucks compared to diesel and battery-electric trucks.
