For heavy hauling, hydrogen trucks are the answer. Find out why Fuel Cell Electric trucks (FCETs) beat the Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) competition in these applications:
🏋️ Lower weight – Hyzon FCETs can be up to 5,000 lbs lighter than other FCET's and BEVs. That means up to 5,000 lbs more payload to generate revenue.
💡 Hyzon offers the lightest Zero Emission Class 8 Truck (FCET or BEV) commercially available today in the U.S. with a range of at least 250 miles.
🛣️ Longer range – Hyzon FCETs can drive longer routes than BEVs
💡 Hyzon FCEVs’ range is 25-50 percent greater than a typical BEV.
⏱️ Faster refueling – FCEVs refuel like CNG vehicles – no lengthy battery charging required.
💡 Hyzon FCEVs refuel its entire range in 10-20 minutes, vs. hours for BEV to do the same
⚡ Easier infrastructure – To charge a fleet of just 100-200 BEVs, it can 2-5 years to build the necessary electric charging and grid infrastructure. FCEVs can operate independently of the grid.
💡 “Hyzon’s refuse collection FCEV can be refueled with hydrogen produced in multiple ways, providing more flexibility in fueling infrastructure. For instance, a fleet may start by wet hose fueling right behind their fence. This can be done because of the 350 bar fuel pressure, different than other brands - including using localized, modular production technologies that create hydrogen from landfill waste.
