Truck companies and shippers are increasingly incorporating zero-emission vehicles into their fleets, with a rise in both battery-powered and hydrogen-powered trucks. DHL Supply Chain has made a notable move by acquiring two hydrogen trucks built by Nikola to operate in Illinois for Diageo North America. These trucks, which convert hydrogen to electricity through a fuel cell, will be refueled at Diageo's Plainfield campus using gaseous hydrogen initially. The use of green hydrogen, produced from fully renewable energy sources, makes DHL eligible for proposed tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act. DHL aims to have these hydrogen vehicles on the road by the end of the year, expecting an 80% reduction in carbon emissions within a year compared to diesel vehicles. The benefits of these hydrogen trucks extend beyond emissions reduction, offering a range of up to 500 miles and improved driver comfort and safety. The decision-making process for incorporating hydrogen technology involved assessing sustainability benefits, operational constraints, and collaboration with various stakeholders like Diageo and first responders to ensure safety and preparedness. Overall, DHL's entry into hydrogen vehicles signifies a strategic move towards sustainable and efficient fleet management.
