  • The partnership highlights the growing demand for hydrogen-powered vehicles in the waste industry and signifies a step forward in transforming trucking operations to zero-emission vehicles.
Hyzon and GreenWaste have initiated a pioneering partnership to introduce the first 12 hydrogen-powered refuse Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEVs) in North America. This collaboration signifies a significant leap towards reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the waste industry. Hyzon, a U.S.-based hydrogen fuel cell system manufacturer, has begun production of its 200-kilowatt fuel cell system, enabling the mass production of standardized systems for commercial sale. The CEO of Hyzon, Parker Meeks, highlighted the importance of the partnership with GreenWaste in revolutionizing trucking operations by offering high-performance hydrogen fuel cells for refuse collection vehicles. The hydrogen-powered FCEVs promise zero tailpipe emissions, aligning with GreenWaste's goal to reduce total combined Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 45% by 2030. Tracy Adams, the CEO of GreenWaste, emphasized the company's commitment to sustainability and innovation, positioning themselves as industry leaders in environmentally responsible waste management. GreenWaste's investment in zero-emission technology demonstrates their dedication to sustainable resource recovery and recycling. The successful trial routes of Hyzon's refuse FCEV in the Bay Area paved the way for the commercial operation of hydrogen-powered vehicles, marking a historic moment in the waste industry's shift towards zero-emission fleets.
