Hyzon Paves the Way for Zero-Emission Heavy-Duty Transportation with Class 8 Fuel Cell Truck Production Milestone
Key Ideas
  • Hyzon, in collaboration with Fontaine Modification, marks the Start of Production (SOP) of its Class 8 200kW Fuel Cell Electric Truck (FCET), a significant step towards decarbonizing heavy-duty industries.
  • The innovative FCET, featuring a single stack 200kW fuel cell system, is lighter, smaller, and more cost-efficient, meeting the operational demands of heavy-duty road transport while reducing emissions.
  • The production milestone signifies Hyzon's transition to series production at its Bolingbrook facility, with expectations to achieve ISO 9001 certification by Q4 2024, solidifying its commitment to providing zero-emission power across North America.
  • Hyzon's dedication to deploying fuel cell technology in commercial vehicles and stationary power applications reflects its role in the clean energy transition, positioning itself at the forefront of the hydrogen revolution.
Hyzon, a U.S.-based hydrogen fuel cell system manufacturer and technology developer, announced a significant milestone with the Start of Production (SOP) of its Class 8 200kW Fuel Cell Electric Truck (FCET) in collaboration with Fontaine Modification. This development marks a new chapter in providing zero-emission alternatives to diesel for heavy-duty industries. The 200kW FCET features a single stack fuel cell system that is lighter, smaller, and more cost-efficient, making it a powerful vehicle that meets the operational demands of heavy-duty road transport. Hyzon's partnership with Fontaine Modification for vehicle assembly and production in Charlotte, North Carolina, ensures that each truck is road-ready, further emphasizing its commitment to reducing emissions without compromising power, range, or reliability. The company's Bolingbrook facility, one of the largest fuel cell systems production facilities in the U.S., will now transition to series production, with plans to achieve ISO 9001 certification by Q4 2024. Hyzon's focus on deploying fuel cell technology in Class 8 commercial vehicles and refuse collection vehicles across North America, along with expanding into stationary power applications, highlights its pivotal role in the clean energy transition. By introducing innovative solutions and spearheading the hydrogen revolution, Hyzon is paving the way for a sustainable future in the heavy-duty transportation industry.
