Hyzon, a U.S.-based hydrogen fuel cell system manufacturer, has successfully completed a trial of its refuse collection Fuel Cell Electric Truck (FCET) in partnership with New Way Trucks and Mt. Diablo Resource Recovery (MDRR) in California. The trial, conducted in cities like Concord, Pittsburg, and Oakley, marks a significant milestone in adopting zero-emission technology for heavy-duty waste and recycling applications. The hydrogen-powered vehicle demonstrated its effectiveness in decarbonizing the waste sector, meeting California's Advanced Clean Fleet requirements. Hyzon's CEO, Parker Meeks, emphasized the potential of hydrogen to drive meaningful decarbonization without compromising performance. The trial showcased Hyzon's high-performance hydrogen fuel cell systems, providing consistent power over 125 miles with increased fuel efficiency compared to traditional diesel trucks. The partnership between Hyzon, New Way Trucks, and MDRR aims to set a new standard in the waste and recycling industry by promoting environmental stewardship and innovation. The successful trial highlighted the potential of hydrogen as a sustainable, zero-emission alternative for heavy-duty applications. Hyzon's commitment to advancing hydrogen fuel cell technology is evident in its ongoing Class 8 200kW FCET trial program, targeting customer trials with major fleets across North America by early 2025. The collaboration between industry experts and technology leaders like Hyzon and New Way Trucks is driving the industry forward by providing innovative, sustainable solutions for waste haulers looking to achieve zero emissions goals and decarbonization initiatives.
