Volvo Trucks is making significant strides towards incorporating hydrogen-powered combustion engines into its fleet, with plans for road testing to commence in 2026 and commercialization targeted by 2029. These trucks, utilizing green hydrogen derived from renewable energy sources, are seen as pivotal in Volvo Trucks' quest for carbon neutrality and reduced carbon emissions. Jan Helmgren, the general manager of product management and quality at Volvo Truck, highlighted the expected performance and reliability of these hydrogen-powered trucks, emphasizing their low carbon dioxide emissions compared to diesel counterparts. By utilizing high-pressure direct injection technology, these trucks aim to enhance energy efficiency and power output while minimizing fuel consumption. Volvo's commitment to greener transportation solutions is further demonstrated by the categorization of these hydrogen trucks as 'emission-free vehicles' under new EU standards. The introduction of these hydrogen combustion engine trucks complements Volvo's existing range of electric trucks and further underlines the company's dedication to sustainable transport solutions.
