Fortescue Metals, an Australian mining and green energy company operating in the Pilbara region, is testing a hydrogen-powered haul truck prototype named 'Europa' for zero emissions. The 240-tonne haul truck, equipped with a 2,700-horsepower engine and electric wheel motors, will be refueled with liquid hydrogen from a nearby hydrogen plant at Fortescue's Green Energy Hub. This initiative aligns with Fortescue's goal of achieving 'real zero' emissions by 2030, eliminating the use of fossil fuels. Europa integrates a Fortescue Zero battery and fuel cells, enabling it to store over 380kg of liquid hydrogen. Fortescue's CEO, Dino Otranto, highlighted the milestone in the partnership with Liebherr, emphasizing the company's plans to develop a fleet of zero-emission haul trucks by 2026. Additionally, Fortescue has introduced Australia's first electric excavator at its Cloudbreak mine site, showcasing its commitment to electrification. The collaboration with Liebherr extends to developing a fully integrated Autonomous Haulage Solution, with a focus on reducing carbon emissions in mining operations. The successful testing of the hydrogen-powered haul truck signals progress towards sustainable mining practices and decarbonization. Fortescue aims to lead in the global green hydrogen economy by embracing innovative technologies and partnering with industry leaders like Liebherr. By incorporating hydrogen fuel cell alternatives and electric vehicles, Fortescue is advancing its sustainability goals and driving towards a cleaner future for mining operations.
