Anglo American and Hype Revolutionize Clean Transport with Hydrogen Taxis in Paris and Brussels
Key Ideas
- Anglo American launches H2 Moves Europe initiative to promote hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle technology and deploys zero-emission FCEV taxi fleets in Paris and Brussels in partnership with Hype.
- The collaboration aims to showcase the benefits of FCEVs, enhance range and refueling infrastructure, and contribute to decarbonizing transport while reducing pressure on battery mineral supply chains.
- Platinum, produced by Anglo American and used in FCEV fuel cells, enables clean electricity generation, allowing FCEVs to match the convenience of traditional vehicles with zero emissions.
Anglo American has introduced the H2 Moves Europe program to accelerate the adoption of hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) technology in clean transport. In collaboration with Hype, the leading FCEV taxi operator, Anglo American is deploying two new fleets of zero-emission FCEVs in Paris and Brussels, totaling 300 vehicles. The initiative builds upon the success of the H2 Moves Berlin pilot project and aims to highlight the advantages of FCEVs in car fleets like taxis and buses, offering relief to battery mineral supply chains. Platinum produced by Anglo American plays a crucial role in FCEV fuel cells, catalyzing the reaction between hydrogen and oxygen to power the vehicles with clean electricity. The FCEVs can be refueled in five minutes and offer ranges of up to 650km with zero exhaust emissions. This collaboration marks a significant step towards promoting hydrogen-powered transport globally and supporting sustainability efforts in the automotive industry.
