Hyzon has embarked on the production of its Class 8 200kW hydrogen fuel cell electric truck in collaboration with Fontaine Modification in the US. This partnership will see the transition of the truck from prototype to series production at Hyzon's facility in Bolingbrook. The truck will feature a single stack 200kW fuel cell system, which is noted to be 25% more cost-efficient than using two 110kW systems combined. Hyzon aims to achieve ISO 9001 certification by Q4 2024, marking a significant milestone for decarbonizing heavy-duty industries. Despite facing challenges like potential Nasdaq delisting, Hyzon's CEO, Parker Meeks, expressed optimism about the truck's ability to empower fleet operators in reducing emissions while maintaining power, range, and reliability.
