BOLINGBROOK, Ill., October 30, 2024 – Hyzon (NASDAQ: HYZN), a U.S.-based high-performance hydrogen fuel cell system manufacturer and technology developer focused on providing zero-emission power to decarbonize the most demanding industries, today announced the completion of a successful trial of its Class 8 200kW Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV) with TALKE, a leading provider of logistics solutions for the chemical industry. The trial was part of TALKE’s Houston drayage operations at TALKE USA.
“The success of this trial with TALKE aligns with the strong results we’ve seen across the seven other trials of our Class 8 200 kW Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV) truck,” said Hyzon Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Parker Meeks. “These consistent outcomes reinforce our confidence as we move toward full commercial activation, marking an exciting step forward in deploying hydrogen fuel cell solutions at scale.”
Building on the success of its 110kW trial two years ago, the 200kW FCEV truck performed exceptionally well, effortlessly hauling containers with a smooth, dynamic, and impressively quiet operation.
“This trial is a key part of TALKE’s preparations for zero-emission operations and aligns with our ongoing commitment to our global ESG program, #CraftingResponsibleLogistics,” said Richard Heath, TALKE President and CEO.
The successful trial result is part of TALKE’s preparation for potential deployment of a larger fleet of Class 8 FCEV trucks under various grant funding programs, for which Hyzon’s Class 8 200kW FCEVs are being evaluated alongside competitors.
