The BMW Group has acquired two zero-emission fuel cell trucks, as it launches a pilot operation as part of the European H2Haul project, which is aimed at promoting hydrogen mobility in freight transport.
The two vehicles will run between Leipzig, Landsberg and Nuremberg, in order to trial the practicality of this technology.
To allow serial operation, two state-of-the-art hydrogen fuelling stations are being built in Leipzig and Hormersdorf.
They allow rapid refuelling with large quantities of hydrogen, which is crucial to the continuous use of fuel cell trucks in the logistics sector.
The BMW Group is implementing the H2Haul project in cooperation with Iveco, DHL and TEAL Mobility.
