Ballard Power Systems is to provide hydrogen fuel cell modules to power four UPS delivery trucks in the US.
The Centre for Transportation and the Environment (CTE) is managing the Next Generation Fuel Cell Delivery Van Deployment Project, which aims to develop, deploy and eventually commercialise the vehicles.
The completed trucks will be operated in parcel delivery service by UPS in Ontario, California.
PowerHouse Energy (LON:PHE) has developed a proprietary process technology – DMG® – which can utilise waste plastic, end-of-life-tyres, and other waste streams to efficiently and economically convert them into EcoSynthesis gas from which valuable products such as chemical precursors, hydrogen, electricity and other industrial products may be derived. The PowerHouse technology is one of the world’s first proven, modular, hydrogen from waste (HfW) process.
