New York State is making $8 million available to support the development of hydrogen, ammonia, and other alternative fuel technologies aimed at reducing emissions from heavy-duty transportation and other sectors that remain difficult to electrify.

Toyota Motor North America and Hyroad Energy have reached a definitive agreement to deploy 40 hydrogen fuel-cell Class 8 trucks in Southern California.

Hyroad Energy has signed a commercial fueling agreement with Total Hydrogen Solutions to support a new hydrogen refueling station serving Class 8 fuel-cell-electric trucks in Texas.

A Canadian-built hydrogen fuel cell truck designed for the country’s heavier payload demands made its debut at Truck World, with executives and government officials touting it as a step toward both decarbonization and domestic manufacturing strength.

The BZA375 delivers up to 375 kW of continuous net power — more than 500 hp — from a single system, eliminating the need for the dual-system configurations used in earlier designs.

Toronto-based Elemental Trucks says it has completed development of what it describes as Canada’s first commercially available 63.5-tonne hydrogen fuel-cell-electric truck, positioning the company to enter the heavy-haul, long-distance segment of the zero-emission market.
