Showcase Paper Reveals Innovative Single-stack 200kW Hydrogen Fuel Cell System by Hyzon Motors
Hyzon Unveils Revolutionary 200kW Fuel Cell System for Heavy-Duty Transport
Hyzon Motors Inc., a global leader in fuel cell electric mobility, has announced the development of a groundbreaking single stack 200kW fuel cell system. This system, set to be showcased at the Advanced Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo in Anaheim, CA, from May 1-4, 2023, promises to revolutionise the transport sector.
The new fuel cell system is designed with a focus on commercial vehicles and hydrogen supply infrastructure. Compared to combining two 100kW fuel cell systems, Hyzon's single stack offers a 25% to 30% reduction in total fuel cell system manufacturing costs, volume, and weight. This significant reduction in size and cost is expected to make the technology more accessible and practical for heavy-duty applications.
Hyzon's mission is to supply zero-emission heavy-duty trucks to customers worldwide, aiming to mitigate emissions from diesel transportation. Early testing of Hyzon's 200kW truck showed an approximately 20% increase in miles driven per kg of hydrogen compared to their 120kW truck.
The key benefits of Hyzon's single stack 200kW fuel cell system include higher power density, compactness, and improved thermal management. This architecture enables the fuel cell system to deliver substantial power output (200kW) in a more streamlined, liquid-cooled package. This can enhance vehicle integration and performance efficiency.
The single stack system likely reduces complexity and weight compared to multi-stack or larger conventional fuel cell assemblies, leading to better overall efficiency and easier scalability for commercial heavy-duty vehicles. This benefits vehicle manufacturers by offering a powerful yet compact and efficient fuel cell powertrain option ideal for heavy-duty applications, improving range and operational uptime while maintaining robustness and reliability.
Hyzon is contributing to the adoption of fuel cell electric vehicles through its demonstrated technology advantage, fuel cell system performance, and innovation. The company's strategic network of suppliers played a role in the development of the single stack 200kW fuel cell system.
Hyzon Motors Inc. (NASDAQ: HYZN) published a whitepaper detailing their progress on the single stack 200kW fuel cell system. The whitepaper was published on May 2, 2023, in Rochester, NY.
