After announcing the debut of the prototype of its hydrogen truck, now Daimler Truck , the new company & agrave; specializing in heavy vehicles that broke away from Mercedes at the end of 2021, announces that it has also begun to experiment with the possible subsequent evolution, based on the use of hydrogen stored in a liquid and non-gaseous state, on a further experimental vehicle. A project to which the political world also provides support, with Daniela Schmitt, Minister of Economy of Rhineland-Palatinate, who inaugurated the Regional Hydrogen Week a few days ago with a series of initiatives, including a test drive at W & ouml; rth am Rhein

EVEN THE REFUELING? EXPERIMENTAL

PI? HYDROGEN, PI? AUTONOMY

The principle, as for methane, is; that in the liquid state the energy vector has a density; significantly higher energy in relation to the volume compared to hydrogen gas. Consequently, & egrave; possible to transport a greater quantity of hydrogen, which significantly increases the range and therefore allows the vehicle to offer performance comparable to that of a conventional diesel truck.

In the development of the GenH2, the objective is; obtain a standard vehicle capable of offering ranges up to 1,000 km and beyond, making the truck suitable for flexible and demanding uses, especially in the important segment of heavy transport on long distances. The start of mass production of the hydrogen truck is expected for the second half & agrave; of the decade.
