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. Die BMW Group startet mit der Übernahme von zwei emissionsfreien Brennstoffzellen-Lkw einen Pilotbetrieb im Rahmen des europäischen H2Haul-Projekts zur Förderung der Wasserstoffmobilität im Güterverkehr. Die beiden Fahrzeuge kommen im Realbetrieb zwischen Leipzig, Landsberg und Nürnberg zum Einsatz, um die Praxistauglichkeit dieser Technologie zu erproben. Um den Serienbetrieb zu ermöglichen, werden in Leipzig und Hormersdorf zwei hochmoderne Wasserstofftankstellen errichtet. Sie ermöglichen ein schnelles Nachtanken großer Mengen Wasserstoff, was für den kontinuierlichen Einsatz der Brennstoffzellen-Lkw im Logistikverkehr entscheidend ist. Die BMW Group realisiert das H2HAUL-Projekt in Zusammenarbeit mit Iveco, DHL und TEAL Mobility.
