HYSTER RECOGNISED FOR WORLD’S FIRST HYDROGEN-POWERED LADEN CONTAINER HANDLER

The top-pick container handler, which is expected to provide emissions savings of 127 tons of carbon dioxide and around 500kg of criteria pollution per year, is the first of its kind and is currently being piloted at the Fenix Marine Services terminal at the Port of Los Angeles. The truck is powered by two Nuvera 45kw hydrogen fuel cells working in tandem with an on-board lithium-ion battery, with the fuel cells able to power the equipment directly or charge the battery. This allows operators to refuel the truck in about 15 minutes and then operate for 8 to 10 consecutive hours all while producing no harmful emissions – only heat and water.
