Описание:

In the USA, researchers at Oregon State University are working with Daimler Truck North America to develop a hydrogen fuel cell-powered heavy-duty truck for regional and long-distance transport. Developed as part of Daimler’s “SuperTruck” project, the tractor is expected to provide ranges of 600 miles (965 kilometres).

The fuel cell electric truck (FCET) is to achieve the 600-mile range without sacrificing payload thanks to new power electronics, engines and energy management tools. The two researchers from Oregon State University, Yue Cao and Alan Fern have received $860,000 for their role in the four-year Daimler SuperTruck project.

The Super Truck project is part of a larger $162 million initiative granted by the US Department of Energy (DOE) to improve efficiency and reduce carbon emissions among cars, trucks, and off-road vehicles. In the latest round of Super Truck funding, the department awarded a total of $127 million to five heavy-vehicle manufacturers. This is the third round since the DOE Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy launched the initiative in 2009.
