By Jim Gibbins - 1st December 2020
USA - Cummins Inc of Columbus, Indiana, which began developing its fuel cell and related technologies more than 20 years ago, is continuing to invest in developing fully integrated fuel cell powertrains, fuel cell range-extender powertrains and stationary fuel cell systems (see article on P4).
Fuel cells provide zero tailpipe emissions, instantaneous torque, excellent range, and rapid refuelling. Additionally, Cummins sees availability of increased subsidies and incentives focused on hydrogen-based technologies and infrastructure. The technology can be applied across multiple transport sectors – key projects are detailed below.
