Gautam Adani’s group said it will deploy hydrogen fuel cell operated trucks for mining logistics and transportation as part of its decarbonization plan.
This collaboration marks Asia’s first planned hydrogen powered mining truck.
While AEL will lead the demonstration project, Ballard — an industry leading PEM fuel cell engine manufacturer — will supply the FCmoveTM fuel cell engine for the hydrogen truck. Ashok Leyland, one of the largest manufacturers of buses in the world, will provide the vehicle platform and technical support.
The hydrogen powered mining truck will weigh 55 tons, have three hydrogen tanks, a 200-km working range, and powered by Ballard’s 120 kW PEM fuel cell technology.
