Recently, the "Zhengzhou Gongyi-Qingdao Port" 800-kilometer hydrogen fuel heavy truck green zero-carbon transportation route, jointly developed by Fengyuan Hydrogen Energy, logistics giant Yuanshang Co., complete vehicle manufacturer Deli Auto, and modification expert Xizhong, officially commenced operation. This marks a new stage in the commercialization of hydrogen-powered heavy trucks in China. As a top performer in domestic hydrogen fuel cell systems, Fengyuan Hydrogen Energy provided the core power source for these hydrogen-powered heavy trucks—the new generation FY06 platform hydrogen fuel cell system.
The hydrogen-powered heavy trucks now in operation are equipped with the FY06 platform system from Fengyuan Hydrogen Energy. With features such as high efficiency, long lifespan, low noise, and zero emissions, the system highlights the advanced nature of hydrogen energy technology and its environmental protection advantages. Notably, the system achieves 100% localisation of core fuel cell components, signifying that China's hydrogen-powered heavy truck fuel cell system technology has matured and the industry chain layout has become more complete.
As hydrogen energy applications in high-speed scenarios mature, hydrogen-powered heavy trucks demonstrate significant advantages over pure electric heavy trucks with the same power capacity. Specifically, the auto body of hydrogen-powered heavy trucks is approximately 20% lighter than that of pure electric heavy trucks. For long-distance heavy-load transportation, their procurement costs and per-unit energy usage costs are more economical. It is estimated that operational costs per kilometer can be reduced by about 15%-20%. This advantage not only significantly improves trunk transportation efficiency but also effectively reduces overall transportation costs, accelerating the transition of road transport vehicles from "energy efficiency dual controls" to "carbon dual controls."
