Hyzon Motors Inc., Performance Food Group, Inc. and Chart Industries, Inc. announced successful completion of Hyzon's first commercial run with a liquid hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle (LH2 FCEV). Starting in Temple, TX, the truck completed deliveries to eight PFG customers near Dallas, TX, travelling over 540 miles on a 16-hour continuous run including over 100-degree Fahrenheit temperatures. The run ?

further than the distance from Sacramento to San Diego ? demonstrates the viability of on-board liquid hydrogen to fuel long-distance, zero-emission transport. Compared to gaseous hydrogen, the current industry standard, liquid hydrogen allows Hyzon to increase the amount of fuel on board significantly increased energy density, with no changes to vehicle weight or payload.

To maintain the energy-dense liquid state, hydrogen requires cold temperatures of negative 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Hyzon partnered with Chart Industries to develop a tank system capable of storing liquid hydrogen at extremely cold temperatures and delivering it to the fuel cell system at the necessary pressure. Liquid hydrogen as a fuel source has been estimated to be up to $5 per kilogram less expensive all-in to dispense than high-pressure gaseous hydrogen1, which would provide meaningful benefits to fleet owners.
